definitely checking the apollo brown and che noir, dinner party, rapsody. the streets have a new project?? mike shinoda...snoh aalegra. assuming these all actually came out, i have quite a bit to get through.
I'm just sinking into her album from last year (late, I know, but it didn't grab me on the first few listens aside from that D'Angelo track which I loved). Will need to check.
I saw a Kaytranada w/Lucky Daye single, too, but not sure if that was something that had already been out and floating around or not.
Great to hear there's a new album coming: ‘Mellow Fantasy’ Big fan of these Vancouver producers. It's beyond obvious they're big Dilla fans. Their first two albums are worth checking out.

Kid Cudi & Eminem (this was ok but I'm not a good judge, never been a huge fan of either) - Adventures of MoonMan and Slim Shady
Sufjan - America/My Rajneesh (the latter sounds like an Age of Adze outtake and clocks at 10 minutes like a lot of those tunes - just a first impression but not sure that's a great sign for the new album that's apparently coming)
Snoh Alegra - DYING 4 YOUR LOVE (using 4 for "for" is a sure way to make me stack a point against you but she's been on a roll, so... - thanks for pointing this out mista, just wanted to put the title down)
Kaytranada ft Lucky Daye - Look Easy
Massive Attack EP "Eutopia" (with a Saul Williams feature, I think?)
Also, a few other albums definitely worth a mention: My Morning Jacket - The Waterfall II Julianna Barwick - Healing is a Miracle The Streets - None of Us Are Getting Out of This Life

...with no shows I bet we get an EP or maybe even another album soon from Kay.
If I were a singer with some pull I'd lob a call to him right now....because Kay usually tours HEAVY, so I'd imagine he's probably just cooking in the meantime.

I've gone back several times thinking maybe it was just time and place but it's never really hit it for me. Some really good individual tracks but not a particularly good total record -- I think some of the guests/features felt really mediocre/unnecessary and brought it down (for me) as a whole.
