Here’s my 100 most listened to albums on last.fm for reference of what my taste is like, don’t let that stop you from recommending me things you think I won’t like though I’m trying to expand my horizons.

I also like listening to small artists, I write a series of artist features all about people less than a million Spotify listeners so if you have any recommendations for that lmk.

    If you’re willing to go a bit out of hip hop you’d probably love Dijon. Our tastes seem pretty similar. I’m assuming you listen to Freddie Gibbs? If not Bandana for sure collab with madlib and it sounds amazing

    Deltron 3030.

    Hes the rapper for the gorillaz but also has/had a solo career before/during/after the gorillaz as del the funkee homosapien.

    The album is a sci-fi futurism concept hip hop album.

    Love that Forever story is there as both original and extended version! Sticking to the strong lyricism rap themes Food and Liquor from Lupe Fiasco is great.

    I think Eminem’s latest project The Death of Slim Shady was a lot of fun and showed his talent as an artist but it’s not for everyone thematically.

    I share a lot of those albums in my top listens! I highly suggest any album by the Avalanches (there are only 3.) Start with Since I Left You, then Wildflower, then We Will Always Love You. They’re a group from Australia that kinda popularized Plunderphonics. Where they just bought a TON of old records and made songs purely from samples. Since I Left You is an amazing album that is pure samples, easily over 1000 samples were used.

      I second Lorn! Dark ambient electronic sprinkled liberally with glitch elements is chef’s kiss.

      Also would recommended Amon Tobin. ISAM is one of my favorite albums, and Lost and Found is often the song I’ll put on to introduce folks to his style.

    Can’t see the list but basing this on the comments - I have been enjoying the new Hard Quartet album and think you might like. Rock and roll, more or less.

    Janelle Monae, any of the first 3 albums in particular, but all of hers flow well.

    Run the Jewels, if they aren’t already in your list. Second album, but again, any.

    Absolutely love the new Fontaines DC album.
