This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2004 album from El-P, High Water.
A pure instrumental album, jazz stylings with heavy hip-hop influence. If you’re looking for hip-hop, you’re going to enjoy this. And if you’re looking for some very creative jazz, you’re going to enjoy this as well. Regardless, you will enjoy it, the stream is below!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2009 album from Kid Cudi – Man on the Moon: The End of the Day.
A wonderful album. Albeit a little bit on the emo side, especially for a hip-hop album, but you really have to appreciate the amazing songs on this track. My personal favourite is Pursuit of Happiness – mostly because of the involvement of MGMT, but every song on here is listenable. I hope you enjoy the album, the stream is below!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2001 album from Bilal – 1st Born Second.
Oldie but a goodie, this album is very mellow and old school, with some interesting vocals laid on top. A couple of big names making an appearance (Like Common and Mos Def!) and it was a fantastic album to wake up to. The stream is below, hope you enjoy!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2009 remix album from Panacea – The Re Route.
The Re Route is essentially a remix album of Panacea’s 2007 The Scenic Route and has a bunch of different producers throwing their weight into the mix. Definitely a high energy album that I had on loop for the entirety of my Saturday, give it a listen with the stream below and I hope you enjoy it!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2008 album from the Shinsight Trio – Shallow Nights Blurry Moon.
The main focus on this album for me was mainly the beats, because they are just so smooth, very much reminiscent of Nujabes and Kero One, definitely one of my new favourite albums. My list is growing way too large. The stream is below, hope you enjoy!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2006 album from Aceyalone, accompanied by the one and only RJD2 – Magnificent City.
This is a fantastic album because the infectious back beats produced by RJD2 combined with the intelligent and pleasant-sounding emceeing of Aceyalone makes for one of the better albums I have ever heard. I loved it all the way through, and I hope you do too! The stream is below, enjoy!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am featuring the 2008 album from People Under The Stairs – FUN DMC.
This is a great album from People Under The Stairs, whom I discovered with this album, because of the broad variety of genres present in this album. It started off very jazzy and threw in bits of electronica and reggae to name a couple other genres. You should definitely give it a listen, the stream is below. Enjoy!

This week on Soulful Sundays, I am showcasing the 2007 album from Y Society – Travel at Your Own Pace.
Travel at Your Own Pace feels like a really old school hip-hop album with the very simple beats and great emcees. I loved listening to it, and so I hope you guys enjoy it too!

This week on Soulful Sundays, the 2008 album from Substantial – Sacrifice.
Definitely love this album, mellow jazz beats with great emceeing from the man himself, Substantial. Substantial has done quite a bit of work with Nujabes, which is how I learned of him, and I’ve been a fan for a long enough time. His lyrics are intelligent and he has a very relaxed flow, which complements the jazz in the background perfectly. The stream is below, enjoy!
