SpaceGhostPurrp is a bit of an acquired taste. Unless you like dark R&B and trap metal already, then there's not much to acquire
Anyway IntoXXXicated is a tough nut to crack. It's hazy and dank like an A$AP Rocky & Clams Casino track. when it's slow, it's lethargic and menacing, like a horror movie villain who doesn't even need to really chase you when you run. He just moves at a casual pace, maybe because he's only got one working leg and it's got a big metal peg on the end of it... So he just kinda drags his dead leg behind his peg (*chug* *scccrrape*, *chug* *scccrrape*) no matter how far ahead you get. It's all the more terrifying because you know that he's so certain he'll be able to kill you that he doesn't even need to work for it. Psychological torture, really. Soon you realize that running has no point, cause old peg-leg's managed to kill every motherfucker who's tried to step in his way without even breaking a sweat. Eventually you just give up and sit and wait to die.
But I digress. His slow tracks are vicious. His bangers are twisted.
Anyway I'm thinking about horror movies now, but IntoXXXicated is one of the year's best hip hop records. Bottom half of the top ten probably, but still dope. Keep listening. Don't write it off.
As for Black Milk, hell yeah. I haven't spent too much time with the new album, but he's always blowing my mind. Last year it was No Poison, No Paradise, which was in my top five. Before that Black & Brown, his EP with Danny Brown(!)... and of course Album of the Year, which is was a tough act to follow but I think he did alright.
If that's your first time listening to Black Milk, dig into his back catalogue and his cameos for MellowMusicGroup. He's an underrated genius. Kinda like the Kanye of indie rap.
