Edan: Beauty and the Beat
While Edan’s critically acclaimed debut, 'Primitive Plus', was a celebration of Hip-hop’s golden age and a true throwback, his sophomore album, 'Beauty And The Beat', is a vast musical collage that contains many different influences; Hip-hop, rock, pop, dusty breaks, hazy loops, luxurious off-kilter samples and curveball tempo changes that are all crafted into one cohesive piece of art. Edan’s vast lyrical imagination and technical wizardry (he also self-produced every track) alone make ‘Beauty And The Beat’ a standout
Will Smith: Lost and Found
Will Smith's latest record is amazing! I can hardly believe how amazingly strong his songwriting has become! He's truly an amazing composer, musician, and lyricist. I think he also plays every single instrument on this record!! Even the album cover is of interest! The photo of Will Smith standing on the corner of West Philly and Hollywood is incredibly poignent and should clear up any talk about him sinply becoming a 'sell-out'
