i didn't even know they had a new album eek gonna go check it out right now biggrin

And I do not dare to say it, but some things they do sound kinda Prince like.

Heavily influenced by the 80's that's for sure.

And apparently I'm not the only one who's thinking that....

thanks for the link, i'll read it when i get home later on.

and you're right about the prince thing. they even sample the time on one song

i distinctly remember hearing the "what time is it" yell a few times in a song.

and on the last album they had a beat constructed of the "IT" drum beat iirc, or

was it "hot thing", can't remember right now.

the sprinkling of horns on the new album also sound like prince inspired nod

Bilal-Airtight's Revenge

nod for me, the album of the year. In addition to it I have only bought two 2010 albums:

HIM - Screamworks: Love In Theory And Practice

The Ark - In Full Regalia

I still I haven't found a copy of 20ten or New Amerykah Part II for a reasonable price here in Finland.

I've become so predictable. lol neutral

Particularly this year. I've bought around 30 albums released in 2010 and only three of them featured male singers or mostly male vocals:

Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse - Dark Night Of The Soul

Mark Ronson & The Business International - Record Collection

Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty

The Mark Ronson album I sold on ebay because I didn't like it and I haven't listened to the Big Boi album yet even though I bought it months ago. confused

Really want to hear this - I've been a big fan, but not so much in the last 5 year or so, but I keep hearing good things about this one.

But I also have to say - I don't get the ArchAndroid thing at all. Love her voice, love her when someone else is writing - but that album (save for a few exceptions) is a hot mess. boxed

In no particular order...

- Jamie Lidell "Compass"

- Janelle Monae, "The Archandroid"

- Prince, "20Ten"

- Twin Shadow, "Forget" cloud9

- Erykah Badu, "New Amerykah Part II"

- Crystal Castles, "Crystal Castles (2010)"

- Big Boi, "Sir Luscious Big Foot"

- Gil Scott Heron, "I'm New Here"

- Bryan Ferry, "Olympia"

I hate to admit it... But it feels like I'm slowing drifting away from hip-hop... I grew up being a hip-hop lover... But my taste is shifting more and more to adult contemporary/pop/ambiant music... Fuck U Lil Waynes, 50 Cents and Nickis Garbage...

... Nuthing better when it comes to R&B confused sad

Oh yeah, I forgot Gil Scott Heron's new one...I downloaded the album on Amazon, but forgot to get a physical copy. Adding this one to the wishlist. Great album indeed! nod

It was great seeing him with a full band in October. The other times I'd seen him, it was with just a bass player or drummer. Great concert, excellent album.
