March Playlist :

Young Fathers - DEAD

When these guys won the Mecury award I wasn't too sure. I don't think I'd listened to them before then and was kind of miffed that FKA Twigs had missed out on it. Having said that, I'm now kicking myself, waiting for their new album to drop. This album from last year is a beaut, and every single song speaks for itself and isn't overshadowed by another. Keeping my fingers crossed they'll be announced on the Glastonbury line-up!

Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly

I've been waitinggg for this album for what seems like forever and it certainly doesn't disappoint! It's a shame it leaked early and it's also a shame that it's not going to be released on vinyl, but I guess it doesn't matter when the album is soOo good.

Raury - Indigo Child

This guy is my Spotify find of the month. I've never heard him before scrolling through this week's New to Spotify... This six song album is just brilliant and 'God's Whisper' is the track you should all go listen to riiight now...

Rag'n'Bone Man - Wolves

I went a Rag'n'Bone Man gig last weekend at the Deaf Institute in Manchester. I've been to a lotttt of gigs in my time, but somehow that was the first at that venue and we ended up stood next to Bipolar Sunshine all night! The gig was bloody brilliant and I've got a lot of time for his soulful voice, so I've had this album on repeat since!

What have you lot been listening to over the last month?

February Playlist :

Drake

Errr duh. Of course Drake. Drake's my number 1 since forever. Granted this mixtape is certainly nothing on nothing was the same. But in my eyes he can really do no wrong. 

Apart from appearing in a particular Nicki Minaj video. But we can get past that.

Father John Misty

One of my favourite things about Spotify is the ability to find amazing artists you've never even heard of before in just a few clicks. This guy in particular is one of those, found through a few 'similar artists'. How cool is that album artwork?!

Jose Gonzalez

He's like a Swedish Ben Howard. Vestiges & Claws is a brilliant, brilliant, beautiful album and if you haven't listened to it yet you're seriously missing out.

Flying Lotus

I'm going to see this guy at some point over the next couple of months and I'm SO excited. This album is genius and I've had it on repeat in between intense Drake sessions...
