The title track, “Out the Way,” sets the tone early, rooted in independence and self-sufficiency. Aj leans into the idea of staying low-key while leveling up, making it clear that distance and discipline are part of his formula. “Angeles Crest Highway” picks up the pace with high energy, delivering a…

dälek is an industrially abstract hip hop outfit from Newark, New Jersey now comprised of producer Mike Mare & none other than MC dälek himself. Their 1998 debut Negro Necro Nekros was a great introduction except the sophomore effort From Filthy Tongue of Gods & Griots and Absence are both widely considered to be their best. Abandoned Language, Gutter Tactics, Untitled, Asphalt for Eden, Endangered Philosophies & Precipice were all solid with some being better than others. My personal favorites around that time gap being Abandoned Language & Gutter Tactics. Anyways, they’re reuniting after 4 years for their 10th LP. “Better Than” sets the tone for this new era of the pairing’s career with an industrial boom bap instrumental venting they’re frustration…
This is the 4th studio LP from Los Angeles, California duo Coyote. Consisting of the Morales brothers LadiesLoveGuapo & Ricky Blanco, they went on to gain traction in late 2022 off their debut album Thicker than Water noted for its witty punchlines & East coast influences. Their 2024 sophomore effort L.Aliens quickly became their breakout project to the point where people were recommending to me & easily understood the appeal, coming off yoteLAndia to have Statik Selektah fully produce Machetes & Micheladas in it’s entirety a month after Penta became the new WWE Intercontinental Champion. After the “ApeXzibit” intro, the first song “Gimme a Hell Yeah!” featuring Conway the…
