Rubbish at all other social media, probably worse here. It’ll be mostly rap, sports, film and nonsense.
Don’t think I’ve heard anyone really mention this new Myka 9 x Blu album yet but it is GREAT. One of the best surprises of the year imo. open.spotify.com/album/2LtAFM...

For those who partake, this is comfortably the worst FIFA game they’ve ever made btw.

The worst ever meta, the most frustrating piece of shit I’ve ever experienced.

Doesn’t just need a patch it needs burning at a demonic ceremonial gravesite.

MJ Why You Wanna Trip On Me is so mad because it’s SO vibey that he’ll be singing about poverty and I’m there making screw faces like I’m hearing the best Conway The Machine verse ever.

Currently got a sore throat and I’ve got one of those situations where like the where my throat and roof of my mouth are itchy, so I’m walking round the house making my noises like a vomiting cat to try and get rid of it

Thou - Summit (2010)

More and more Thou. Aren’t all of their album covers absolutely boss?

More Thou.

Thou - Tyrant (2007)

Their debut. I bought a slew of their albums in one swoop and listened to them for weeks on end, not dipped in for years but they’re still great. One of the rare sort of doom-sludge metal bands I’ve found consistently engaging.

Timecop1983 - Childhood Memories (2014)

Not listened to this for a decade, it’s vibey as fuck and about as good as these synthwave 80s pastiches could ever get. Huge fan. It’s made me want to listen to everything he’s done since that I missed.

Gost - The Night Stalker EP (2013)

More of the same re the other one from him, this one is definitely horror influenced and does its job nicely as a modern synthwave reimagining of 80s horror OSTs.

AG Da Coroner - Crushed Grapes (2013)

An obscenely New York album. Was from 2013 but it does feel late 90s in the delivery of the emcee and the beats. Enjoyed listening to it for first time probably in a decade. Silly cover.

Gost - Skull (2013)

Daft Punk for aggressive goth metalheads who think they’re somehow above Daft Punk. They’re not. Daft Punk are great. Gost is good too. Dark synth wave shit.

Hayze - The Smoking Section (2013)

No prizes for what the subject matter is from that emcee name and album combination but it’s good! (Most weed rap is good tbf, incredibly high hit rate) Apathy features. A couple really nice songs on here.

Eddie B - Horsepower (2013)

Eddie B sounding lovely over La musica de Harry Fraud. The beats almost by design take front & centre here but they’re well used, and there’s some nice features from Action Bronson, Apathy, Meyhem Lauren, Shabaam Sahdeeq etc.

Curly Castro - Fidel (2013)

Long before the great success of ShrapKnel with PremRock, Curly Castro was already making really solid albums, including this one.

Roc Marciano - The Pimpire Strikes Back (2013)

It’s Roc Marciano. I don’t need to say anything here about why I bought it or what I think about it.

Julia Donaldson is a pussy for not completing the Gruffalo trilogy.

She had two classics back to back w Gruffalo and Gruffalo’s Child and like Dre w Detox just felt too scared to drop another in the set.

PackFM - Featured Material Vol. 4 (2012)

To this day apparently the last project he released? PackFM was a great battle rapper and an emcee linked w Tonedeff & QN5 and this is a mish-mash of his work (features, songs etc) around the early 2010s.

Co$$ (n/k/a Cashus King) - Greyer Skies (2013)

Flabbergasted that this guy wasn’t big. This mixtape is so polished, well produced & so accomplished w the rhymes. It feels like a really good major label backed lyrical rap album, deserved so many plaudits.

Perturbator - Dangerous Days (2014)

More synths. A policeman with a metallic cock and balls driving around a dangerous city at night playing this as chases dafties. The vocal tracks on this are superb and stand out.

DJ Harrison - 4.Dollah.Feel.Good (2014)

A relatively early release from a musician who makes beats with the same organic authenticity & soul of a Karriem Riggins. Think this came out just before Stashboxxx made him more of a household name. Great vibes.

Little Simz - E.D.G.E. (2014)

Not to be that annoying music guy but I was on the Little Simz wave even years before this one, and this one was years before she really broke out too. This is a mad early example of why she was always going to make it big.

Savon - Always & Forever (2014)

A great early album from another producer who has gone on to be bigger since with his work alongside Waldo but this album from a decade ago furrows that same ‘Soulection’ adjacent sound as Sango did. Strong re-spin value.
