Kid Cudi - Blue Sky

2024 has started strong in terms of album releases, but the most exciting is probably the return of Kid Cudi, with 'INSANO' and features the likes of Pharrell, A$AP Rocky, Travis Scott and loads more. The penultimate track is 'Blue Sky' and feels like classic Cudi, and is one of my favourite things that he's released in recent times. Buy & stream the album here.

Puma Blue - Hounds

The House of Coxhead is mostly about new music, but sometimes the word 'new' can mean just discovered. On my mission to listen to an album every day, I came across Puma Blue (Jacob Allen) for the first time; a London-based artist, whose music is like nothing I've heard before. There is a real depth, in every sense, to both the production and the lyrics on the new album 'Holy Waters' from September. My favourite from the album was 'Hounds', which actually dropped over a year ago. So happy to have this in my life.

Slauson Malone 1 - New Joy

Discovering artists like Slauson Malone 1 is the exact reason for restarting The House Of Coxhead. His style, sound and whole vibe is so refreshing on every level. Someone on YouTube described it as "a mix of Crumb, Steve Lacy, Thundercat and Brockhampton, but somehow unique and easily stands out", and it feels like a very accurate statement. Support the album here.

A new track from the incredibly exciting AQUILO, which is taken from their forthcoming EP, set to be released on May 31st through B3SCI. There is a real old skool feel throughout, with lots of forward-thinking elements, which creates a truly unique sound - one of my favourite acts in the UK right now.
