Your Face or Your Kneecaps

RJD2

A frantic, 39-track masterclass in turntablism. Dusty soul loops, jagged breaks, and cinematic vignettes captured in a raw, mixtape-style collage.

A high-energy, kaleidoscopic journey through urban grit and soulful nostalgia.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The seamless transition from the soulful vocal of Black Woman into the frantic percussion of Tanga Boo Gonk
The jarring but brilliant juxtaposition of Jethro Tull's Cross Eyed Mary with a heavy hip hop breakbeat
The way the album finally settles into the extended, rain-soaked melancholy of the closing tracks
