#176 - Alaska & steel tipped dove breakdown 'Reverberations of a Dead Man's Ego' - Album Alchemy

Épisode 176

mercredi 21 août 2024 • Durée 59:50

As I get closer and closer to my 30s, mortality, the future outlook of society. and my fading youth are consistently ideas that are occupying my mind. So art that speaks to these topics in a thoughtful and insightful way have been especially appreciated as of late.

But unlike other genres out there, rap is still quite young. Therefore, there isn’t necessarily a ton of artists out there who are even old enough to provide such an aged perspective. And among those who are, many of whom are the likes of Jay-Z, Nas... who’s primary wisdom seems focused more on wealth-building and respectability politics.

That’s why the album we will be spotlighting in today’s episode, Reverberations of a Dead Man’s Ego, is such a breath of fresh air.

The mature perspectives we get from Alaska on this album are thoughtful, provocative, and remarkably honest. And they are accompanied by some of the best production we’ve heard from producer steel tipped dove to-date.

Listen on to learn about the making of this new album, the generational divide between Gen X and Gen Z, maturing with age, a sober outlook on the future of our society, and much more.

Conversation Pieces - Why Lawd... a cautionary tale of f****** up a good thing

mercredi 7 août 2024 • Durée 16:40

The Plug (0:21).

The Conversation (2:01).

NxWorries’ Why Lawd came to me at the perfect time in my life. A time where I find myself in the best most healthy and rewarding relationship I’ve ever had with a remarkably beautiful and smart woman, who is sweeter than [insert sweet substance]. So the thought of it ever coming to an end feels mortifying.

It’s for all these reasons that Why Lawd has had a profound impactful on me. It is an ode to appreciating the special person I have in my life… that is masquerading as one of the most beautifully crafted, most gorgeous-sounding albums I’ve heard in a long long time.

#168 - NCL DØØFUS INTERVIEW

Épisode 168

mercredi 10 avril 2024 • Durée 01:00:26

Video animation by: Big Flowers

Intro/Outro beat by: BLOODBLIXING

The Plug (0:40).

The Interview (2:08).

An iconic rap album is more than just beats and rhymes. It’s the interludes, the cover artwork that set the foundation for the image we as listeners associate with the music.

All of those elements combined, when done exceptionally well, are the ingredients to leaving a true lasting impact on the game.

Today’s guests, DøøF and NCL-TM, are determined to leave a similar level of imprint on the underground with their series of NCL-DØØFUS albums.

In this episode, we get insight into what sparked this duo to form, why they mesh so well creatively, and learn about how their new album, BULLETPROOF KUFFLINX, further builds on NCL-DØØFUS world they have created.

The spark for the NCL-DØØFUS pairing (2:53).

#90 - Mach-Hommy - Balens Cho (Hot Candles) REVIEW

Épisode 90

mercredi 5 janvier 2022 • Durée 11:38

Video animation by: Big Flowers

Intro/Outro beat by: BLOODBLIXING

Beginning of Episode (0:49).

Balens Cho showcases that Mach’s album-making skills have really improved here in 2021, which I definitely think can be attributed to him reuniting with Westside Gunn.

This influence was clearly felt on Pray for Haiti, and I believe that influence is found here on Balens Cho too, as the album’s flow, consistency, and lyrical focus is on point.

Balens Cho is the result of someone who put their 10 000 hours in. Mach sounds so remarkably comfortable and in control of what he wants to accomplish, where he can now effectively execute his ideas into music form with ease.

As listeners, we are reaping the benefits of a master at work.

RMPP Preferred Cut: "Self Luh"

#89 - Your Old Droog - Space Bar REVIEW

Épisode 89

mercredi 29 décembre 2021 • Durée 11:32

Video animation by: Big Flowers

Intro/Outro beat by: BLOODBLIXING

Beginning of Episode (0:49).

After a stellar 2019 and 2020 that saw Your Old Droog drop his magnum opus, Dump YOD: Krutoy Edition, Droog’s music has been on the decline since then.

Thankfully, Space Bar corrects just about every issue I’ve had with Droog’s recent output, through better production, rapping, and guest features.

Space Bar’s beats, although not as captivating as Dump YOD or what was on Jewelry for sure, are much more up my alley.

Droog also tweaked his approach lyrically, showing improvement in this respect as well on Space Bar.

There’s a fun braggadocios looseness that is more present here, that Droog has always thrived in, allowing him to up the bar quality in comparison with his last couple of projects.

He’s less personal on this album, and instead is more aggressive, airing out some grievances that he has with the rap game, and wack collaborators as well. Above all, YOD gives us punchlines on punchlines on punchlines.

Space Bar doesn’t try to do too much, and is better off for it.

RMPP Preferred Cut: "Meteor Man"

#88 - Mick Jenkins - Elephant in the Room REVIEW

Épisode 88

mardi 21 décembre 2021 • Durée 13:27

Video animation by: Big Flowers

Intro/Outro beat by: BLOODBLIXING

Beginning of Episode (0:49).

Although I wasn't a huge fan of The Circus, I think Mick really learnt something from creating that album, as it relates to being more concise.

Elephant in the Room doesn't overstay its welcome. The songs are refined as hell, with no wasted space, showing his most finely tuned blend of melodic soul singing, and rap.

There's a great seamless flow to this album that is accentuated beautifully by the wonderful smoothness in the melodies and hooks. These hooks are all so well put-together, even by Mick's standards, which are high as this has always been a key strength in his artistic arsenal.

At its fundamental level, Mick is COMFORTABLE on Elephant in the Room.

What was a bit of a drawback on previous projects like Pieces of a Man, where I felt he didn't push himself as much stylistically, on this album he keeps certain elements like the production mostly familiar, while giving himself the room to be more natural and less forced, ditching the rigid themes and concepts found in his past records.

While not a project I think that reaches the highs of THC or The Water(s), Elephant in the Room is an album that manages to say more and do more, with less.

If Mick can find a way to marry this more looser approach with some more musical experimentation, I believe that he can still deliver the true classic album that I've always felt he's been capable of delivering.

RMPP Preferred Cut: "Reflection"

#87 - JPEGMAFIA - LP! REVIEW

Épisode 87

mercredi 15 décembre 2021 • Durée 15:42

Video animation by: Big Flowers

Intro/Outro beat by: BLOODBLIXING

Beginning of Episode (0:49).

On All My Heroes are Cornballs there was such an irresistible earworm effect to me, where so many of the glitches, weird transitions, and short bursts of melody did a great job of creating variety and maintaining my deep engagement. It made for a highly entertaining and colourful listen.

But LP! feels significantly more plain and bland by comparison.

There is a more live and organic feeling in these instrumentals on LP! though, which is pretty cool for the most part. There is significant usage of live drums and true basslines that elevate the size of this sound, making it fit for a stadium.

However, it's precisely this move away from less glitchiness and noise that makes this album feel much more tame than I would've liked.

Lyricism and pure rapping have never been JPEGMAFIA's selling point. He's always been a capable rapper, with fiery and often militant lyricism that was engaging. However, on this album, these songs are more dependent on this dimension of his music more than ever before.

LP! is an album that doesn't play its best hand, it's an album that doesn't put JPEG in the best position to succeed. It lacks the explosive aggression of Veteran, as well as the sugary sweetness of the melodies on Cornballs.

LP! mixes all of his previous styles, and adds some new live musical elements into the blender too, but unfortunately it lacks the charms of his previous work, and instead comes off a bit dry.

RMPP Preferred Cut: "TIRED, NERVOUS & BROKE!"
