The Los Angeles Issue

Ben Kweller, Cover the Mirrors
Dedicated to his late son, the former grunge-pop wunderkind crafts something both touching and infectious as it moves through the stages of grief like landmarks on an epic summer tour.

Lil Wayne, Tha Carter VI
Upholding his fascination with the crunch and snap of shiny alt-rock, Weezy’s sixth chapter of his ongoing soap opera is as eclectic as its list of features might suggest.

Shura, I Got Too Sad for My Friends
Electro-pop and dreamy grooves are largely replaced with rich ’60s-style folk-pop on the artist’s isolation-inspired third album, wherein self-doubt feels like a secondary character.
