There's not much to say about Billy Mercury because there's not much on the
Internet about him besides a introductory vide

But
Billy Mercury is the artist that you stumble upon, and immediately share
with your friends. When you take the aux and play Billy Mercury, people
say, "Wow you have really good taste in music." A self-proclaimed champion
of peace and R&B revival, Billy Mercury dropped an incredible 14 track
album in 2017 called *The SOULution*. The tape is almost an east coast
version of Anderson .Paak's *Malibu*, but it sounds more
good-Chrisitan-soul-man-honesty than .Paak. It's a polished album, and you
can't help but fall in love with Billy's warm raspy voice.
*FEATURED MUSIC*
*Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, SZA*
Black Panther The Album Music From and Inspired By

After much anticipation about this extraordinary powerhouse album, it
landed like a flashing spaceship. Very few people expected this type of
album from a Disney-backed production. Kendrick delicately balances
radio-ready bangers without compromising black identity. In each song, even
if it doesn't always deliver in terms of lyrics or beat, there is the ghost
of colonialism and racial inequality. Unlike other big-time movie
soundtracks (think Netflix's* Bright *which has already disappeared from
public conscious*)*, this one is will be heard coming from dorms for the
foreseeable future.
*Palm*
Rock Island
Palm is Hiatus Kaiyote meets Mac Demarco. “Rock Island” is so much more
than the kind of vapid, good-vibes ukulele aesthetic that would come to
mind when indie-rock meets island vibes. The album experiments with
tropical samples and looping polyrhythms, creating a dreamy, yet almost
terrifying atmosphere of isolation--a sense of losing one’s self into the
drugged-out sounds and mindless technological absorption of our modern era,
enveloping the listener into an inescapable sonic island. The project is
tied together with stunning vocals from Eve Alpert. Great avant-garde
pop-rock. Intellectually challenging and beautiful, in an almost alien way.
