What an exciting weekend in new music. Let's jump right in.

A bunch of quality LPs dropped this past week including BABYMETAL, Dick Stusso, 6LACK, DERBY FRIDAY, Navy Blue & Lana Del Rey and none of them are the New Noize Album of the Week? So who grabbed the golden ring? JPEGMAFIA x Danny Brown dropped a ridiculously alt hip hop collab record aptly named "SCARING THE HOES" and the best part is it's a bandcamp "name your own price" record.

TANGENT: Any collective/artist brave enough to do a "name your own price" on bandcamp is something you should cop. Simply put these types of releases show how confident the artist is in their work and should be supported.

What can I say about this record, it's a straight blindside hit that will concuss you into a world of MCing and avant garde type music production. This record reminds me of early 2000s late night adult swim. The album tells you right in the title what you are about to experience and when you let this piece ride you are NOT ready. Danny Brown & JPEGMAFIA play off each other's chaotic flows with this bombastic garage rock-esque production that feels like the 90s but has that 2023 "the earth is on fire" apocalyptic vibe. Sounds familiar and fleeting with a whole lotta fun mixed in. I LOVE THIS RECORD. It's loud, unapologetic and gets me to ultra instinct levels. BANGER. 

Staying on the colab train, "RR" is an EP that brings Rauw Alejandro & Rosalía together and sun you best watch out for "VAMPIROS". This track makes me wish I knew more spanish.

We are getting to episodes 12/13 in this season of anime which means NEW ANIME is about to start including Hell's Paradise. It starts April 1st and I ain't fooling when I say this will be the standout new IP in 2023.

Also I will be making some vaca moves, Tri-State I'm coming to punch my east coast card. I will let all interested parties know wassup.
