They Hate Change - Finally, New - VINYL LP

If it's really a post-genre world, why does everything sound the same? The two halves of Tampa rap duo They Hate Change - Dre (he/him) and Vonne (they/them) - first came together in front of the apartment complex where they both lived as teens.

When they made the transition to rapping and making beats, they brought that pleasure-seeking approach to sonic experimentation with them. For anyone who's been feeling suffocated by the sameness that's been afflicting hip-hop and pop - where a small handful of ideas gets recycled endlessly, and a spin through the big new- playlists quickly devolves into a blur - They Hate Change's Jagjaguwar debut, Finally, New lives up to it's name.
