WHAT A KILLER WEEK FOR MUSIC!
Big Ups - Before a Million Universes (exploding in sound records, 2016) brings the calculated savagery of Slint, RODAN, Shellac, Bitch Magnet and Unwound into the 2010's with extreme bone crushing awesomeness:
Bas - Too High to Riot (dreamville/interscope) is a left field lyrical rap gem, filled with promise and refreshingly non-club ready introspective rap.
Kendrick Lamar - untitled unmastered. (TDE) is the second best hip-hop album of the year from what I can tell. As expected. Check out the Black Hippy does Velvet Underground in demo jam track "untitled 07" and ... well, the rest of the album.
Good stuff indeed.
