New Releases for March 15, 2024

KACEY MUSGRAVES DEEPER WELL - INTERSCOPE CD/LP

The album’s greatest triumph, then, is its normalcy. It reveals André 3000 to be nothing more than a guy with solid taste in outré music, another Angeleno in deceptively expensive workwear who’s probably been listening to Midori Takada since the YouTube rip. His ability to fit in and play along on New Blue Sun suggests he could easily spend the next 30 years making insular but genuinely interesting records for a small pool of devotees, riding off into well-earned obscurity like Laraaji in a Cadillac. Few stars of his caliber have managed an artistically and personally fulfilling post-fame career without repudiating what they did to become famous—or, worse, rehashing it. That he’s made such a thing possible is a significant achievement. - THE GUARDIAN


21 SAVAGE AMERICAN DREAM - SLAUGHTER GANG CD/LP

21 is out here living the American dream, long past the expected career lifespan of a modern-day rapper in today’s frenzied pop culture landscape. It’s a bit disappointing that he doesn’t quite delve into his immigration battle and its ensuing impact that the title portends, but the album is a portrait of an artist in rich command of his pen atop both consistently luxurious and eerily sparse beats. “American Dream”won’t go down as the definitive 21 album, but it proves that he’s nowhere near short on material. He peeled back a few layers, but he’s got so much more to explore. - VARIETY
