Average April

Holy cow, another month gone by... As you can see from the title of this month's playlist, this month has actually been pretty normal. Ups and downs, ins and outs, turns and... yeah, you get the point. However, I'm really impressed with the music I've been finding lately (only because I do an ungodly amount of digging and searching). When am I not, though? I guess that makes this month even more normal...

First up, I'll talk a little on some music that I've been bumpin' all month long, and ironically, it's really not that average. It's very different than what I was expecting, actually. Even though Mac Miller's newest mixtape, Macadelic, was released a little over a month ago, I've now had enough time to form a few opinions about it. First off, I like it. Some of the songs really vibe an old school hip hop sound, which I really dig. Second, like I mentioned before, it's definitely not what I was expecting. Why? The drug use/references in this album are uncountable... I mean, yeah he's a young hip hop artist, they all rap about b!tches and rollin' on pills, right? But comparing this new album to previous works such as Blue Slide Park or Best Day Ever (I'm thinking songs like Wear My Hat, Life Ain't Easy, Love Lost), it seems he's really into the drug scene right now. Furthermore, when he's not talking about drugs, the rest of his lyrics are pretty gritty and nasty... but of course, he won't lose any support from the female percentage of his audience by rapping about all those nasty things. Girls go ape sh!t over this dude, I mean, look at that face! Still makes for good music, though, so I'm not complaining. ...Especially when it's FREE.

Next, I'll just get right down to business. Here's my full April playlist, from which I've extracted my most listened to and liked songs and turned into an 8tracks Mix, which is below this list. Check it.

Hopefully you're jammin' out by now, right? Here's a few more sounds I've discovered more recently that I've been grooving to, these are a little more relaxed.

November: Rage and Relax

I definitely owe every one a playlist from last month... and I'm pretty sure you all know what I'm about to say. "I've been busy!" Yes, yes, I've been busy. I'm sure everyone can relate in some way, and let me just say, finding the man of my dreams has had me pretty occupied..... :) Let's just get to the music, yeah?

I decided to split my music into two playlists this month, because there were times when I wanted to jam, and times when I wanted to chill.
For my "rage" playlist, I've got some amazing new tracks from people like Frank Ocean, Collin McLoughlin, Rihanna, and Yelawolf, and groups like The White Panda and Shwayze & Cisco. I also listened to the newest Gym Class Heroes album, and it's pretty impressive. If you haven't listened to "Solo Discotheque", please do.
I have a few favorites from this playlist, I'll highlight them and provide as many links as possible.

In my "relax" playlist, I'm really diggin' a few new-ish albums, like Phantogram's "Nightlife", and "Hakuna Matata" from VIBE. I've also loved Matt Wertz for a long time now, and my favorite of his is "Twenty Three Places". I'm super excited about the last song, "Finally Moving". Listen to it, you'll know it if you know Flo Rida's "Good Feeling". The entire album is fantastic, give it a listen, and enjoy.

Chill.
