Mardy Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 That new Elephant Micah album is a thing of beauty. Genericana. Going to make a lot of end-of-year lists, i reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Body Talk was wall to wall bangers so hoping this new album follows suit. Also my take. It's good alright, but doesn't quite reach next level.

Not all the way through yet as it's pretty long. It’s outstanding. Pretty blown away. How can anyone have such an outrageous list of features and still be the star of the record? He’s crushed it.

Much better than the Kanye stuff earlier in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorFiller Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Can't say I've ever given Travis Scott much of a chance as I'd always assumed he was a bit shit but Astroworld is phenomenal. Even at an hour it felt relatively short as it's all bangers. YG's album that came out today is also very good, although it's hard to see it being anything other than completely overshadowed by Travis.

FloorFiller Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 For anybody champing at the bit for new Frank Ocean, this guy Choker does a pretty good job of sounding like Blonde/Endless era Frank, and his new album Honeybloom is brilliant. Some might be put off by his blatant soundalike-ness but I think there's enough range here to be able to see past it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattymooz Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 New Mac Miller was pretty great too. Overall a very good week for hip hop imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UndergroundSound Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) Astroworld is incredible, far better than I was expecting. New Trophy Eyes is sounding good but haven't got round to listening in full yet. On an unrelated note I think Shame's debut record is still my album of the year so far, just doesn't seem to get old as I keep coming back to it.

That makes you Dork Magazine mate.

Tartan_Glasto Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Really liking the new Deaf Havana album. Not paid too much attention to them before apart from catching half their set at Glastonbury last year. The new album seems to have a bit more of a pop leaning though, a few bops.

Badlands Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 Struggled with Travis Scott myself, can’t see myself listening to that again. Gave that Denzel Curry album a listen off the back of Romesh’s podcast however and was impressed by that - will be devoting more time to it this week. Not sure if it’s been mentioned on here.

So much for the 'back to basics' album they talked about post-Drones, and post-2nd Law, and probably post-this album. A little respect? I don’t get why he’s only averaging 20mph if he wants to drive home so badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
