Black Up
Black Up is the debut studio album by American hip hop duo Shabazz Palaces.
Quaranta
Quaranta is the sixth studio album by American rapper Danny Brown, released on November 17, 2023, by Warp Records.
Atrocity Exhibition
The album shares the name of J.G. Ballard’s 1970 novel and Joy Division’s 1980 track. Both were quite controversial following their release with references to a Third World War and JFK’s assassination in the novel, and the lead singer of Joy Division, Ian Curtis, subsequently committing suicide. Danny stated that another meaning of the album is more literal. People treat usually disturbing things like his drug habits or police brutality as though they are part of a freak-show.
There Existed An Addiction To Blood
Clipping’s third album for Sub Pop, There Existed an Addiction to Blood, finds them interpreting another rap splinter sect through their singular lens. This is clipping’s transmutation of horrorcore, a purposefully absurdist and creatively significant sub-genre that flourished in the mid-90s.
