New albums from Majid Jordan, OverDoz, Big K.R.I.T., Ty Dolla $ign and Uncle Snoop filled out a fairly short list of project releases, a welcome break from the onslaught of an uncharacteristically packed fall schedule. But the loosies, as always, got us through.

Stimulator Jones marked his Stones Throw debut with the release of a breezy nineties specimen, T-Pain found a kindred r&b spirit in Smino, Mophono & Tom Thump shared their full-melt contribution to an upcoming Funkadelic remix album, while Aminé made yet another compelling case for his consideration in rap's growing elite. Throw in a touch of shameless trap fodder from Migos and Cardi B, Space Captain's heart-swelling fusions and some pace-changing psych-rock selections from Shopping and Marlin's Dreaming, and you've got yourself quite the haul to ease into this weekend.
