Re: My 2018 playlist

Oh, "Enchanted Propaganda" is definitely a candidate for my 2018 Top 100, and "Work Out" (Jvcki Wai, Kid Milli, NO:EL, Young B, Swings) will almost certainly make it. Despite what I hope is an outlook that's drastically different from 6ix9ine's, the rappers on "Work Out" manage a quietly intense analogue to that frenetic song where 6ix9ine quotes the old bounce tracks about "Don't start no shit, won't be no shit," but "Work Out" does it inside out, kinda, where it's the background that's giving the musical warning. (Well, I guess you could say that 6ix9ine's backgrounds are always giving an eerily sad musical corrective to his posturing and risk-taking.) Meanwhile (back to "Enchanted Propaganda") I can imagine Jvcki Wai joining Bali Baby in jamming pretty sandpaper treble into listeners' ears.
