Kendrick Lamar - Good Kid, M.A.A.D City (2012)

Giving this another shot, but I just don't like it. Naff production on a lot of the tracks, decent concept executed poorly and nothing INTERESTING happens. I like Yeezus despite it's flaws because it INTERESTS me, this just goes bye annoying the hell out of me.

Spot on, although a few tracks are pretty great, and the production's actually pretty good. But agreed, it's ambitious to a major fault.

I don't think he tries to be too ambitious at all. The concept really isn't all that in the first place. He just made a boring/annoying ass album.

Kendrick Lamar - Section.80 (2011)

Now, here's an interesting album.

Quasimoto Yessir Whatever (2013)

I had to get around to this eventually. It's really good. I know it's a bunch of Madlib's rare and unreleased Quas tracks, but I honestly couldn't tell you that if I didn't already know it, it flows so well. I don't have a lot to say about it. It's new Lord Quas, it's good, that's all I need to know.

Bifrost Arts Come O Spirit! Anthology of Hymns and Spiritual Songs Volume 1 (2009)

I'll just let the description from the record company speak for itself. It's good, it's quiet, it's meditative, it's mystical. It's everything spiritual music should be, with no similarities to the trash that so many Christians call "good music."

For more than 30 years, pop music has suffered from a God complex—attaching a scarlet letter to artists who include the religious experience in their songs.

But a new generation of musicians from across the spiritual spectrum is emerging, discarding the trappings of the Christian-culture industry to reintroduce the transcendence, beauty and historical gravity of western sacred music to the places where it belongs: dinner parties, road trips and back porches.

Come O Spirit brings together artists like Dave Bazan, Damien Jurado, Rosie Thomas, Denison Witmer, The Welcome Wagon (featuring Sufjan Stevens) and Leigh Nash to revive 400 years of long-forgotten melodies and liturgical music. The brainchild of producers Isaac Wardell and Mason Neely, Come O Spirit interprets hymnody through lush, cinematic arrangements and a drop of Southern gothic mystique. It’s like a prayer.

Yeah I could not get enough of Section.80 back in 2011 which is why I felt so let down by good kid, mad city, just how it could go from a song like "Keisha's Song" to "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" in little over a year. I held onto a false sense of optimism that he'd hold onto his substance ever after being signed by a major label, and I paid for it.

Anyways I totally derped on this back on Tuesday

Dessa - Parts of Speech (2013)

I'm kind of hoping it's more of a loungey album like her Castor, the Twins EP was back in 2011.

I see a bit of an animal face motif there.
