What would you say the average length of an album is today? With streaming services being the King of the King, maybe releasing lots of music at one time is the way to go? Flying Lotus sure thinks so; the producer released a full length 27-track novel this morning titled Flamagra.
Like you would expect from any Flying Lotus work, this massive album ranges everywhere from heavy jazz to heavy R&B, lo-fi hip hop, and everything in between. It’s hard to put a label on Flamagra and that is exactly how Flying Lotus wants it. Pitchfork characterizes his work as “jazz-funk” and that is just about as accurate as one can get.
The album is a journey, one that should be listened to several times to appreciate its entirety. Featuring collaborative singles with Denzel Curry, Anderson .Paak, Toro y Moi, Thundercat, David Lynch, George Clinton, Little Dragon, and more, this album reaches and succeeds where many others would surely fail.
This is Flying Lotus sixth Studio album, and it could be his best body of work yet. Dive headfirst into ‘Flamagra’ below!
