The variety on these two albums is very impressive, although I\u2019m sure that some people may find it a little bit too much.<\/p>\n<p>N*ggas on the moon has some great songs, and is focused more on electronic dance\/trap beats that even include some sample from Bjork. N*ggas on the moon is a decent album by itself, but it\u2019s really the addition of the second disk, Jenny Death, that makes this double album endeavor so outstanding.<\/p>\n<p>On Jenny death, there are a lot more heavy guitars and less trap-like beats in the background that give the album an even more chaotic, raw, and in-your-face feel. Not that N*ggas on the Moon isn\u2019t dark and aggressive, but Jenny Death takes Death Grips to a whole new level.<\/p>\n<p>Death Grips have really done it here. This sure is no ordinary hip-hop album. I don\u2019t even know if you could call it hip-hop anymore. This is a hybridized musical monster that is far more subversive than anything than anything else that has come out this year and maybe even this decade. This album has an extremely high replay value. I must have played both \u201cinanimate sensation\u201d and \u201cWhy a b*tch gotta lie\u201d at least 15 times within one week.<\/p>\n<p>What is just so great about Death Grips is that they do not hold anything back. There is nothing that they are afraid of doing; a philosophy that many other artists should adhere to.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: Death Grips<br \/>\nRecommended Tracks: Disc 1: 1,2,3,6 Disc 2: 1,2,4,8<br \/>\nDo Not Play: Lol<br \/>\nWritten by Sam Hatcliff on 04\/17\/2015 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The punkest rap album OF ALL TIME.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[182],"tags":[3002,3005,3004,3006,3003],"class_list":["post-33925","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hip-hopelectronic-rotation","tag-death-grips","tag-jenny-death","tag-niggas-on-the-moon","tag-ride","tag-the-powers-that-b"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33925","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33925"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33925\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
