Brother Ali has to be one of the best out there right now. Can't fault a single album of his.

I'm more of a jazz man though.

Yeah all the indie hipsters are going crazy over Tame Impala, not my thing. lol Death Grips though...they are TERRIBLE. Yo I've been meaning to ask if you were into Grimes. I figured she'd be your kinda thing.

This reminds me though, I've had The Seer for a year, and I haven't listened to it :lol:.

Since most people here are mostly into hip-hop, you might wanna check these albums out. Kendrick Lamar who?

I refuse to believe that, each one of their album was amazing in it's own way. :tocry:



But seriously though, this one is scarier and more amazing than all of their previous work.
