Shabazz Palaces - Black Up

I wrote most of this review during what was later confirmed to be an infected wisdom tooth episode. Weird blue Ibuprofen pills left over from NYC + Afrocentric, neo noir space-age hip hop. Some seriously beautiful joints on this album, and also some of the sexiest cover/sleeve art I've had the pleasure of running my fingers across (the picture does not do it justice - lush black felt and twinkling gold flake leaf).
