Home Is Where The Music Is
Hugh Masekela
Listened on my drive home from work and it was a solid album for a night drive. I get it’s a jazz album but some of the songs could have been tightened up. Inner Crisis was great. I felt like a 1970s big city detective on my way to the big bust. 3.5

I’ve come to learn jazz is nice driving music, especially at night. Had Moon Dreams on repeat. 3.5/5

Music in Exile
Songhoy Blues
A truly incredible album. This is the first album in a while that I’ve listened to front to back multiple times. Setting the tone right out of the gate with Soubour and just continuing with great songs that all have their own depth and uniqueness to keep the entire album a must listen. From bluesy songs like Sekou oumarou and Nick (shoutout for that one) to songs like Wayei and Jolie that have more of an indie/surfer rock guitar sound to the acoustic Petit Metier this album has a little bit of everything. And even though I don’t know what they’re saying, the vocals and harmonies sound fantastic. Shout out to Alex for giving me the heads up to listen to this one. 5/5 for sure
