Album Review: Jay-Z - Magna Carta... Holy Grail
Regardless of how you get your hands on Jay-Z’s 12th full-length, when you do you’ll be holding one of the best five albums Hov has ever released

Album Review: Run The Jewels - Run The Jewels
This is bangers end-to-end and brutal delivery from a pair whose collaboration surprised most of us. With hindsight it now seems so obvious. No further questions. Get this.

Album Review: The Dream - IV Play
Slow It Down aside, those major label kids might have made the right call this time. Surprising – and disappointing.

Album Review: Bliss N Eso - Circus In The Sky
A duo who began writing good albums now have the tools they need to make very good albums. There are a few bumps here, sure, but in the main this is compelling.

Album Review: Kanye West - Yeezus
Yeezus, defined by collaboration and discovery, is majestic. Well worth your time.

Album Review: Eloquor - From The Oceans Of Karana
The beat bangs. The chorus is a monstrous rallying cry. Avalanche, even as it ups the ante, is well worth a listen, too. There’s a lot to enjoy with this record, it’s just that some of it is a little obscured.

Album Review: Dialectrix - The Cold Light Of Day
Six full length releases and we’re left wanting more? Bring on number seven.

Album Review: Known Associates - Ashes To Dust
With chemistry like this, we’re excited for the next time we get to hear the Known Associates on a track together. Cool shit.

Album Review: P-Money - Gratitude
What we have here is engaging, but the cultural cringe is never far away. You’re good enough, P-Money. You just have to believe in yourself.

Album Review: LL Cool J - Authentic
So… Authentic? Okay, authentic to what? If this is an authentic representation of Smith’s vision, it is not an interesting one. Avoid.

Album Review: Will.i.am - #willpower
#willpower’s greatest flaws are those of its maker. Making your album’s title a hashtag is absolute bottom-of-the-barrel stuff.
