Obviously I need to listen to it, but it's not a surprise.

i always feel off the mark with recs, but this could be cool. i'll throw out a few recent drops that i'm sure are on spotify:

sd - just the beginning
isaiah rashad - the sun's tirade
cj fly - flytrap

the sun's tirade is still like, one of the best hip-hop records to come out this year. i think the production will be up ki's alley.

wasn't a fan of CJ's new project tho, i really liked the way eye see it, just wasn't impressed with the new direction he or pro era seem to be taking.

oh with that being said give 1999 by Joey Bada$$ a spin ki.

In the same vein as The Weeknd and Kid Cudi in regards to being an album that I was completely surprised by, but absolutely loved. I'm diving into more Big Sean because of it.

this album was ****.

the sun's tirade was one of my favorite releases this year. i've yet to check out any of cj's previous projects (i'll make a note to get on that); i kind of just threw that rec in there on a whim because it was in my recent downloads, but i enjoyed it. it was a toss up between that and lovell's red teenage melody as a low priority, taste-gauge rec, but concept vague would be a better introduction to lovell, so i nixed that.

Chance The Rapper - Acid Rap (2013)
Recommended by: TristanGeoff

Quick Thoughts: As much as I like the music, the voice just isn't for me. Same problem as Danny Brown. Overall, a solid album.

NWA - Straight Outta Compton (1988)
Recommended by: Violet

Quick Thoughts: I've never listened to NWA or at least a full album by them, but god damn I have been missing out. I really need to dive deep into their catalog to get a full understanding of their music. This being a debut, it's ****ing fantastic. Thanks Violet!
