Since flysiifu is dropping on Friday I thought I’d do something fun and rank every album from my favorite rapper of the 2010’s, Pink Siifu : )
(This does not include the iiye beat tapes)

#15 - .UaReL(2015)
One of Siifu’s earliest projects, has some elements of his signature style but still developing, I see this mostly just as a transitional moment from iiye to Siifu, it’s really the only project that I’m not huge on in his discog but still an ok listen

#14 - heart on my face(2017)
Don’t really return to this that often but it’s still a pretty cool ep that has some really interesting and creative ideas throughout and the outro is one of my favorite Siifu moments

#13 - Bag Talk(2020)
Siifu’s 1st collab project of 2020 is a fun tape with yungmorpheus, it’s not one of my favs of his but I don’t think it’s trying to be, it’s just supposed to be a cool little tape to vibe to and I think it works perfectly as that.

#12 - Syrup(2019)
I wish there were more tracks on this but Syrup still has that great jazzy sound that Awhlee and Siifu have together which makes for a pretty good listen

#11 - Black Sand(2019)
This album brings out the best in Akai and is my favorite project from him. A very impactful and emotional project this one always hits very hard and they both have amazing chemistry and lyrically Siifu is at his best here at some moments.

#10 - twothousandnine(2016)
Swarvy is one of my favorite underground producers so I’m glad that him and Siifu made a collab project. Swarvy’s production on here is so great and some of these loops are the best Siifu has rid on. It’s a great jazzy vibe and a really fun listen.

#9 - Brwn(2017)
My favorite B.Cool-Aid project, this is easily one of Siifu’s best produced projects, the live instrumentation is incredible and complement’s Siifu’s rapping so well, it feels so lush and textured it makes for an interesting moment in Siifu’s discog that I love

#8 - head(2017)
This ep was a hint towards the sound siifu would be heading in with Ensley and it’s an amazing listen, the loops siifu choose here create such an amazing atmosphere, it almost feels like I’m listening to it through an elevator speaker and just being calmed by it

#7 - let go(2016)
Still riding the sound of space ghetto, Siifu offers 5 tracks which would’ve been some of the best on space ghetto, sad they didn’t make it on there but it’s still amazing as an ep and it stands as one of Siifu’s more interesting projects

#6 - im still.(2018)
This mostly just reads to me as some Ensley left overs, and y’all know how much I love Ensley so any thing from those recording sessions is going to have a stroke of genius and unmatchable vibes

#5 - KRYPTONYTE(2018)
This album is just bangers front to back, pulling from that classic Memphis sound this is such a fun listen, liv.e, siifu, bryon, and ben have such great chemistry and this an incredible ode to Memphis.

#4 - [email protected]:A decade’s letter to the galaxy
It blows my mind that this is from 2014, that amount of potential and creativity Siifu shows on here is shocking, there’s so many genres coming together and they all work so well, everything here is so chaotic yet so beautiful.

#3 - N*GRO(2020)
Siifu’s 2020 politically charged punk album, N*GRO. This is an undeniable masterpiece and a future classic. The blends of noise, punk and industrial on here is something I couldn’t see anybody else doing and the songwriting on here is so heavy and impactful

#2 - Space Ghetto(2016)
Probably THE most influential album for the sound of the underground today, it is incredible how ahead of the curb siifu was with this project, the lofi hip hop sound on here is still as fresh as ever and very abstract, yet another siifu masterpiece

#1 - Ensley(2018)
The 3rd best album of all time, Ensley is like embracing a warm hug. I’ve had many listens with this album where I’ve been stressed and Ensley has just melted that away. Unmatched vibes, Siifu really made a stroke of genius with this underground classic.
