Audio: ThinkLoud - Droppin Mirrors // Album Rel. 18.06.2010

Thinkloud:
Droppin' Mirrors is a musical cross-section of past collaborations, as well as a glimpse of projects to come.But what makes this compilation special?The tracks featured are no mere licensed releases, nor are they a "Best Of" of ThinkLoud's back catalogue. Droppin' Mirrors contains almost nothing but exclusive productions. These are the natural result of joint shows with, and tours managed by ThinkLoud's DJ Conikt across Germany and Europe. We managed to get artists like Aloe Blacc (Stones Throw), Kev Brown (Up Above), Grand Agent (Superrappin') and Oddisee&TrekLife (Diamond District) on board. At the same time, young and talented artists like Portformat, Shuanise, Fid Mella, and others have found their way onto the album. They embody the very sound we are aiming for.A major portion of the songs were composed by in-house producer Stroe, and recorded together with the guest artists in Berlin.The result is a genre-crossing product that transcends its roots in Rap, Experimental, and neo-Soul.Droppin' Mirrors sets sail towards electronically fragmented, soulful beats, deconstructivist arrangements, and unconventional ideas to let a charm of its own flourish.

Audio: J. Cole - Higher // Mp3

I really liked "Who Dat" when it dropped. This time it`s a bit smoother and includes mostly lines directed towards the females. Basically the usual sex talk that you`ll find in any rap song...and it seems like there are still a million ways to say: I wanna fuck you.
Still this fresh...very fresh.
