fr really good first single. i wanna go to paris i wanna go to spain

Favorite album of January:

Bruiser Wolf- My Story Got Stories

Probably my 3rd favorite member of Bruiser Brigade now after Danny and ZelooperZ. Proves that Danny knows what hes doing.

Wolf sounds like Cee-Lo mixed with Sugafree at times. Really unique flows and fun beats on this project.

Favorite single of January:

Maxo Kream- Bang The Bus

Evilgiane learned well from Clams Casino, Maxo delivered a banger as well

shaleirose's Favorite Album of January 2024: Kali Uchis - ORQUÍDEAS

Kali starting off the year with a home run! Always been a casual fan of her but I love this project so much, can definitely see myself replaying this throughout the entire year (in the summertime especially).

shaleirose's Favorite Single of January 2024: Justin Timberlake - Selfish

A little bit biased on this one since Justin is one of my favorite musicians of all time, and I admit this single isn't like a slam dunk or anything but in my opinion it was a nice, albeit safe, return to form after the big miss that was Man of the Woods. The hook on this song has literally been stuck in my head since I first heard the snippet, and this is a sweet little appetizer before the album drops in March.

only spun it once so far but the Bruiser Wolf was a tough listen, i like his style

Kali really did give us something great to start off the year. energetic, eclectic, FLAVOR. reminds me how CAPRISONGS started off 2022 with those same vibes. would you say it's your favorite Kali project?

i know i'd receive that JT single differently if it was a deep cut on the album, or even like a 3rd single. it's a fine song. but didn't grab my attention like i thought a comeback JT single would. can't not be excited for a JT album tho, legend!

(ALBUM 1/30/2024) DJ Lucas & DVNTBEATS "Lil Old Town"

(ALBUM 2/1/2024) Tha God Fahim & Cookin Soul "Supreme Dump Legend: Soul Cook Saga"

Yeah, I really enjoyed Red Moon In Venus last year but ORQUÍDEAS is easily my favorite work of hers. And that’s a spot on comparison, definitely feels like it started off the year in a similar way to CAPRISONGS did back in 2022

And yeah I agree on the JT point, definitely expected a bigger splash with the comeback single, but I still think it’s a cute song and I’m glad we got a song like that out of the way instead of it being one of the new songs on album release day. It feels like the next single or two are gonna be the big hitters
