NOPE, not even mildly interested in Hi Hop. BUT, the surf guitars group in masks sounds freekin great.

My listens,

British Sea Power, Decline of said Seapower. Hmmm, lotsa good reviews here will keep it in my playerer till I make a definitive like/dislike decision. Definitely different.

Some old Tom Verlaine LP thats kickin

Yech's Winter Sampler II, my P.O.S. OEM car player doesn't like it, I do

Master Daveys end of yr comp. We both like it

Bowie's Reality, only 1 listen, no opining yet

Dave Brubeck Quartet's Time Out, so classic it'll never get old

Donovan, Storyteller, a Steve Hoffman SACD, well recorded, BUT, Catch the Wind totally acoustic and very Dylanesque, and no Season Of The Witch. Two horrible errors/omissions. rest is very good tho

Hendrix, Axis

Hendrix, Band Of Gypsys

Daniel Lanois, Shine, one part Robbie Robertson, two parts later Nick Lowe, mix with GREAT production values, stir gently, and savor this sucker.

thats about it, tons more to listen to.
