#5. The Babe Rainbow – Rainbow Rock

Heard the song prior to seeing the band. It’s such a perfect fit after finding the image. This is one of those “music from another era” moments. Very Woodstock-y.

This is great. Berhana is great. Baird is great. All these things work nicely. (give it at least til 1 min in)

Hoodie Boy’s Space & Time album is completely intoxicating. I am not necessarily crazy into any song (with this track being my favorite), but I cannot stop listening.

#1. J.Cole Freestyle

Ok it’s not often I post a YouTube clib. I also don’t think I’ve ever posted a freestyle. But HOLY hell is this fucking smooth. Yes, J.Cole has a new album out but this is 1000x better than the rest of the album IMO. The first first freestyle in the video is what I’ve been jamming too (the beat over 93 ’til infinity). I’m not really into the second half. But wowza. That first freestyle is absolutely unreal.
