Homeboy Sandman - Veins
New 10 track album, picks up where the last album left off. Iff you like what Boy Sand does, you'll like this.
If you've never listened to him before, you'll like this. Different range of producers on board as well which keeps it fresh.

To listen to: Kendrick and the new Altars album from Sadistik which is getting real good reviews.

Jay-sus, does anyone even breath of this track

I should add that I've finally listened to DAMN, a few times now, and I don't know where I stand on it. I certainly don't see it as the greatest thing ever like it's being described by many outlets after 1 listen.
There are soem great songs on it, but there is some stuff on there which I have come to call 'Drake songs' which I do not dig at all.
And there are some songs that are pretty normal or average that are well skipable.
It sounds like he was trying to make a more commercial album, or an album that is more easily digestable than his last. I like that there are more West Coast-y songs on it.

In the past his albums have taken a while for me to appreciate, I don't think I'm even there yet with TPAB. This may be the same.

There are tracks that I didn't like during my first few listens like Element, but repeat playthroughs shows it's lasting quality.
I thought "Love" was the only real kind of Drake song on it, maybe the Rihanna track too.

That MC Eiht x Premo album has been in the works for years! Looking forward to it.

Here's a song that just popped up on my FB newsfeed, nice rappidy rap rapping song from a former basketball player.

I went out for a 30 minute walk there and started to listen to Brother Ali - All The Beauty In This Whole Life.

By golly it's a good one and I've only got 10 tracks into it. Lyrically, Ali is not ripping mics, but he left that behind a long time ago. In the past he's come accross as preachy, he's left that behind.
From the moment the first song kicks in, there is an instant uplifting feeling, a spring in my step so to speak. The production in the first 3rd is happy and bouncy, Ant's production has stepped up a notch. The lyrics are simple and effective and uplifting.
The second third is a bit more minimilistic, more honest and reflective in a way that only Brother Ali can write and vocalise. His TSA story is deep, but yet a little chuckle by him adds a sense of relief from how deep the story is.
I'm looking forward to the last 3rd of the album, I'll be doing this on my walk tomorrow, it's where I'm getting my best listening done these days.

Boom_Bap

I listened to the rest of the Brother Ali album, it's wonderful. The final third takes elements from the first 2 thirds and mixes them together beautifully.

I don't think it will ever be a classic, but it's one that will be a joy to listen to from start to finish any time I put it on.

Also, full tracklist for Snoops new album;

The few songs from that Snoop album are just alright, I'd happily listen, but they don't amaze me at all if that makes sense.

The Mount Kushmore song sounds deadly though from the snippet. West Coast bounce plus Redman = dope.

Loving this from Snoop!!

Boom_Bap

The beat in that stomps, Snoop is only alright on it.
I would have loved to hear Tray Dee do a bit of rapping on it as well, he was dope a few years back.

Snoop still a bit laid back but yes agree on the beat.

Album out today, will be picking it up later and share some thoughts

Vince Staples back at it again :cool:

Boom_Bap

That Vince Staples song is f*cking amazing. Listened to it back to back about 5 or 6 times last night.

Another Beast of a track from MC Eihts new album

Had to remove that link melty, it's a Tidal release only so no sharing here

Not a 2017 release, but Lil' Ugly Mane's "Mista Thug Isolation" LP is having its 5 year anniversary this year so I got this on the wax from Boomkat record shop last week.
I f**king love this record. Its so good. On the vinyl it sounds unreal. Worth the purchase if you have a player. Limited edition but they still have copies up there. Highly Highly recomended. Digtals also up on his bandcamp

I was just about to post it, 3 new tracks of the 25th year re-release of Death Certificate

That track is savage

Hard as nails
Love it!

Boom_Bap

Just thought I'd post this here as it appears to have gone under the radar. There are loads of Binary Star and One B Lo fans out there and they released a new album a week or so ago.

I haven't listened to it yet, but no harm in jamming up the bandcamp link where you can give it a listen
