Talib Kweli and producer Hi Tek are Reflection Eternal. No need for catchy hooks and gimmicky dance moves here! Hi Tek's production is smooth as butter, carrying verses from guests Jay Electronica and J. Cole flawlessly aloft like an air hockey table. Or an air train. Or something else airy and soft. (I'm clearly not a master at metaphors).  I think I'm finally starting to become a real Hi Tek fan. This track in particular is so crazy, Mos Def only comes on to give Just Begun that familiar, old-school, NYC, the-home-of-real-hip-hop, feel. Is hip-hop back from the dead?

Eg

Ellie Goulding's debut album, Lights, dropped on March 1st. I was going nuts when I heard her two singles Under the Sheets and Starry Eyed so it's needless to say I was trying not to hype her album up for fear of a major letdown.

I finally got around to listening to it and, sadly enough, Under the Sheets is still my favorite track. Only Salt Skin and Wish I Stayed are still playing in my head. Otherwise, nothing about Lights stands out. Some of the electo elements throughout the album feel a little forced and borderline gimmicky. I think I was expecting the production to be a little harder but I'll just have leave that to the remixes (see below).

Her voice is still very interesting, and her production can still be very fun. I'm not giving up on Ellie yet.
