The first 2 FF albums are a must, but I gotta say Myka's performance on the 3rd album Temptations is exceptional. That album was sorta like Soul's No Man's Land. A little too straightforward, a little too hard, but Myka kills it all the way through. https://youtu.be/5GuyuQwamBE

Famous Future Time Travel with Factor is dooooope. https://youtu.be/LT6x0yUaArk


The Haiku D'etat albums and Ayem Radio joint with ab Rude are also worth a look. This joint is all love. https://youtu.be/JUJzd9EF_is

Solo he is quite hit and miss as you mentioned, the compilation Timetable will give a new listener a nice overview of what Myka was up to post-Griots. Believe he had a solo album which never came out back in like 94-95 around the time of Acey's All Balls dont Bounce. It's All Love is real solid and I'd go with Gramophone as another worth a look. Didn't much like Mykology or A Work In Progress. https://youtu.be/z2PgaVUVSxI

Live he is a slayer, ridiculous breath control and chopping. Legend and it's good to see him get some wider love.

Props on the interview good sir!
