Album Of The Day: Adventures In Technicolour by Imperial & Kinetik

Album Art of Imperial and Kinetik's Adventures In Technicolour album - A photo from the waist up of what looks like the body of a man in a collared shirt, but where his head should be, it's just a bunch of brightly colored dirt or other small particles bursting out of the neck area of the shirt. The colors are green and blue on the left, orange and neon green in the middle, and bright pink and red on the right. In the background, some clouds of various colors can also be seen. At the top, it has the artist names in a white color, somewhat large. At the bottom, the album name in smaller white print.

Released 9 years ago earlier this month, this is an album from two British hip-hop heads: DJ/Producer Imperial and rapper Kinetik. I'll be honest, I partially checked out this album because the album cover art was so cool. And when I gave it a listen, I found the music was just as cool. Imperial's beats are high-quality and so fun to listen to. And Kinetik's raps are excellent; I love that British accent. Maybe I haven't been listening to enough Conscious Hip-Hop for the past decade, but much of the genre feels a bit underground and an acquired taste. However, I feel like Adventures In Technicolour sounds as good as and just like mainstream hip-hop. I don't know; maybe I just need to listen to more hip-hop. If you like some stylish rap that has more to say than just bragging about money and girls, give this album a listen and let me know what you think.
