Oddisee - People Hear What They See
I haven't even finished this sucker and I can already tell this is one of my favorite hip hop albums of this year. Every track has been a winner. It's really smooth, which is my favorite kind of hip hope. Check out That Real and Let It Go.
Crocodiles - Sleep Forever
They just released an album this year, but I felt like starting with this one. Great JAMC influenced psychedelic shoegaze type indie here. I'll be checking out their new album, needless to say.
