RJD2′s last album was mediocre. And I’m not used to associating that word with Ramble John. The Third Hand, RJ’s indie rock experiment, was a stylistic departure from his more superior work like Deadringer and 8 Million Stories. After the gigantic mind shift required to regain his mojo, RJ is back to his hip-hop roots. The Colossus (out January 19) is light on features and heavy on quality production. If you need something to get excited about this month, proceed for the tracklist.

1. Let There Be Horns
2. Games You Can Win (Feat. Kenna)
3. Giant Squid
4. Salud 2
5. The Glow

7. The Shining Path (Feat. Phonte Coleman)
8. Crumbs Off The Table (Feat. Aaron Livingston)
9. A Son’s Cycle (Feat. The Catalyst, Illogic & NP)
10. Tin Flower

12. Gypsy Caravan
13. The Stranger
