Artist: Jay Rock
Album: 90059
Label: Top Dawg Entertainment
iTunes: http://itu.nes/90059
Throughout the year, we’ve seen notable West Coast album releases from the likes of Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar, Vince Staples, and Odd Future to name a few. Before Top Dawg Entertainment became arguably the biggest independent labels in all of music, there was teenager from the Watts section of Los Angeles who would help lay down the blueprint for his younger Black Hippy brothers to follow with ScHoolboy Q, Ab-Soul and K. Dot.
We know you’ve been waiting for The Rock all this time, as the TDE rapper finally blesses listeners with the long-awaited and overdue release of his sophomore album, 90059. Outside of obviously Black Hippy, the 11-track affair has appearances from his Top Dawg family of Isaiah Rashad and SZA, as well as Lance Skiiiwalker and Busta Rhymes.
From our experiences with the project so far, this is the perfect way to close out the final days of summer, especially if you have a ride to properly blast this joint in this weekend. Take a listen to the entire album below, which is available for purchase on iTunes now.
