Father John Misty- God's Favorite Customer (Sub Pop, Bella Union)
"Mr. Tillman, are you ready?" Last year's Pure Comedy was one 2017's most celebrated releases, and rightfully so. Now, a little over a year later, GFC seems to be just as great! Fav tracks: Please Don't Die, God's Favorite Customer, We're Only People (And There's Not Much Anyone Can Do About That)
Owl City- Cinematic (Republic Records)
Cinematic is just as happy and synthy as I remember OC to be. When "All My Friends" was released back in November most fans didn't like it, but the alt version seems to be more well received. There's 2 other alt versions of songs, for "Firebird" and "Montana." "Lucid Dream" is my favorite. It's like straight from an EDC highlight video, and I'm here for it. That's how you study the stars.
Kanye West- Ye (G.O.O.D Music)
I'm live typing this as it happens. Ye walks up with Kim K by his side wearing a DIY-sharpied/ spray-painted shirt. Chris Rock introduces the album and name drops a bunch of big names in attendance at Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He proceeds "No black man has taken more advantage of his freedom than Kanye West." THE ALBUM STARTS. Intro is spoken word. ACTUAL album comes in, the crowd is loving it. I'm a superhero. As expected, the IFPI takes down the YouTube link me and 5,000 other people were watching, but it's cool, I had the app queued up. Album ends and loops itself.
