Ari Lennox has been my vibe lately and homegirl just dropped her debut album “Shea Butter Baby” [FINALLY]. J. Cole’s protege gives us real, soulful vibes and anecdotes at the end of every song (please don’t skip them). My favorite anecdote (from the song ‘New Apartment’) goes something like: “Your furniture is not gonna fucking teach you how to dougie, It’s not gonna teach you how to swim, it’s not gonna teach you how to roller skate; and that’s when I realized OH MY GOD, I NEED PEOPLE!” And If that doesn’t speak directly to those of us who are loners and think we don’t need anyone… I honestly don’t know what does. Some honorary mentions off the album:
– BMO (Produced by Omen, Elite, Ron Gilmore & Galt MacDemort)
– Speak To Me (Produced by Elite & Ron GIlmore)
– New Apartment (Produced by DJ Grumble & Elite)
– Facetime (Produced by Graig Brockman & J.Cole)
