Metal Lungies

Mick Jenkins singles are a quiet highlight of 2018.

Steel drums for all seasons.

DJ Muggs adds a classic to the Roc Marciano canon 27 years after the first Cypress Hill album dropped.

Note that G Perico starts his day with the Financial Times.

One of the best Roc Marciano songs in an already stellar year is an obscure R&B guest appearance.

This is a good song until Freddie Gibbs shows up whereupon it becomes a great song.

Crimeapple with another dispatch from the center of the earth.

Mick Jenkins does this thing where he blacks out on his second verse, so on repeat listens you get excited the first time the hook comes. He did the same thing with his BADBADNOTGOOD joint.

The last thing I remember about reggaeton is Nore trying to put us onto Tego Calderon, but this goes.

Joey Purp gets a funeral march for his populist street single.
