Before Outkast got big and released hits like "Aquemini" and "Stankonia", they dropped this gem of an album. "ATLiens" has been my jam for the past few weeks now. It's a great album, featuring top notch rapping and dope jazzy beats. The first five or six songs are perfect, but really the entire album is awesome. Do yourself a favor and give it a listen.

Nosaj Thing is performing this Saturday for KSCR at Groundzero, USC. Totally free show. Definitely come on by and check it out. Show starts at seven. Be there! Oh, and here's some music to get you excited:

Perhaps the best solo Wu-Tang release? It's debatable, but this record is definitely up there. Anyways, this album has some real bangers and does a pretty good job mixing in some pretty bad ass samurai movie samples. RZA's production and GZA's rapping are both really solid (although GZA does sound a bit tooooo relaxed at times). Plus, the art work is beyond dope. Check it out if you haven't already:
Liquid Swords4th Chamber
Yeah. You should buy it too.
