    Joey Bada$$ – “No. 99″ (prod. Statik Selektah)

    The Needle Drop

    What makes Joey Bada$$ such an interesting MC at the moment is, not surprisingly, his combination of youth and talent. This combination leaves us with a technically gifted rapper who is currently at the most crucial moment in his career. While he certainly deserves to succeed, there is always a

    Torche - "Minions"

    The Needle Drop

    Every time I listen to Torche, I catch myself thinking how much cooler they would sound if they dropped a bit of screamo to match the bassy, grinding, sludge metal-influenced guitar lines that have become their signature sound.

    Dirty Beaches - "Time Washes Away Everything"

    The Needle Drop

    Dirty Beaches has been laid to rest, but Alex Zhang Hungtai remains a wanderer.

    J. Cole - 2014 Forest Hills Drive

    The Needle Drop

    Even after stripping back the hooks and instrumentals, and giving himself center stage, there isn’t much outside of J. Cole’s baseline technical abilities that makes him a compelling rapper and lyricist.

    Perfume Genius - "Fool" (Video)

    The Needle Drop

How exactly would this musical transition be handled? Well, with violet curtains, a feather boa,
