Joell Ortiz – Monday [LP] + Interview w/ Streetsweeper Radio [Video]

New music from Joell Ortiz via the album Monday which features appearances and creative contributions from Big K.R.I.T., Apollo Brown, Blakk Soul, Nottz, Heatmakerz, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League and more. Standout cuts include the chest-out-proud winner’s chant “Sip Slow“; an unfiltered and confessional piece that talks about the intersection between masculinity and mental wellness called “Anxiety“; a lust-driven ode to the ladies who heat up the scene with their mere presence called “Jamaican Food“; a triumphantly stepping and aptly titled “Champion“;  and my personal favorite, a nostalgic call back to NYC block life set to a strumming 70’s steeped beat called “Before Hip-Hop“. You can listen to (and buy) the album via the links listed below as well as catch up on the latest music and news from Joell by making sure that you’re connected to him via the social links listed below.

“People have such a bad energy attached to Monday. I wanted to change the narrative. Monday can also be the start of something—the start of something fresh. On this record, I’m talking about some things I’ve wanted to talk about for a while. Getting some things off my chest. Clearing the air. It’s also playing on this idea like, ‘Hey, it’s Joell again. I’m back at it. Back to work.’ ” – Joell Ortiz
