Raphael Saadiq is fucking brilliant. Just saying.
Anyway, my other issue w/ keeping up w/ these new hip hop albums is that the last 2 years I've been so focused on jazz.
I intended to hear 1992 or teh new Danny Brown today... but Robert Glasper Experiment dropped a new album so I listened to that instead. It's stellar. Dude is on a streak... last year his Trio album was my 2nd fav jazz album of the year right after Kamasi Washington. This year he's already had a hand in compiling the Miles Ahead soundtrack, then did an album of Miles Davis reinterpretations and now this new Experiment album.
