Black Milk – “Sunday’s Best/Monday’s Worst”
The Detroit rapper/producer/Dilla disciple Black Milk has a new album coming sometime this year, and the first thing he’s let anyone hear from it is a two-part song called “Sunday’s Best/Monday’s Worst” — two songs that work as a single continuous piece of music, sort of like “We Will Rock You” and “We Are The Champions.” The first half, “Sunday’s Best,” is claustrophobic, gospel-laced boom-bap, while the second half, “Monday’s Worst” is a gloriously airy soulful thing that tells a tragic first-person story. Listen to both below.
“Sunday’s Best/Monday’s Worst” is out on iTunes now, and an as-yet-untitled new album is due later this year.
