#24
Jean Grae & Quelle Chris
| Everything’s Fine
Mello Music Group

According to Jesse Ducker: “Everything’s Fine is the best full-length album that either emcee has ever been involved with. The pair, now engaged to be married to each other, possesses an undeniable chemistry on record. Through their raps, they convey equal parts despair, reflection, and humor when considering the dumpster fire that human existence has degenerated into. But even while staring into the abyss, they fight against apathy and complacency.

Everything’s Fine is the strongest hip-hop album to be released in 2018 thus far, and has set a high bar for other artists to reach for the rest of the year. It’s as good as any album I can think of that creates a rich musical realm that allows the artists to flex the breadth and depth of their skills, as well as articulate their own unique worldview. I hope the duo continue to record music together, because they’re already achieving—if not exceeding—their potential.”
