INSANE CLOWN POSSE  "flip the rat"  vinyl  2019

a birthday gift...
a 'record store day' release from 2019...
not sure if the tracks were previously unreleased or if its a compilation or specially recorded for RSD-19???
only thing i own by this Detroit rap/hip-hop group...
always loved what ive heard of them over the last 20+ years, just never got round to buying anything...
humour and sarcasm throughout their music and their rap flows are similar to those of fellow Detroit homie Eminem and his group D-12...
love just about everything on here and liking the remainder
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

JOY CROOKES  "skin" cd 2021

a revisit...
UK born of Bangladeshi/Irish parents...
voice sounds like Amy Winehouse and early Sade at times...
fits in the R+B/soul style with hints of jazz on occasion...
catchy for the most part and classy...
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

lead off single:

HILLTOP HOODS  "walking under stars" cd, 2014

a revisit
Aussie hip-hop trio
seventh album of eight, i own five
this is cool hip-hop, no foul language, no bitches, ho's, drugs, guns or murder her
real subject matter about real lives, like hip-hop used to be back in the day
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

PRINCE  "hit n run: phase two"  cd, 2015

from Lynne's Prince collection
his thirty nineth studio album
final one to be released prior to his death
what a terrible album cover!
second of a companion piece duo of albums (pt: 1 to follow soon)
lots of funky overtones on this one, some soul and a hint of bar room jazz on a track or two
a decent album for an artist thirty nine albums into a career
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

PRINCE  "hit n run: phase one"  cd, 2015

from Lynne's Prince collection
his thirty eighth studio album and second last release before his death
more danceable than "phase two" which i posted a couple of days ago
certainly not anywhere near the variation of that one but still distinctively Prince
"phase two" would rate around 2.1 as a guess, this one around 1.8
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

lead off single features Zooey from She & Him
