“ Monomania is the greatest album I’ve ever made and anybody that doesn’t like it has no idea what I’m about or what I’m doing.

I think it’s a ghetto.”

I have music for you
paragraph.comHere’s my year-end playlists. Been doing this for a long time. Hope you find something you enjoy. I’m getting the hell off Paragraph soon, but until then, that’s where these things live. I wish it was easier to do email lists like the tinyletter days.
In no particular order, these are ten albums released this year that I enjoyed. Are they the best? I dunno. Who cares? I don’t want to argue or invite discussion about that sort of thing. I do, however, want to introduce people to music they might not otherwise hear.
