| Cosmic Church Ylistys | 3.5 |
| Armand Hammer Race Music | 4.0 |
| This album boasts variety, focus, and intelligence, while managing to sound badass at the same time. Billy Woods still sports his unorthodox flow, which always takes it's getting used to, but it's more endearing in it's finality. Elucid just nails every track so hard and there are some awesome features, specifically Busdriver on the song New Museum. This is easily my favorite hip-hop album of 2013, so I'm glad I caught it before the year was up. Fav songs: Willie Bosket, No Roses, New Museum |
| Plini Sweet Nothings | 2.5 |
| this is metal elevator music. your cat will love it. |
| Deltron 3030 Event II | 2.0 |
| I didn't like this on my first listen, but I knew I probably wouldn't. I always find Del's flow sounds awkward and forced when I listen to new material from him. It always take a fair bit of listens before I can comprehend it. I think if anything, it's an advantage, that he can do some pretty crazy things with his flow. Some of the more cringe worthy parts end up being my favorites after a while. The production is pretty good, but it's pretty up tempo. Overall the album is not as good as the debut but it's a different flavor, from a brand I enjoy consuming. Still haven't settled on a rating. |
