Hidden Artist Gem: There Existed an Addiction to Blood by Clipped
Daveed Diggs is a talented American artist best known for his Grammy and Tony-winning role in the musical Hamilton. Lesser known but as incredible is his work as part of the horrorcore/hip-hop trio Clipping. The group's music is off the wall, eclectic-ly electrifying, earthy, authentic, and they're all insanely talented. Diggs and the crew provide an alternative point of view in regards to the global phenomenon that hip hop has been. It isn't flashy, it isn't ritzy, but it is real and in your face. Ever listened to 18 minutes of a piano burning and never thought to hit 'NEXT' on your player? No? Well, unless you're an avid Annea Lockwood fan, we've got a track for you to listen to and it's the last track on their October 2019 release There Existed an Addiction to Blood. The album as its name suggests, and just as gory so if you're faint of heart you might want to leave this in 2019.
That about wraps it up for this one. Feel like you know of some good music coming?
