Timez Are Weird These Days by Theophilus London
Timez Are Weird These Days is an album by Theophilus London, released in 2011. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “I Stand Alone”, on 1 list with a best position of #95.
Timez Are Weird These Days, Theophilus London's debut album, came out on Reprise on July 19, 2011, and it plays like the work of a rapper who'd rather be a pop star with a deep record collection. The producer list is a grab bag, Ariel Rechtshaid, Dave Sitek, John Hill and Joakim Åhlund, and London slides between rapping and singing across the lot. Holly Miranda and Sara Quin drop in as guests, and the sleeve tips its hat to Leon Ware's self-titled 1982 album, a clue to the smooth, retro-soul streak running underneath.
Reviews came in mostly warm rather than rapturous, adding up to a 61 on Metacritic, and the record got as high as number 21 on the Top Rap Albums chart and 30 on the R&B/Hip-Hop list.
