Easy Listening 4 Armageddon is the first studio album by American hip hop musician Mike Ladd. It was released on Scratchie Records in 1997.
Reception
Tony Green of JazzTimes gave the album a favorable review, saying: "Ignoring the all too common impulse to pile texture on top of texture, Ladd constructs 12 tracks that cajole as effectively as his richly imagistic poetry."[3] Dan LeRoy of AllMusic commented that "through a series of lo-fi beats and loops that make stunning use of a few choice samples, Ladd creates an eerie soundscape that perfectly matches his muttered musings."[1]
Greg Kot of Chicago Tribune called it "one of the most accomplished hip-hop debuts in recent years."[2]
