 Album Length - 20 Minutes


Imagine mixing Nas, Wu-tang Clan and MF Doom together and you'd get Sci-Fi The Mastermind. Old school boom bap beats and conscious lyrics makes Armageddon an album that will always be in your rotation. The title track features some of the best spitting I've seen especially for a underground artist.

A relatively short album yes however every song is just old school hip-hop at its best and I believe its a breath of fresh air for the rap community. With songs like Revolution of Mass Destruction and The Mightiest Magician this album will feed all of your rap cravings with hard hitting lyrics, amazing samples and Mobb Deep type beats. 

This album has been one of my most listened to recently especially for when your trying to chill with the vibey beats of Greetings Planet Earth or if your trying to get hyped up with the title track Armageddon. Sci-Fi The Mastermind is definitely and artist to keep your eye on as I believe he's going to go far in the rap game. This is up there with my favourite rap albums and for that it gets a rating of 8 / 10.

If you're into this album Sci-Fi has just released a new album called Superhuman Crystallized Intergalactically-Formed Intelligence which I highly recommended you all go listen to but if I had to recommend a album from a different artists I would recommend you listen to Illmatic - Nas or Enter The Wu Tang - Wu Tang Clan.

About The Artist

Sci-Fi The Mastermind is an emerging hip-hop and rap artist known for creating immersive, dystopian soundscapes in his music. He released the album Superhuman Crystallized Intergalactically-Formed Intelligence in September 2025, a 14-track project showcasing his use of lo-fi textures, heavy atmospheric drums, and complex, coded lyricism. Tracks like “Armageddon,” “The Mightiest Magician,” and “Far From Human” highlight his calm yet razor-sharp delivery and thought-provoking themes. Sci-Fi stands out for his unified artistic aesthetic—minimalist visuals featuring red, black, and angular designs—that complement his sound and world-building approach. Rather than following mainstream trends, he focuses on creating music with depth, moral weight, and futuristic imagination, making him a distinctive and innovative voice in the contemporary underground and experimental hip-hop scene.

  What's Spinning This Week Track list 1. "Pigs on the Wing 1" (1:24) 2. "Dogs" (17:04) 3. "Pigs (Three Different Ones)" (11:25) 4. "Sheep" (10:18) 5. "Pigs on the Wing 2" (1:26) Released - 23rd Jan 1977 Album Length - 41 Minutes Inspired by George Orwell's "Animal Farm" this somewhat ignored Pink Floyd album preaches a message about injustice and greed. With the soft acoustics from Roger Waters in " Pigs on the wing" and in my opinion Gilmour's greatest guitar solos in " Dogs " this album is a must listen. 'Animals' is a personal favourite of mine especially because of its standout track " Dogs " there are few Pink Floyd songs which rival it. Political lyrics and mesmerising solos are what makes this album so unique and a must have for any vinyl collector. This progressive rock masterpiece gets a rating of    9 / 10 . Following their releases of "The Dark Side Of The Moon...

The Little Things Give You Away (6:23) Released - 14th May 2007 Album Length - 43 Minutes If you're looking a heavy hitting album to headbang to look no further than Minutes To Midnight by none other than Linkin Park. Recommended by my good friend Eimantas this album packs a punch while also pulling on the heartstrings. Falling into the genre of Nu-Metal/Alternative Rock which was pioneered by the likes of Linkin Park, Korn and System Of A Down I feel this is an album that many people can enjoy. With the heavy screams of Chester Bennington and the slick rap vocals of Mike Shinoda you definitely want to listen to this one.  With stand out tracks such as Bleed It Out and Gi...
