based off your post. I'd never heard her before, seen a huge poster of her at Rasputin's music the other day.

First two songs i heard (video games, born2die) were ok not my cup of tea. The one i'm on right now Blue Jeans is good.

>Robert Raimon Roy - El Tigre Blanc

It's short and more like an EP, but def has some of his best songs yet. Slightly less Outkast-y and slightly more 'experimental/indie electronic' and 'ambient R&B' sounding..probably like it equal to King Warrior Magician Lover

Bandcamp/IG/FB/Twitter: @hecticzeniths

That Little Egypt Wavy song goes hard as hell.

around 2008-2009 I made a post in this forum that got little response titled something like "Why didn't Stankonia have a bigger influence?" Rob saw it and sent me a message with links to 4 songs from KWML a year or two before that was out and I was hooked...since then I've spread the word about his music and been a fan/supporter and exchanged e-mails once in a blue moon so i guess i was on a list of friends/fam/supporters he sent Le Tigre Blanc to when it was finished.

Bandcamp/IG/FB/Twitter: @hecticzeniths

Very cool, though. Can't wait to hear this release....whenever it finally comes out. Surprised more folks arent up on this dude.

I ended up with his album like a full year before it came out. Kinda forgot about dude since then, gonna check for this new album.

Don't get me wrong I am hyped for whats to come- specifically, I have faith in both El P projects...

Just seems like by this time last year there were a lot more high quality hip hop releases


Off the top I have enjoyed

Add-2

Chris Faust- Villain

Schoolboy Q (though Setbacks was much, much, much better)

KRIT

getting into this Billy Woods...



I feel like I'm forgetting a couple, but there just doesn't seem to be as many quality releases as last year.


What am I forgetting/missing? (I still gotta check out First Serve)

(don't say Homeboy Sandman both those eps were NOT GOOD outside of a track or two)

Honestly the only album I keep going back to this year is Lana Del Rey's.

The Shins is pretty great too.
