    Tyler, The Creator released IGOR today.
    It's not exactly a rap album, there is limited rapping on it. But, it's pretty damn good after 1 listen.

    Yeah had a quick listen through it this morning and thought it was good. Pharrell vibes.

    Wu Tang Clan: Of Mics and Men
    There is a 4 part documentary from the Wu which is excellent. I'd highly recommend watching. There is footage from when they are starting out up to present day. It covers how they got together, how they 'split', ODB, the Cilvaringz album.
    I was hooked while watching it.


    There was also as EP release to accompany it, need to check it out.

    I'm not coming across a lot of quality new hip hop but Sadistik's - Haunted Gardens has been on repeat in my car bar the first song on the album. Absolutely classic. Yelawolf Trunk Muzik 3 was a big letdown.

    Haven't yet listened to Tyler the Creator's new album but it got a decent review on Pitchfork, I plan to give it a spin on the commute home

    Enjoyed IGOR, very different to Flowerboy. Some songs sound futuristic and other worldly in terms of production, reminded me of Yeezus at times. Then some songs were a lot softer, but at the same time Tyler sounded aggressive at times and went thru a range of emotions. Good album, more layers to it for sure that I didn't catch on the first listen.

    YGs new song is poor

    He's an album out soon called 4Real 4Real. Hopefully it's not as bad as Stay Dangerous

    I was somewhat wrong. It's getting decent reviews.

    Apparently he has some nice send offs for Nipsey Hussle

    Review below;

    The new Flying Lotus album is top notch. Very impressed with it.


    New Chance and Ed Sheeran song is pants.


    New song from Joyner Lucas and Logic is fairly decent, the beat may get a bit repetitive.

    Is he working on an album for a while now? Or delayed or something.

    There was big talk of him after his impressive feature in Slim Shadys album last year.

    I've heard on the Joe Budden podcast that the new Jim Jones album is supposed to be ace.
    But, I've never been a Cam/Diplomats/Jones fan, I just never really got the music. The guys on the podcast are big fans and highly regard it.


    They played some snippets, and it sounded good. I'm going to listen off the back of that.

    Wonder what period of his career the material is from.

    The good thing about the first one was it didn't sound like a collection of unrelated, unreleased songs. In fact it might be his most cohesive album after Illmatic.

    I heard someone say in a podcast that it's probably the album that he was recording when got side tracked by the Kanye album.
    I don't think that it's necessarily going to be older vintage Nas stuff.
    But there was talk of recording an album with Swizz Beats around that time, so could see some of that.

    Anyone listened to Chase by Aaron May? Young rapper from Texas, very easy to listen to and really smooth flow. Reminded me a lot of J.Cole if I'm honest, definitely one to watch.

    Even if you think it's terrible, it's a short album at least :D

    Anyone disappointed with this years releases so far? Just a general question.

    Yes, in general. Haven't been many big releases from big artists at all. Still no whispers on Kendrick putting something out?

    It's a slow year alright.


    Hopefully 96 Mentality by Zilla Rocca can save it. Listening to it now after finishing the Chase album.

    Disappointing, won't be going near it.

    I've had two Aaron May tracks in my playlists the last few months. 'Let Go' & 'Ride', he is quality and only 17 years old. I got the J.Cole vibes from him too.
