Mick Jenkins – Pieces of a Man [LP] + Padded Locks & Barcelona [Video]

With his album Pieces of a ManChi-City griot Mick Jenkins scratches beneath the shallower surfaces of hip-hop and fame in order to tap into a sound that is substantive, quick-witted, intense, and (most importantly) dope as hell.  Some of my favorite joints include the deeply rooted and near-psychedelic “Stress Fracture” (featuring Mikahl Anthony), a velvety Cutlass-funk number called “U Turn” (which is topped off with some soulful Hammond B3 chords and slow swingin’ rhythms), a hectic and eclectic bit of defiance called  “Barcelona”, the Ghostface Killah-feature piece “Padded Locks”, and a bumpin’ rhymefest called “Reginald” (featuring Ben Hixon).  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 Mick Jenkins by making sure that you’re connected to him via the social links listed below.
