This album is part of the KAYTRANADA kick (in anticipation of the new Amine collab album!) and was wholly disappointing as my first IDK project. I knew IDK from one song on this album (Taco) and more favorably from Pradadabang with Young Thug. There are so many people that could do better than IDK managed

Album Tiers, Month 3! Each album is categorized and given a one sentence recap. Full blurbs available on the new listens page, and monthly wrap-up playlist on main page under playlists. March’s Playlist. Fucking Great/God Tier: Foo Fighters – Foo Fighters: My favorite Foo Fighters album, bolstered by Dave being a one-man show here (and

Classic album, quintessentially 90’s, West Coast, but still holds up. It does feel a bit front-loaded though, the back half is kind of weak. Regardless, what more can I say about this album that has not already been said? Maybe that it’s the origin of Deez Nutz? Favorite songs: Fuck Wit Dre Day, Let Me

Super smooth beats meshed with Larry June’s laid back delivery make for a nice collaborative effort between the MC and one of my favorite producers, Alchemist. I will say that I think this album lacks a bit of drive throughout it, Larry June kind of raps like he doesn’t give a fuck about what he’s

What more is there to say about this? My first full listen to one of the most iconic albums by Blues legend B.B. King. Aside from a bit of strangely placed misogynistic lyrics here and there (but thankfully quite sparse and condensed), this is a fantastic Blues album, and even my uninformed Blues ears know

Yes, I know his name is capitalized. If this ever gets back to KAYTRANADA blame it on WordPress formatting. Revisited this album from one of my favorite producers of all time, a Canadian man named Louis. KAYTRANADA’s beats have a really distinct feel to them – often coming off like a mix of house with

I can’t believe this is the first time that this is gracing my ears. For a slight bit of background, Flaming Lips are a psych rock band from Oklahoma that have been around for many times. If you’re like me, which I bet a good bit of you are, you probably have heard of them

If you know me well, I know what you’re thinking. How in the fuck does this fit the criteria? One of the better albums from my favorite artist is on this list? Let it be known that: 1) I have listened to this album before, but yes, only once and 2) I know some of

I was a bit underwhelmed by this one from Freddie. I absolutely adore madlib as a producer and their most recent collab is definitely noteworthy, highly recommend. However, this one fell a bit short for me, maybe just because it was Freddie at an earlier stage in his rap career. However, I think the beats

Known over time for Crew, At What Cost by Goldlink is a very unique album with some unique, varied sounds. Poppier cuts (Crew, Have You Seen That Girl), songs that make you wanna move (Meditation, which btw, Kaytranada is so fucking good everytime), laid back songs (Summatime, Herside Story), and then some Indie sounding songs,
