7L & Esoteric - Esoteric vs. Japan
- I really wanna check this one out, but I can't find it at the gettin' place yet...
- 05/01: It's dope! Bangin' ass beats with random Japanese clips thrown in for good measure. I'm fucking getting it, that's all there is to it.
- 05/28: Listening to it now. It's good.

Al Green - Lay It Down
- New Al Green album produced by ?uestlove. I'll give it a listen.
- 05/28: Pretty lame overall. Less than half the songs even have a decent beat/feel ("Just for Me", "You've Got the Love I Need", "What More Do You Want from Me", and "Standing in the Rain" are about it). I'm definitely passing on this one as I'd probably never listen to it again anyway.
- I haven't checked it out yet.
- 05/28: Starts off with a pretty tight, horn infused beat. It's pretty good, but I want to listen to it again before the final verdict.
