DVSN (Mike C told me about this one and it's a real between the sheets classic)
Vince Staples EP is good
Schoolboy Q
Drake Views from the 6 grew on me, he usually starts his albums out with a couple of weak songs and this is no exception
Life of Pablo was a'ight, couple good songs
Wknd was weak AF!
Albums I will probably get into but haven't fully checked out yet:
Danny Brown (maybe - seems to rock-y for me. I like my rap and rock separate and actually I don't really like rock too much)
Beyoncé (hey, put it on Spotify!)
Miranda Lambert (on a friend's recommendation, it's a double disk and I didn't make it all the way through)
Tribe Record
Chance record (his baby talking annoys me, but he is obviously rad)
Frank Ocean (so meander-y, but I need to listen a couple more times)
What about you?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I think the only newish album i heard this year is the 21 Pilots with the Blurryface song.
ReplyDeleteI liked the Globs live so I'm guessing I'd like the album too
I think I listened to maybe 6 records that came out this year and they're all good. I only listen to good records, I guess. Drug Apts, The Globs, Jay's tape, Ghoul School, this dude/band Berwanger who used to be in bands I liked in the late 90's/early 2000's, and this band called Martha from Durham, England, that I kinda wonder if Scott would like but he might actually not like at all.
ReplyDeleteLet him know!

ummm you should at least watch Lemonade. I think it is well worth the money. It's, in my opinion, a total masterpiece. Maybe it just came into my life in the right moment, but it sent me on a crazy emotional journey (a rare situation for me when viewing things).
ReplyDeleteI really love Solange and think the songs are lovely, but have not seemed to be able to get through the album more than once. It gets a little sleepy for me maybe? I dunno, I need to keep on trying. Or maybe with this Trump shit i need something with a little more active fire and anger.
Keep trying with Frank Ocean. It's in my top 5 for sure.
