#919 Don't Talk to the Cops - Champions of Breakfast

This Seattle group's latest is a strange brew of instrumental hip hop, regular hip hop, and art-rock pastiche. Clearly unburdened by any particular constraints, genre-oriented or otherwise, the emphasis is on effortless, angular fun, like a less-political The Coup. Champions of Breakfast is a strange soundtrack to a strange party, one where your guests assume you've put on an eclectic, slightly inappropriate playlist, but don't say anything because they've got to admit it kinda works and nobody wants to chance breaking the spell 4/5
