On Black Up, Shabazz Palaces take hip hop deep into the left field with odd beats and surreal effects. It's definitely an indulgent LP that requires a little bit of effort from the listener, but repeating these songs until they completely unfold is worth the wait.
Favorite tracks: FREE PRESS AND CURL, AN ECHO FROM THE HOSTS THAT PROFESS INFINITUM, SWERVE... THE REEPING OF ALL THAT WORTHWHILE, YEAH YOU, YOULOUGY
Least favorite track: ENDEAVORS FOR NEVER
