Whitney is that day also. Pretty stacked
I played the hell out of that first Whitney record. It sounds like 70s AM radio. They were supposed to play Forecastle in 2017 and cancelled the day of the event. wtf.

It's Blood Orange for me unless something really grabs my ear tomorrow. Not optimistic for the new Chance album, but maybe it'll be a pleasant surprise!
E-40 has a new project dropping tomorrow, and this isn't really at all related to the thread but I heard someone on a basketball podcast today say "Pascal Siakam" while doing an E-40 impression and it was delightful
1a. The YBN Cordae album is very good, and incredibly polished for a debut project. 1b. Last year I wrote a song to a beat that I found on YouTube, and Cordae uses the EXACT beat on the song "Been Around". I was listening to the album and when the intro came in thought that my phone got put on shuffle or something. I think I made a better track though.

ya'll should check out ada lea's what we say in private if you like that sorta vulnerable, confessional female indie rock sound, but also want some wilco-esque experimental sounds, dissonant guitar, and atypical song structures. it's near the top for me this month.

I have a hot take I need to share and this is the only place I can think to do it. The Big Day is hip hop's Father of the Bride.
Fourth album from an industry veteran... aggressively upbeat sparkly production... gimmick feature... twice as long as it needs to be... other examples.
Both albums need to be pared down, but after listening to the Big Day a few times, I think FotB is better. There are some good-to-great moments and lines in TBD but it's about twice as long as it needs to be and the features are weak, esp in comparison to his last two releases. Why is Nicki Minaj getting two features on an album in 2019?
Nicki Minaj put out a platinum album last year and regularly features on really popular artists' stuff.
Eh. She's still past her prime and her stock's on the decline.
I mean, yeah, but plenty of people are past their prime. She's still very popular in 2019. She went from being the biggest female rapper in the world to arguably the second-biggest, and she's probably the most successful one of all-time.
