However, any album also featuring Skrillex (see hyperkinetic trap banger “Drum Machine”) and 9th Wonder on production credits (via the left coast-leaning soul track “Put It on Her”) is clearly staring into rap and dance’s oddly conjoined future, making sense of it, and discovering fun in the progressive grooves. “Fell in the Sun,” the lead single beloved by the underground, has a steady kick drum loop and saxophone swatches warping and emerging from the bassline. On the surface, the hybrid sounds solid, but once Big Boi finds the connective tie between his flow and the group’s style, it becomes pure magic.

This year saw a number of established artists challenge their individual artistic trajectories via impeccable EPs, while a handful of up-and-comers made their voices heard via their EP projects. Built on a collection of tracks, EPs operate as individual chapters in the longer storyline of an artist. Often offering a preview into a larger project, usually an album, a true EP holds the power to stand on its own and deliver on its individual merit. The EP is often a sneak peek into the mind of an artist, a teaser look into the grander scheme of things.
