Disc!
While
Edan’s
critically
acclaimed
debut,
‘Primitive
Plus’,
was
a
celebration
of
hip-hop’s
golden
age
and
a
true
throwback,
his
sophomore
album,
‘Beauty
And
The
Beat’,
is
a
vast
musical
collage
that
contains
many
different
influences;
hip-hop,
rock,
pop,
dusty
breaks,
hazy
loops,
luxurious
off-kilter
samples
and
curveball
tempo
changes
that
are
all
crafted
into
one
cohesive
piece
of
art.
In
2015,
FACT
placed
it
at
number
30
on
the
"100
Best
Indie
Hip-Hop
Records
of
All
Time"

392
on
the
"500
Greatest
Albums

All
Time"
