Album of the Month: September 2020

In what was shaping up to be, in my opinion, an uneventful month for music, Slauson Malone quietly dropped his sophomore solo project. For those that are unaware of the Standing on the Corner member, Slauson Malone is an extremely talented producer and musician hailing from Los Angeles, California. He and his Standing on the […]

Albums of the Month: August 2020

At the end of 2002, Phil Elverum decided to change his musical pseudonym from The Microphones to Mount Eerie. After 17 years, Elverum returns to the old moniker for a one-track, 45 minute album/ short film. As a disclaimer, I will confess that I am a massive fan of Phil’s work from both of his […]

Albums released in July were intriguing, with posthumous albums from rappers Pop Smoke and Juice Wrld, a surprise album from Taylor Swift, and a farewell album from rapper Logic.

The month of April proved plentiful for music fans. There are a couple of albums that I really enjoyed this month like Quelle Chris and Chris Keys’ Innocent Country 2 and Fiona Apple’s Fetch the Bolt Cutters to name a few.

ALBUM OF THE MONTH: MARCH 2020

In a month of highly anticipated releases from Lil Uzi Vert, Jay Electronica, Childish Gambino, and many others, The Weeknd’s new album, After Hours, stole the show for me. Being completely honest, I did not expect this album to be anything special. Since The Weeknd’s breakout mixtapes were released, I have not been very impressed […]
