On top of the Chicago rapper's full-length debut, this week's list of ear-worthy long-plays includes Caleb Giles' warped and warm Under The Shade, Rich Brian's increasingly sophisticated and versatile The Sailor, Cuco's major label level-up Para Mi, and Medallo, a serrated, at times symphonic, collaborative album from DJ Muggs and CRIMEAPPLE.
EPs and LPs aside, the week in single drops was nothing short of bountiful. Georgia Anne Muldrow and Declaime's "Post-Apocalyptic Love" is a pulse of polished R&B. PJ Morton's strikes back with a buoyant clap-happy cut. Poolside comes through with a jolt of disco-blotted pop. Jidenna returns with his own "Crew" caliber squad anthem. H.E.R. sneaks out another lovely slow-burner. Taylor McFerrin links with Anna Wise on his second dance floor dagger in as many weeks. And there's a new offering from Miles Davis' soon-to-be unearthed Rubberband. But that's just half the script.
