Artist: Dessa
Album: A Badly Broken Code
Genre: Hip-Hop
Heard of Dessa? No? That's a shame, but an understandable one; she's only released one official EP, and been featured on various Doomtree promos/experiments/etc, as well as appeared on a few of Doomtree acts' records -- like P.O.S.'s excellent album from last year. But she's finally getting an LP out there, and it's good. Female emcees are a rare breed, and even rarer are intelligent ones, but that's exactly what Dessa is. A Badly Broken Code is a solid album, an excellent showcase of her talents, and one of the better recent releases.
I'll say more on this album in my weekend summary next Sunday, once I get a better grasp of it, but I'm at loving this. I've had if for a little over two hours and I've already heard it three times. If you want to hear a sample, I've posted the first song, "Children's Work," over at Brave New Waves.
