NEW MUSIC MONDAYS…Tantalizing new flavors from Kehlani, Yuna, Billy Danze, Jordan Rakei, Angelique Kidjo, Liam Bailey, VINSON, Ebony Riley and Jai’Len Josey

Kehlani – KEHLANI (Atlantic Records) Queen Kehlani’s self-titled fifth album is a masterclass in R&B maturity, dropping right on her 31st birthday. Moving away from the experimental "Crash" era, this project leans back into a sophisticated, 2000s-coded soul sound that feels both nostalgic and futuristic. It’s a dense 17-track journey executive produced by Khris Riddick-Tynes, featuring an absolute Hall of Fame roster: Brandy, Usher, Missy Elliott, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Clipse, […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS. Transcendental flyness and superb audio from M.I.A., yaya bey, Adrian Younge, Honey Dijon, Jessie Ware, Blue Lab Beats, Protoje and Buddy

M.I.A. – M.I. 7  Screenshot (Ohmni Music) The global disruptor is back, and she’s taking us to church church—but not the way we might be used to. M.I. 7 is a global form of gospel, yet a pivot that trades traditional pews for heavy, distorted basslines and rhythmic chants that feel like a spiritual riot. It’s an experimental journey through 16 tracks that somehow blend the Book of Revelation with the grit of the London underground, featuring the massive textures […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS. Monumental new albums from some of the best and brightest in the game: BALTHVS, DJ Muggs & T.F., Snoop Dogg, Jacob Banks, Tink, Wesley Joseph, Mama’s Gun, Chicago Soul Jazz Collective and Momo Boyd

BALTHVS – Transmutations (Cubensis Records) The funky and trippy Colombian trio has officially "transmuted" their road energy into a high-fidelity studio experience. Captured during their Flesh and Soulworld tour and polished between San Diego and Bogotá, the album features bandleader Balthazar Aguirre on production and a unique dual-bass dynamic from Johanna Mercuriana and tour stand-in Vanessa Muñoz. It’s a seamless blend of Middle Eastern scales and psychedelic Cumbia. The standout is "Ojos Verdes (Alchemized)", a reimagined staple that showcases their […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS…Prestigious new releases from some greats: Thundercat, Arlo Parks, Earl Sweatshirt & MIKE, Curren$y & Wiz Khalifa, Swae Lee and OMAH LAY

Thundercat - Distracted  (BRAINFEEDER) Arriving exactly six years after his Grammy-winning It Is What It Is, Thundercat’s latest effort is an organically stunning and stubbornly present new chapter. While the album maintains his signature dream-like falsetto and virtuosic bass work, it feels more empathetic and grounded than ever. Tracks like “ThunderWave” with WILLOW and “This Thing We Call Love” feat. Channel Tres showcase a beautiful balance between his familiar jazz-fusion humor and a new, vulnerable introspection regarding the blurring lines […]

Justine Skye - Candy (Warner Records)  Justine is officially in her "Kaytra-bounce" era, and honestly, it’s exactly what the culture needed. Candy feels like a late-night drive through a city that never sleeps, blending that infectious, elastic production from Kaytranada with Skye's most self-assured vocals to date. It’s flirtatious, it’s rhythmic, and it’s a total pivot from her earlier pop-leaning work into something that feels much more organic to the Urban Alternative movement. If you need a track to wake […]
