^ Yeah, you're right! Just like a slower version of that song.

Unimpressed. This sounds like filler from "I Am..."

This has been my jam since the album came out, but I never expected it to be a hit. I think it's because Odd Future is starting to accumulate a little bit of hype.

This is my jam now. Definitely my favorite single from him... This would fit in perfectly on US radio, very poppy and mainstream.

I'm not all that impressed. I actually liked "Awooga" more than this. Hmm... I wonder whether he's decided to stop singing on his own songs. I hope not!

Now that "What You Know" is an official hit, I really think they should consider re-releasing some of their earlier singles. Those songs were as good, if not better than WYK, but just had no exposure.
I vote for "Something Good" followed by "Undercover Martyn."

I actually think they've got a few hits left on the album, if they play their cards right. This is a great single choice..

This is one of the most ineptly handled albums I've ever seen for an established artist. I guess you guys are right about this, because I didn't even know it had been released.

The whole Ryan Leslie situation frustrating.
He's a great talent with great lyrics and an awesome voice, but his production always falls just a little short. Paired with the right producer, I think he could nail down some decent hits. This isn't going to be one of them.

This song is hot. But the success has much more to do with Busta and Weezy than Chris. This is like a "My Chick Bad," where the featured artist completely upstages the primary artist.

Wow! "Lately" is hands-down my favorite Tyrese song. I'm interested to hear her sing it, but it'll be hard to top the original.

This is hot. I heard it on the radio once a couple of weeks ago. It's no "Shackles," but I hope it can do some damage at mainstream urban.

They're coming with a new alum this year. About damned time.

The acoustic version of this song is where it's at. Their writing is good, but the production is pretty bland on many of the tracks on this album.

Aeroplane is a one-man production act out of Belgium that dropped the album We Can't Fly in September. It's basically a collection of pop/disco/electro tunes. Some of the tracks sound like updated Queen or Donna Summer songs, while others are far more modern.
Overall, it's a great album -- not much else like it in my collection. Here is my favorite track off the album: "We Can't Fly."

Even though this album came out last year, it's my favorite discovery of 2011 so far.
MiMOSA is a California-based DJ who churns out some of the hottest soulful, electro/dubstep I've heard in years. The albums are fully instrumental. Some of the tracks serve more as ambient music, while the others are in-your-face and energetic.
Here's one of the tracks I've been wearing out over the last few weeks: "When Will We Learn."

Sweet! I really warmed up to them with this last album. I'm glad to see them head in this direction!

Yeah, this is nice but not an alum that I'll be playing for months and months like their last one.
You guys need to check out "Glittering Clouds" (one of their earliest songs) if you've never heard it. It knocks!

Yesss! I love this album -- even though it took a while to grow on me. Pretty authentic 80s sound without sounding stale.

Man, I usually never go for these completely stripped-down acoustic songs but I really like this. Thanks for posting.

Yeah, definitely. I didn't like it at first but it grew on me during the summer.

I like this too. I was scared they were all done after their second album, but it sounds like they've still got some good music left in them.
"Hang Me Up To Dry" will forever be my jam, though.

Nicki's verse STILL SLAYS Agreed. I usually just fast forward to her verse.
