Tyler, the Creator — Cherry Bomb
Big departure from Tyler's previous efforts. Could he be maturing as an artist and a man? Probably the former rather than the latter.

Death Grips — Jenny Death
One of the most enigmatic (and fan frustrating) groups working in music today, Death Grips is also one of, if not, THE best acts to come onto the scene in the last ten or so years. Pure brilliance.
Listened
Run DMC — Tougher Than Leather
The 808 became a legend from its ubiquitous appearances on Run DMC joints. Tougher than leather, smooth as suede.
Brooklyn Wildlife New Year's Eve Glitter Party
—Ricoh GR10, 35mm Fujicolor Film, ISO 400

Iron Maiden — Somewhere in Time
How do you rate Maiden's album oeuvre from best to worst? Consider the last dozen or so orgasms you've experienced, attempt to place them in some discernible order, and you're pretty much there.
ONYX — Bacdafucup
Heavy on gangsta talk, light on gangsta walk. Have any of these guys even run afoul of the law? IRS stuff doesn't count.

Afrika Bambaataa — Planet Rock: The Album
"We like to body rock the party!" If that don't get you outta your seat and movie' to the groovin', you probably shouldn't have the privilege of standing, anyway.
Curtis Mayfield — Superfly
A stone cold funk soundtrack from a low-budget blaxploitation classic. Better than Isaac Hayes' "Theme from Shaft"? Damn right.
