27 Sep Black Milk – Album Of The Year | Album Review

There never seemed to be a doubt as to the intentions or expectations of Black Milk’s latest creation once the title was released. Accompanied by the frosty sirens and granite-covered drums of speculative single “How Dare You” weeks before the album was unleashed, Milk was prepared for naysayers and directed a pre-emptive strike with the line: 'Speaks his mind / never been scared to / Album of the Year / critics saying how dare you'. The song dripped with confidence and it appeared fans would be offered a continuation of the wildly fancied previous album Tronic. The fact that these preconceived notions are slightly off-target presents the unexpected yet refreshing nature of the Detroit native’s production.
