Stuart Bishop First rap album I've been excited about in a while...wish I'd discovered it sooner, sorry I'm late but this is now on HEAVY rotation :) Favorite track: Announcing Humanity.

zebheone Soulful hip-hop and huge emphasis and space for live instruments, listen to McKinley Dixon because there is nothing like his music. Favorite track: Announcing Humanity.

Vicky Thirlaway Best album I've bought this year. Astonishing. Favorite track: The Movement.
