WITHERED or Paid Programming by BONES
Laurie Anderson - Strange Angels
Terraja Peyote asesino.
I see a lot of my favorites in that list. Some of my top albums I don't see:
- Negro Swan and Cupid Deluxe by blood orange
- IV by badbadnotgood
- injury reserve by injury reserve
- Don't You by Wet (pretty significant vibe shift from the others, maybe you'll like it)
Phantomime - Mori Calliope
Suite for Ma Dukes by Miguel Atwood Ferguson. Live recording of a Dilla tribute concert with a 60 piece orchestra. Stakes Is High with Posdnuos and Talib Kweli is a standout. Album is on Bandcamp and the full concert video is on YouTube.
In the World: From Natchez to New York by Olu Dara. He's the father of Nas (who guests on the album) and an accomplished jazz musician in his own right, but this isn't a jazz album. Okra is in my top three songs about food.
Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway. A mashup of De La Soul and Fela Kuti. "Music is the weapon. Music is the future. Music is the weapon of the future."
Clube da Esquina 2
A Tribe Called Quest - Beats, Rhymes, & Life
Generation Why by Zhu. I don't really care for most of Zhu's music, but this album I really enjoy. It's similar in style to 808s and heartbreak.
