[Album Stream] Major Lazer: "Apocalypse Soon"
Major Lazer has been teasing his latest project, Apocalypse Soon for a minute now, and over the weekend the moombahton king dropped a stream of the album on his Soundcloud. In the past couple of weeks, the side project of mega-producer Diplo offered up "Aerosol Can" with Pharrell and the revival of dancehall singer Sean Paul who seems to have been gone from the spotlight since MTV stopped broadcasting 'TRL'. The project is a continuation of the kind of back-side wobbling production that lead Major Lazer to host a 'twerk wall' at last year's Electric Zoo festival. Top to bottom, the project shows Diplo can launch a variety of bass-infused attacks under whatever moniker works. Check out the project, streaming below.
Danny Brown: "Side A (Old)"
Talk about something having a long lead time. It seems like we've been hearing about Old, Danny Brown's debut release on Fool's Gold, forever. After threatening to leak the album in response to its apparent shelving or a dispute over the release date, a stream of the album came available late Monday. Check out the stream here below and stay posted for the full release coming soon.
[Album Stream] Janelle Monáe: ‘The Electric Lady’ LP
Janelle Monáe’s promising sophomore album, The Electric Lady, is now streaming one week before its September 10th release date via VH1. The R&B Queen in training enlists a little help from Prince (who doesn’t just feature on anybody’s album), the Queen herself – Erykah Badu, Solange Knowles, Miguel (see “Primetime”), and Grammy award winner Esperanza Spalding. At first listen, The Electric Lady offers all the necessary elements for an R&B classic – it’s funky, it’s vibrant, it’s daring, and definitely electric. Hear it for yourself below and pre-order The Electric Lady on iTunes here or cop the two-disc deluxe edition at Target next week.
