Ta-ku - Songs To Make Up To
"Songs To Make Up To" is a hope-filled ode to staying together.
Ghostface Killah & Adrian Younge - Twelve Reasons To Die II
“Twelve Reasons To Die II” literally applies the “making a movie” formula, but fails to fall in line with cult classics such as Prince Paul’s “A Prince Among Thieves.”
Statik Selektah - Lucky 7
If Lucky 7 is truly the end of a particular era and sound, Statik Selektah undoubtedly goes out in spectacular fashion.
Miguel - Wildheart
Perhaps the most tortured of the souled out crooners creating today, Miguel's "Wildheart" establishes him as an R&B juggernaught.

"God, Money, War" is a confident step forward for King Los, as he shows he can combine his lyrical prowess with solid song-making.

Bosco - Boy (EP)
Tormented and artistic, Bosco's "Boy" molds morose, soulful musicality into modernist hieroglyphs.
Tyga - The Gold Album: 18th Dynasty
Tyga makes an effort at creating a well-rounded album but fails to double down on his strengths.
Meek Mill - Dreams Worth More Than Money
As ostentatious as it is ambitious, "Dreams Worth More Than Money" falls just short of its own lofty expectations.
