Everything Everything is quickly shaping up to be one of my new favourites, really liked their latest album Get To Heaven, especially this track:
Tame Impala's latest album, Currents, was also pretty great. Lot of synth action going on in that record. I still like Lonerism the most though.
Travi$ Scott's debut album Rodeo didn't impress me at all when I first listened to it, but it really grew on me after a few listens. Melodic trap bangers galore.
It's hard to say why I've listened to this Hey QT track so much lately, but it's just so fun. It's so artificial, plastic and absurd, but I really really like it. The label(?) behind it, PC Music, has a lot of other artists/projects like this. Check out Hannah Diamond or A. G. Cook if you're a weirdo like me and actually enjoy this type of stuff.
Post Malone is definitely going to be huge this year, he dropped a few hits last year (White Iverson, Too Young) and collaborated with the likes of Kanye West, 50 Cent and Gucci Mane already. His lyrics definitely aren't the most unique out there, but I really like his sound.
Lil Ugly Mane dropped the much anticipated Oblivion Access, his final album. Very grimy, gritty and not that easy to listen to as a whole. An appropriate sendoff to the Lil Ugly Mane persona. If you haven't heard of Lil Ugly Mane before I recommend checking out Mista Thug Isolation, it's his most famous project and one of my all-time favourites.
I've recently been delving into the depths of southern rap, started with UGK (and of course I'm already familiar with Outkast) and through some of their tracks landed on some Pimp C solo projects. Man, this track is such a great banger.
Kanye West released a new track and it's pretty great in my opinion. Reminds me of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy a bit. The snippet at the end sounds really good too!
I haven't previously listened to much of RJD2's work, but his latest single is really good. Funky stuff.
One of my favourite songs from one of my favourite bands just got an absolutely amazing (I use that word too much) music video and I couldn't be happier.
