Silk Sonic, India Shawn, Merci D., Ye Ali, Beanz and more make up this week’s best new albums.
One of the most anticipated albums of the year has finally arrived: Anderson .Paak and Bruno Mars‘ An Evening With Silk Sonic. With that being said, all the other drops of the week are just basking in the glow of this spectacular ’70s infused release on New Music Friday.
India Shawn has emerged to release the lush, moody, and reflective album BEFORE WE GO; after a few teasers Ye Ali has dropped Dangerous; in case you missed it BJ The Chicago Kid shared Three, and serpentwithfeet serves up DEACON’s Grove.
New hip-hop has also surfaced from trans artist Merci D. (Ooze); Papoose continues his ultra-busy year with October; Joell Ortiz’s Autograph is here, emerging rapper Beanz fits her project Table’s Turn in this week’s lineup and Aesop Rock x Blockhead unveil Garbology.
