i think you underestimate how much time some of us spend listening to/looking for new music. the only thing i hadn't heard was Nurses (which turns out, is awesome!)

i've been trying to put a list together but i just started a new job and i'm super lazy. over the past few days A$AP Rocky's album has been on freakin' repeat.
