@ellie Kendrick's work is very cinematic, he's excellent at telling stories and painting a picture for his listener. I like Chance as well although I fear he's hit his peak with Acid Rap, and Macklemore is alright but kind of got a bit over hyped by the press. Not even going to touch on those last 2, yuck. In terms of more recent listening, my favourite hip hop album of this year is definitely still Pinata by Freddie Gibbs and Madlib (who's one of the most genius producers ever in my opinion). Very heavy 90s influence on this album but it also has several Madlib signatures like jazzy beats and odd samples. Freddie delivers some of his best bars to date too.
