What albums will you be listening to?

Im confused by tom morello's album, didnt it come out during the summer? I thought I had seen it for sale on google play then didnt see it last week. Ill check it out if its actually available. I guess Ill listen to Quavo's album too.

i figure there will be some releases missing but it should not be difficult to find one spot that has most.

I only recognize the following artists, which includes Quavo, and I don't even f*ck with the Migos like that.

Calvin Johnson - A Wonderful Beast
Elvis Costello & The Impostors - Look Now
Eric Clapton - Happy Xmas
Graham Parker - Cloud Symbols
Quavo - Quavo Huncho

I feel basic AF. Am I missing out on anything? I normally listen to soul, jazz, funk and a little hip-hop. Sometimes indie and rock but those aren't my favorite genres.
13291555, i only know calvin johnson the football player lol
Posted by mista k5, Fri Oct-12-18 10:33 AM
im guessing its not the same dude
13291676, really feeling the Quavo and Ella Mai albums.

13291678, RE: really feeling the Quavo and Ella Mai albums.
Posted by BlakStaar, Fri Oct-12-18 06:58 PM
Ella Mai isn’t even on the list. Makes me wonder what else is missing? I’m not part of her core demographic but I’ll stop hating/being a music snob and check it out.
13291680, i had low expectations for both LPs and was surprised by both.
Posted by PROMO, Fri Oct-12-18 07:10 PM
13291681, wait, did it come out this week? I literally listened to it last week
Posted by Rjcc, Fri Oct-12-18 07:12 PM
in google play music

13293273, quavo was eh
Posted by mista k5, Mon Oct-22-18 12:39 PM
not bad but it really just seemed like a lot of the same.

only songs that stood out were champagne rose, go all the way and bubble gum.

i did like the beat on go all the way and champagne rose might stay in rotation.

he should had made a short album if he wasnt going to branch off the formula.
13294824, quavo has grown on me
Posted by mista k5, Mon Oct-29-18 11:31 AM
songs kind of bump when they are mixed in with other songs.

ella mai is not really my thing. not the type of r&b i like. nothing wrong with it. only song i could say i really enjoyed was everything.

i think im done with albums from this week.
13291682, maybe checkout droptune if you use apple music and/or spotify
Posted by dapitts08, Fri Oct-12-18 07:21 PM
it's really new (like only a couple months) and completely opensource.

i only know about it because i follow the developer and his other startup.

13291683, Lupe - physical release dropped and

That’s still all we need to talk about.
13291685, This might be a CD cop for me
Posted by DJR, Fri Oct-12-18 09:10 PM
I’ve only listened to one song, but I’ve been reading the thread here intently.

If there’s real liner notes, that might make my decision easier. This seems like an album you play in the headphones and read the liner notes. And then do it again. Until you absorb it and really take it in.

I think the last CD I bought was the Foreign Exchange album that dropped in 2015? And that was only because it came autographed by both of them, along with the download for almost the same price you’d pay for a download anyway. Good deal, plus I wanted to support, plus I knew I’d like the album.

This one might be worthy?
13291731, Definitely worthy...period

America has imported more warlord theocracy from Afghanistan than it has exported democracy.
