Here’s my 100 most listened to albums on last.fm for reference of what my taste is like, don’t let that stop you from recommending me things you think I won’t like though I’m trying to expand my horizons.
I also like listening to small artists, I write a series of artist features all about people less than a million Spotify listeners so if you have any recommendations for that lmk.
Punk rock for kids who can't skate, by destructo disk
and The power of positive drinking, by ashtrays
Suite for Ma Dukes by Miguel Atwood Ferguson. Live recording of a Dilla tribute concert with a 60 piece orchestra. Stakes Is High with Posdnuos and Talib Kweli is a standout. Album is on Bandcamp and the full concert video is on YouTube.
In the World: From Natchez to New York by Olu Dara. He's the father of Nas (who guests on the album) and an accomplished jazz musician in his own right, but this isn't a jazz album. Okra is in my top three songs about food.
Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway. A mashup of De La Soul and Fela Kuti. "Music is the weapon. Music is the future. Music is the weapon of the future."
Clube da Esquina 2
Based on your most listened, maybe try Little Simz, clipping, Fantasic Negrito (Album: Last Days of Oakland)
For something maybe a little outside the box I recommend The Books, Gramatik, Pretty Lights, Cosmo Sheldrake
A Tribe Called Quest - Beats, Rhymes, & Life
WITHERED or Paid Programming by BONES
Terraja Peyote asesino.
Generation Why by Zhu. I don't really care for most of Zhu's music, but this album I really enjoy. It's similar in style to 808s and heartbreak.
Since you are trying to expand your horizons here's a bunch of weird stuff I like:
