Lancey Foux - LIFE IN HELL
LIFE IN HELL by Lancey Foux is a vibrant voyage through this entrancing 1-hour and 5-minute soundscape; a journey of emotional turmoil, inner conflict, and learned lessons.
JID - The Forever Story
Sitting at 15 tracks spread over 59 minutes and 12 seconds, The Forever Story by JID gives us so much without overstaying its welcome. It was released on August 26th, 2022. I classify this album as Hip hop, although it veers in so many directions, taking influence from multiple genres and creating a rich pool of sounds. The Atlanta native uses his emcee abilities, along with the aid of other artistic techniques to build an immersive soundscape, all telling one giant story.
Tony Shhnow - Don’t Look At Numbers (Lost Kids Edition) Remix feat. Brent Faiyaz
If you have not heard of Tony Shhnow yet, now is a great time. He is a versatile LAX native who has been taking the Atlanta Plugg scene and the underground at large by storm for quite some time now. “Don’t Look At Numbers (Lost Kids Edition)” is a remix of the 3rd cut off his latest album, the critically acclaimed Reflexions. The track runs for 3 minutes and 37 seconds and was released on August 19th, 2022. He enlists none other than Brent Faiyaz, who delivers a stellar vocal performance, scaling the notes of the beat beautifully.
Summrs - FALLEN RAVEN
FALLEN RAVEN is Summrs’ passionate new 23-piece Hip hop project. Released on June 27th, 2022, this massive project runs for 54 minutes and 33 seconds. It is full of melodies that range from banging and aggressive—with “Dont Mean Shit” for example, which hits with hard bass and an unchained synth progression—all the way to slow and somber, on cuts like “Dear Mom”. The track features a plethora of content, both musically and lyrically. He goes into elaborate detail about topics such as his lifestyle, struggles, family, and more.
MuddyMya - MUDDYWORLD V2
MUDDYWORLD V2 is a supercharged, euphoric Hip hop project from rising superstar MuddyMya. At 10 songs, the project contains 25 minutes and 1 second of exciting, head-rushing thrills and stimulation. Executive produced by boundless right-hand producer OK, the beats on this track have just as much energy as they do substance; between the moody, dynamic synth melodies, the hard-hitting, low fidelity drums, and the dissonant sound effects, the only way I know how to describe them is lysergic.
