Obligatory wrap-up post of those songs I’ve played most during the month when Pusha T reminded me that he’s now an overwrought bore who was only good at sounding nonchalant over Neptunes beats next to his brother back in the noughties.
Natural Elements – Vroom Nemix (2017)
Stunnaman02 – Gut Check (2020)
Seiji Oda – WAKE UP (2022)
Ezale – Ironic (2022)
A-Wax – Streets Callin’ (2022)
Homeboy Sandman – A! (2022)
Eatem – Lil’ Phat Flow (2022)
Young Bleed – Dat’ Water (2022)
Cookiee Kawaii – Fly Away (2022)
Laa Lee ft. Christale – Bong Bing (2022)
Real Lies – Dream On (2022)
Other notables: also a big fun of Stunnaman02 & Lil’ Kayla’s new N.OrCal Bounce back-and-forth Roll Wit’ It; I think Universe is the first Mouse On Tha Track & BeatKing collaboration since Lumba; Duke Deuce’s new single sounds like late-career Linkin Park lmfao.
Also wrote about beats I wish Slick Rick had got, dropped a list of my favourite beatjacks ever, and paid tribute to Dezzy Dez Slay.
