Music of the Month: May 2017
Album of the Month:
Mac DeMarco - This Old Dog (Captured Tracks) released May 5th
Mac is back with a new full length album, This Old Dog. This time he uses his dreamy indie-charm to talk about break-ups, getting older, and his relationship with his father. He incorporates new instruments and takes more of an acoustic approach while still delivering that classic Mac DeMarco vibe. Checkout my full review HERE & listen below...

Misses of the Month:
Day Wave - The Days We Had (album)
Somewhat higher energy dream-pop, but still not that attractive.
Listen: Something Here
G-Eazy
Listen: Get Mine (feat. Snoop Dogg) & Special Love (feat. Dakari)
Halsey (New album Hopeless Fountain Kingdom releases 6/2)
Honestly, not horrible singles. I'm on the fence about how I completely feel about them.
Listen: Now Or Never & Strangers (feat. Lauren Jauregui)
Lil Yachty - Teenage Emotions (album)
Listen: Peek a Boo (feat. Migos)
Logic - Everybody (album)
The single "Everybody" is one of favorites by Logic, but I thought this overall album failed to deliver his message coherently. Felt very cliche and corny at times. Logic has a great singing voice throughout this record and the production is wide and full. Contained some decent songs and features but was pretty underwhelming.
Listen: Everybody & 1-800-273-8255 (feat. Alessia Cara & Khalid)
