Princess Nokia, Girls
With her fourth album of punky and provocative raps, the Nuyorican artist is once again reimagining hip-hop as a dangerous place to be.
Blawan, SickElixir
A dense, monolithic collection, the English DJ’s true speaker-blower of a second album sits somewhere between industrial techno, post-dubstep, and IDM.
Snõõper, Worldwide
The Nashville punks’ second album is less sonically gritty than previous projects, but has an added intensity largely stemming from an expanded studio band and sleeker production.
