Rich Young Ni$$a$ by Migos

When I was growing up we considered where these guys are from the sticks but now it’s a part of the endless Atlanta urban sprawl. Not even in the city limits it went from **** white trash to something hoodlike, I guess.

This is an entertaining “mix tape” by trap mumble rappers Migos. They back up their Gwinnett County ghetto cred with actual real life criminal behavior. Reading up on them I was surprised by how incredibly popular this band is. I think it’s weak sauce to spell nigg ers ni$$a$ but I’m sure they don’t care. They’d probably suck if they did care, honestly. Quality Dirty South. I’m glad people still chop and screw these releases and put it on youtube. Migos are part of a tradition of less talented rappers being better than more talented rappers. Eat your hearts out Rakim wannabes; it no longer matters.

Year in rewind one year behind: The 2016 retrospective continues...

Away with you by Mary Halvorson Octet

Maybe the hottest guitarist going in the free jazz scene everyone want to collaborate with 37 year old Mary Halvorson. With an incredible ear for tidy arrangements and making space for everyone she is an awesome band leader. Everyone gets showcased, every note fits in, egos are checked at the door. This record is a pleasure and a treasure.
