A little late. Here are my favorites from last month. What’d I miss?

G-Side, The One…Cohesive: A rap album actually “bigger than hip-hop.” I mean, what sounds like this? It does all the things rap should do, but it does a lot more too. Review here.
Tabi Bonney, Postcard From Abroad: A chick named Smiles Davis slices up MOR indie for overrated, underrated, bugged-out actually #BASED DC rapper, Bonney. Share his world of “bicep curls and beautiful girls.”
James Nasty, The Truth About James Nasty: A hyper-concentrated dose of frantic, rubbery, dance. “I Got Sunshine” might just bring tears to your eyes. How often does club music do that? Review here.
Blaqstarr, Divine EP: Once you tire of James Blake’s Clapton-y coffee-shop dubstep, get lost in Blaq’s parochial singer-songwriter Baltimore club. Review here.
DB Tha General, Young O.G 2: More than a whole CD-R’s worth of worldly-wise raps and spazzy 80s beats that slap. The anti-BLVCK Diamond Life.
