What It Is: The first full-length album from the collaborative project between indie singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, rapper Serengeti, and electronic musician Son Lux.
Why You May Have Missed It: Normally, Sufjan Stevens is pretty popular—his 2010 album The Age of Adz charted all the way at #7. But Serengeti’s unpopularity must be more powerful, because this didn’t chart at all.
Why You Should Hear It: Serengeti is one of my favorite rappers, and in the moments on Sisyphus when he’s clearly in control of things, the record is as good as anything any of the three artists have released.
Highlights: “Booty Call,” “Rhythm of Devotion,” “Lion’s Share,” “Alcohol.”
