[Playlist] Different Kitchen – March ’15 Picks from RDIO
So apparently there’s been mixed response to this latest leak from Kendrick Lamar‘s just-announced To Pimp A Butterfly album. Between that and the lukewarm response to “i” I have a feeling the album is going to be an eclectic, experimental set like Common‘s Electric Circus that might go under-appreciated or be panned because it’s not GKMC 2.
I, on the other hand, think that Kendrick is in the vanguard of a new black music renaissance (cf. Yeezus, Black Messiah, LP1) that has hip-hop at its creative & artistic core, the same way blues has been for just about all forms of pop music up until this point, and as the basis for its attitude or point of view, but draws on other influences and elements too. Just a thesis I’ve been mulling around for a while now. Needs work for sure, I know….
Had to post this one because of the old work connection and T.dot connection. Shout to Pain and Kardi for this banger of a track. Very grime influenced also, no??
Track from an old Kitchen favorite, Florida’s Funkghost from his album released last year, Caviar Taste: RDIO | Audiomack | iTunes. Hit the jump for his tribute to Paradise Garage, one of the greatest clubs of all time.
T.I. been busy recently apparently. Guess he gotta get back to work in case he needs to kick in a share to cover the recent judgement!
