Bahamadia

I can't say there's a female rapper that I consider belonging among my absolute favorites, as I usually find it hard to connect/relate with them. But there is one exception to the above rule and it's Bahamadia - with all due respect to some other undoubtedly great femcees. I just love her delivery, it's so natural, so effortless. Also, the production does a good job of showcasing this even further. It creates a warm and cozy atmosphere with a soul-based background. It draws you in slowly but surely in a hypnotising and irresistible manner and then she delivers the finals blow with her vocals. It might seem that she lacks energy, but that's exactly the point (though it has to be said that it's not monotonous all the way through there are more "active" moments, for example Rugged Ruff or Total Wreck). All the guest are fine, both Da Jawn and 3 Tha Hard Way are deservedly some of the best tracks of the album due to their contributions, but I prefer listening to Bahamadia to be honest. It's not their fault, it's just that she is the unquestionable star, so captivating. The lyrics don't matter that much, because everything else is excellent, but they happen to be great, too, both as standalone lines or verses ("Spits the riddles like phlegm Loose with my lyrics like I double jointed them Twist and I bend, common episodes past freak modes The monstrous bass beneath my pace be like morse code Slash, beep, slash, beep, scanners Zero in to the system in your jeeps I'm out there with Kool Keith and Ced-Gee and De La Inventors of my third seeing eye The futuristic vision, I'm not among loony nut cakes upon a mission I gets in where I fit in, 'cause life's too short So you could all label me weirdo, but yo I know it's talent") as well as when it comes to storytelling that runs through a whole track, with True Honey Buns (Da Freak Shit) being a prime example of this. Good luck trying to spot the highlights, almost every track is one. Anyway, apart from the ones I already mentioned at various points (Rugged Ruff/Total Wreck/Spontaneity/True Honey Buns (Da Freak Shit)/Da Jawn/3 Tha Hard Way), it has to be I Confess, UKNOWHOWWEDU, Innovation. Yeah, you get the idea." [+] Reply

Safe Mode: On

Mondo Erotica!

三宅純 [Jun Miyake]

"More people should know about this album! It's experimental jazz meets polyphonic classical song in one song, then monk choir meets a soprano with harps and greek folk guitar in the next, then harmonica and sighs and funky guitar. So sad it's not widely available. Updated in 2025: It's on differe..." [+] Reply

We Had Good Times Together, Don't Forget That

Sewerslvt

"“Your feedback for We Had Good Times Together, Don't Forget That” feels more confident in its storytelling. Previous works by Sewerslvt relied on directed samples and shorter songs to convey the trademark sadness. “Don't Forget That” generates the melancholy through long atmospheric passages. Fad..."

From Zero

Linkin Park

"When you consider the fact it's been eight years, the circumstances surrounding the band and their legacy.. this album needed to be better. Too much of the safe, contemporary radio rock we saw predominantly on Living Things and half of The Hunting Party; a style which doesn't gel with Emily Armst..." [+] Reply

"A cracking wee album. Touches of Placebo and Manic Street Preachers. Bits of Muse. It is a poppy indie rock. Couldn't place his accent - but soon discovered Irish connection" Reply
