I am not a Taylor fan, I tried but I can’t!

So this is essentially a Fred Again album "USB" that dropped on the 9th?

open.spotify.com/album/6ZnRegEJuZRhLGrOKh0Y7n

I know its basically a compendium of his hip-hop adjacent tracks plus some new joints, but damn this flew by my radar

EDIT: Its a confusing ass re-release with extra tracks, like an update or something

yeah it's a compilation that he has continuously updated, i just posted the two singles that dropped that day

i read on apple music bio that with the last update the compilation is now complete

Damn, you really do the research

MUSIC!

Maggie Rogers' 3rd LP for my first listen this friday. Very solid, maybe my favorite of hers but I'd have to revisit the others.

I just learned DRAM was dropping an album a few days ago, and that's a shame cause this is GREAT music.

man listen. production, melodies, songwriting, vocals, everything is on point. every track keeps getting better, i don't even know which to post. this is 2024 R&B AOTY so far. CHEERS, SHELLEY. DRAM&B out now

Jordan Ward with another bop

R&B came the f*** thru today. this Baby Rose x BADBADNOTGOOD EP is exactly my type of vibe. the band playing wonderfully, her vocals so warm and grand as always. her and Mereba sound great on their duet together.

this is delicious. i love EPs and want artists to make more of them, but i actually could've used another track or 2 on this. SOUL MUSIC!!

Nia Archives album

What y’all think of Your Old Droog - DBZ ?

Was a cool lil Droog track. I am used to hearing him with Mach-Hommy and Fahim, so the unorthodox features were cool.

Need that Drooglib expeditiously

@op bladee ecco thaiboy song

yeah i be back and forth on whether to post non-streaming drops, but i posted the Carti YouTube songs so
