Bought some new shit yesterday

Yeaaa! Finally got off my arse and picked up a couple of new releases...

First the new album from Denmark's L.O.C. - 'Melankolia/XxxCouture', a double album dealing with the 7 cardinal sins from 2 points of view, one on each disc, I have only had one listen so far, but it seems fine and throughly worked through, looking forward to getting deeper into the album. Great productions on the album as well!

Next up is Pete Rock with 'Ny's Finest', a new album from THE MAN! One of my fave producers and beat-makers and even though this album only has gotten one spin so far, it's not a let down, it seems damn damn fine, not more than 2-3 weak tracks it seems. With emcees as Styles P and Sheek louch, Redman, The Lords Of The Underground, Raekwon, Masta Killa and Papoose things can't go much wrong.

The last disc is not that new, it was released last summer, namely Guru's Jazzmatazz Vol. 4 - 'Back To The Future'. Again Guru and producer Solar going nuts in jazzy beats and supreme emcee skills, Guru still has it and there are of course as always a lot of superb guest performances on the album.
