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 […]

NEW MUSIC MONDAYS. An audio cacophony of goodness from all over the globe and several genres. Newness from RAYE, Wynton Marsalis, Nubiyan Twist, ye and more…

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 […]

James Blake – Trying Times (Good Boy Records) James Blake’s seventh studio album is his first major statement as a fully independent artist, marking a significant return to the skeletal, soul-drenched electronic production of his early career. Written between London and LA, the project explores the search for empathy and connection amidst global and personal chaos, ditching high-gloss pop for intimacy.
