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.

You might have a crush on Logic :)

Shhh don’t tell him

(I’m only just a little embarrassed with how prevalent he is)

[-] AppearanceBoring9229@sh.itjust.works 1 points 31 minutes ago

I haven't heard most of those artists but some of the albums art reminds me of MC Lars

[-] No1ButtMe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

The Replacements - Let it Be Morphine Cure For Pain

[-] butsbutts@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 hour ago

violent femmes - hallowed ground

[-] Ashen44@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 hours ago

over the garden wall soundtrack spotted

I don't know most of those so I can't really get a grasp on your tastes but I'll throw a few albums I really like into the ring anyways!

Ruin - The Amazing Devil The Search - NF Everything is Wrong - Lincoln Needle and Thread - Roland Faunte Starbound Orchestral - Curtis Schweitzer Smile! :D - Porter Robinson Dark Matter - Les Friction

I tried to pick some stuff that was really all over the place, hopefully something in there speaks to you

You should check out Psyence Fiction by UNKLE, I think you would enjoy it based on your taste for Gorillaz, and maybe Mezzanine by Massive Attack and Becoming X by Sneaker Pimps. My top picks off each album would be "Guns Blazing", "Bloodstain" and "Rabbit in Your Headlights" off the first one and "Black Milk", " Inertia Creeps" and "Mezzanine" off the second, and "Tesko Suicide" , "6 Underground" and "Spin Spin Sugar" off the third. But honestly I feel like these are just albums you gotta do a sequential listen of. Let me know if you enjoy any of them!

Actually one last one, I'd throw in The Sun Rises in the East by Jeru the Damaja, "Mental Stamina" and "Jungle Music" are solid

[-] Zane@aussie.zone 1 points 45 minutes ago

Those Unkle and Jeru the Damaja albums are rock solid recommendations

[-] dessalines@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago

I love Psyence Fiction. I'm not even sure what genre it fits into, maybe trip-hop?

[-] sidekickplayah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 hours ago

Yeah it's usually classified under trip-hop. Such a good album and the sound is so diverse. You would not think guns blazing and lonely souls came off the same album

[-] sidekickplayah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 hours ago

Fuck me I forgot to add "You Can't Stop The Prophet" off of Sun Rises in the East, that's probably the best song on the album.

[-] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 hours ago

How you got not RTJ?!

Listen to all 4 RTJ albums pls

[-] EnderMB@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

Maybe try:

  • The Rise of Hobo Johnson by Hobo Johnson
  • Outside The Box by Hacktivist
  • Jurassic 5 by Jurassic 5
  • Control System by Ab-Soul
[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Anything by J5 really, it's all golden.

[-] MadBob@feddit.nl 2 points 11 hours ago
[-] TammyTobacco@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

Big Boi and Phantom made a collab album.

Big Grams

[-] Plastic_Ramses@lemmy.world 9 points 17 hours ago

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.

[-] mrunicornman@lemmy.world 3 points 12 hours ago

I love Gorillaz and have listened to Deltron 3030 plenty of times but never made the connection!

[-] Zane@aussie.zone 1 points 39 minutes ago

He's also Ice Cube's cousin

[-] ImmortanStalin@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 14 hours ago
[-] Artaca@lemdro.id 4 points 17 hours ago

Our musical tastes seem almost perfectly aligned, so I'll try and throw out a few curve balls:

  1. AJR - pretty corny, but fuck if almost every song ain't a bop.
  2. The Districts - A Flourish and a Spoil
  3. Mansions - Dig Up the Dead
  4. Stop Light Observations - oRANGE.
  5. Disco Elysium Soundtrack has been my go to of late when I don't want lyrics cluttering my head.
[-] bpt11@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 hours ago

disco elysium soundtrack is fiiiiire

[-] showmeyourkizinti@startrek.website 1 points 13 hours ago

Laurie Anderson - Strange Angels

[-] TeryVeneno@lemmy.ml 1 points 13 hours ago

Phantomime - Mori Calliope

Aesop rock - Skelethon

The drums are just 🤱

[-] TammyTobacco@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

I listen to several of the same rap albums as OP and I also love some Aesop Rock.

Here's one of his songs from a game soundtrack

Aesop Rock - ZZZ Top

[-] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

Hell of a good album. Cycles to Gehenna slaps, fryerstarter is a little surreal. A good chunk of his albums have an instrumental version too.

[-] OADINC@feddit.nl 2 points 16 hours ago

Ivan Torrent - Onyria

This guy makes amazing epic music. Can't recommend him enough. All his other albums are great as well.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 4 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Atmosphere - Mi Vida Local

After going through your list a second time, I don't see gorillaz newest album Cracker Island on it. I never thought the gorillaz would ever get close to their demon days height but I love their new album almost as much (its close, but you can't outshine the sun)

[-] teawrecks@sopuli.xyz 4 points 20 hours ago

I don't see any of The Avalanches on there. All their stuff is good, but if you haven't listened to them, probably start with the original Since I Left You album.

For reference, I discovered J Dilla - Donuts when trying to find more stuff like The Avalanches.

[-] grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

CunninLynguists - Will Rap for Food

Nappy Roots - Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz

Deltron Zero - Deltron 3030

Jurassic 5 - self titled album

Lupe Fiasco Food & Liquor

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 6 points 19 hours ago

Deltron Zero - Deltron 3030

[-] Ballissle@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

Glad to see plenty of gorillaz in there!

Actually a lot of yours align with mine such as Tame Impala and King Gizzard. I'm gonna check out some of the others you have.

I don't really listen to specific albums, just certain artists and playlists.

I will throw in Franz Ferdinand - Hits to the head album though

Mechanical Keyboard Sounds: Recordings of Bespoke and Customized Mechanical Keyboards

Edit: This is less music, and more relaxation sounds. But I really like it.

[-] Trollivier@sh.itjust.works 3 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Here's something unique. The album "Acheron" by Mechina.

I don't think it's in your regular taste. But it's unique enough to be a suggestion.

[-] FrostyTrichs@walledgarden.xyz 4 points 23 hours ago

Watch !sessionjams@sh.itjust.works you never know what might get posted.

Something different - Lorn - Just listen to everything xD

To stay more hip hop

Cult of the Damned and all of their side projects, Lee Scott is a fucking son and pretty much everything he touches is gold. My particular favourite is the "Cult Mountain" side project.

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.

[-] ndondo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 day ago

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

Suite for Ma Dukes by Miguel Atwood Ferguson. Live recording of a Dilla tribute concert with a 60 piece orchestra. Stakes Is High with Posdnuos and Talib Kweli is a standout. Album is on Bandcamp and the full concert video is on YouTube.

In the World: From Natchez to New York by Olu Dara. He's the father of Nas (who guests on the album) and an accomplished jazz musician in his own right, but this isn't a jazz album. Okra is in my top three songs about food.

Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway. A mashup of De La Soul and Fela Kuti. "Music is the weapon. Music is the future. Music is the weapon of the future."

[-] Zane@aussie.zone 2 points 30 minutes ago

Oh man, speaking of Kweli, his Black Star album with Mos Def needs a mention
