Here’s my 100 most listened to albums on last.fm for reference of what my taste is like, don’t let that stop you from recommending me things you think I won’t like though I’m trying to expand my horizons.
I also like listening to small artists, I write a series of artist features all about people less than a million Spotify listeners so if you have any recommendations for that lmk.

How you got not RTJ?!
Listen to all 4 RTJ albums pls
Maybe try:
- The Rise of Hobo Johnson by Hobo Johnson
- Outside The Box by Hacktivist
- Jurassic 5 by Jurassic 5
- Control System by Ab-Soul
Big Boi and Phantom made a collab album.
Laurie Anderson - Strange Angels
Phantomime - Mori Calliope
Deltron 3030.
Hes the rapper for the gorillaz but also has/had a solo career before/during/after the gorillaz as del the funkee homosapien.
The album is a sci-fi futurism concept hip hop album.
I love Gorillaz and have listened to Deltron 3030 plenty of times but never made the connection!
Our musical tastes seem almost perfectly aligned, so I’ll try and throw out a few curve balls:
- AJR - pretty corny, but fuck if almost every song ain’t a bop.
- The Districts - A Flourish and a Spoil
- Mansions - Dig Up the Dead
- Stop Light Observations - oRANGE.
- Disco Elysium Soundtrack has been my go to of late when I don’t want lyrics cluttering my head.
disco elysium soundtrack is fiiiiire
Aesop rock - Skelethon
The drums are just 🤱
I listen to several of the same rap albums as OP and I also love some Aesop Rock.
Hell of a good album. Cycles to Gehenna slaps, fryerstarter is a little surreal. A good chunk of his albums have an instrumental versions too.
Ivan Torrent - Onyria
This guy makes amazing epic music. Can’t recommend him enough. All his other albums are great as well.
Mechanical Keyboard Sounds: Recordings of Bespoke and Customized Mechanical Keyboards
Edit: This is less music, and more relaxation sounds. But I really like it.
Suite for Ma Dukes by Miguel Atwood Ferguson. Live recording of a Dilla tribute concert with a 60 piece orchestra. Stakes Is High with Posdnuos and Talib Kweli is a standout. Album is on Bandcamp and the full concert video is on YouTube.
In the World: From Natchez to New York by Olu Dara. He’s the father of Nas (who guests on the album) and an accomplished jazz musician in his own right, but this isn’t a jazz album. Okra is in my top three songs about food.
Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway. A mashup of De La Soul and Fela Kuti. “Music is the weapon. Music is the future. Music is the weapon of the future.”
CunninLynguists - Will Rap for Food
Nappy Roots - Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz
Deltron Zero - Deltron 3030
Jurassic 5 - self titled album
Lupe Fiasco Food & Liquor
Deltron Zero - Deltron 3030
