Injury Reserve - By the Time I Get to Phoenix
NR

by the time i get to phoenix πŸ–ΌοΈβ€οΈβ˜€οΈπŸ§πŸ»

mind-boggling (middle nine)

pros -

while not entirely a posthumous tribute to late bandmember groggs, by the time i get to phoenix taps into exactly what the late rapper would've wanted. this is a testament to their collective vision as a trio, not a duo. groggs chose the title
(cue the isaac hayes), groggs told them to cook up some weird shit, and that's exactly what they've done. groggs has about 3 performances, if i had to put a ... read more

Baby Keem - The Melodic Blue
NR

the melodic blue πŸͺ‘πŸŒˆπŸŒŠ
it's pretty good (lower seven)

pros -

baby keem busts out of the garage with a truckload of unparalleled charisma. he seems to have inherited this from his cousin, who infamously dethroned radiohead on multiple album ranking charts and may be someone you know (this is a joke)

hence, keem's flows and boisterous vocal performances are much improved from the already great die for my bitch. keem's vocal performances in the crooning side of things have shot up ... read more

Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
NR

my beautiful dark twisted fantasy πŸ‘¨πŸΎπŸ‘„πŸ¦πŸ‘©πŸΌπŸŸ₯

mind-boggling (middle nine)

pros -

what can i say about this record? from the very first time i listened to it in it's entirety, it gave me an experience unparalleled by any album before or after it. not even to pimp a butterfly, or something of that vein gave me the same euphoric and triumphant rush.

behind the skin of red wine and leather, my beautiful dark twisted fantasy has running lore and conceptuality. it resides in ... read more

SOPHIE - OIL OF EVERY PEARL'S UN-INSIDES
NR

oil of every pearl's un-insides 🧚‍β™€οΈπŸŒƒ

it's amazing (middle eight)

pros -

very reassuring in tone, as in the album is quite comforting in nature. also, the more synth balladesque songs are transcendental and some of the best music i've heard from the last decade

sophie's sound sticks out from her contemporaries. the late producer makes tunes that don't conform to most pop stereotypes, and if they do, they are stereotypes she invented herself

most of the writing on the album ... read more

ODD EYE CIRCLE - Max & Match
NR

max and match 🧍🏻‍β™€οΈπŸ§πŸ»‍β™€οΈπŸ§πŸ»‍♀️

it's amazing (upper eight)

pros -

filled with life, energy and what not. this thing sounds like sugar in the form of music if that makes any sense on paper
oddly enough, tracks like odd and odd front are nearly psychedelic in tone. there's something ever so addicting about them

the three girls put out pretty commendable vocal performances, and given that there's a lot of resources within the trio themselves, not all of ... read more
