The New York rapper’s tenth album showcases his turn from athletic feats on the mic to more expressive modes, backed by some of his best production yet.
Best Comic of the Week:
Grendel: Devil’s Odyssey #5 – It’s been about a year since the last issue, but it’s all good, as I’m just happy to return to Grendel Prime’s mission, looking for a suitable planet to restart the human race. The latest candidate is a massive, planet-sized city that appears to have been fully automated, where the mechanisms that kept the city running are still working, even though all life has been extinguished. Matt Wagner has a real Twilight Zone vibe working for him here, as he takes a couple of issues to explore a science fiction concept. I like this series, and will forever think of Grendel Prime as my favourite Grendel. He’s also the coolest looking.
