Missing the October 1st 2016 date in order to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Soul On Ice, Soul On Ice 2 arrives not in October but in September… 2019. With the confusion of whether Intellectual Property (subtitled “S.O.I.2”) was actually a sequel to Ras Kass’ debut LP or […]
Denzel Curry today releases his fourth studio album titled ZUU, an album filled with loud, bass-heavy, brash production akin to the heyday of the Miami music scene from the 1980s. With a Chevy Impala and a late-80s-slash-early-90s logo (some say it resembles Poison Clan’s logo) even the album […]
Forming like a contemporary Boot Camp Clik, the super-group Beast Coast (consisting of The Flatbush Zombies, The Underacheivers, and some of the members of Pro Era) today release the album Escape From New York to accompany their tour of the same name. The term “Beast Coast” has been […]
Live Fast Die Whenever is the latest release from the $uicideboy$, this time with Blink-182 member Travis Barker and some help by Munky of Korn-fame. This EP is thankfully much more focussed than their debut studio album I Want To Die In New Orleans and I’m pleased to […]
Ever since Smif-N-Wessun’s debut album Dah Shinin’ dropped, Tek and Steele have been making their own brand of credible underground Hip-Hop music (although I’ll be the first to admit that not every release since their 1995 LP has lived up to the duo’s original classic). The All is […]
A decade after his debut album Bogies And Alcohol, Cambridge MC Dirty Dike (real name James Walton) brings us his fifth LP Acrylic Snail (released on the 14th December). For fans of Dirty, you’ll be pleased to hear that nothing has changed, in fact Acrylic Snail is chock-full […]
After a slew of singles, EPs, and guest appearances, D Double E finally releases his debut album Jackuum! and thankfully it’s a satisfying listen. I am pleased to report that after many years of waiting for a solo LP from the Newham Gen, today we finally have a […]
Devised as a multi-act album similar to Tonedeff’s Polymer or Bishop Nehru’s Elevators, Denzel Curry’s third album TABOO (spelled TA13OO) is a fantastic listen, in fact I am pleased to report that this album for me, is Curry’s best release yet. TA13OO is a 13-track LP split into […]
As someone who has been critical of A$AP Rocky’s previous albums, not to mention his complicity with casual racism, I have to give respect when it’s deserved. With his third studio album Testing, Rocky has finally made an LP that flows well from beginning to end, taking the […]
It’s been just over two years since the Flatbush Zombies released their great yet underrated debut album, so it’s about time we heard some more music from everybody’s favourite psychedelic trio. The Zombies’ sophomore album Vacation In Hell is a hefty release, following on from their previous 12-track […]
Pro Era Producer and MC Chuck Strangers releases his debut album Consumers Park today and I am pleased to report that it’s a fantastic listen. With a distinctly nostalgic vibe, this album is the epitome of smooth Hip-Hop with rich, full-flavoured sounds. The album is at times both […]
Bishop Nehru’s sixth release titled Elevators: Act I And II is an impressive album. Split into two halves, each segment is composed by a different producer (“Act I: Ascension” by Kaytranada and “Act II: Free Falling” by MF Doom). With a title and concept such as this, this […]
Recently, I’ve been getting a few requests by underground artists to featured them on What Went Right With and I’ve now got a backlog of musicians who I agree, need exposure. First it’s Apollo Campbell who, to be honest, I’ve never heard of but that doesn’t make his […]
The Lull Before The Storm is the latest release from Que Hampton, a criminally underexposed and underrated MC from Rockland County. This album follows on from his 2015 A Piece of BLAKK mixtape (and a handful of EPs) and like Hamp’s other releases, this is another satisfying example of […]
It’s great to see and hear a group move with the times rather than getting stuck in a rut, many rappers from the 90s and 00s can’t help but hark back, endlessly making music that is no longer relevant. How fantastic it is then, to hear a group […]
