Veteran is the second studio from renowned Baltimore rapper, JPEGMAFIA. It was released on January 19 2018 by Deathbomb Arc and Republic Records. The album was released to widespread critical acclaim and brought JPEGMAFIA to the forefront of contemporary and experimental hip hop. NME, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Noisey, and Spin all listed Veteran in their top 100 albums of 2018. In 2019, Pitchfork listed it at number 171 in their list of best albums of the decade. The album features JPEGMAFIA's most streamed song, 1539 N. Calvert. As described by Pitchfork: "Entirely self-produced, Veteran is a remarkable exercise in sound and texture. At it's bestthe production makes the frayed edges of each element part of the atmosphere, a mess of distortion that works percussively and melodically." JPEGMAFIA has since established himself as one of today's premiere contemporary and experimental hip hop artists, with over 1.5M monthly listeners on Spotify, and 500K+ Instagram followers.

Top 10 hip hop AOTY
Best experimental hip hop album of the year . PEGGY does a fantastic blending different musical ideas & genres into one . On this record u can hear a clear blend of trap , industrial ,noise, r&b , 90s hip hop , drone , electronic . And his flow takes a harsh tone and a political edge reminiscent of ice cube , this music is refreshing in the modern hip hop landscape , give it a spin !

One of my favorite projects from 2018. Jpegmafia brings a new flavor to modern day hip hop production and continues to shift the genre in a new direction. If you're a fan of experimental hip hop then you definitely need to give this album a chance.
