WHAT IT IS: New Jersey’s very own Danielle Balbuena, a.k.a. 070 Shake, is among the most unique in the contemporary rap scene. The Kanye protégé, who’s signed to G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam, made quite an impression on YE’s “Ghost Town,” propelling her career. Now, her synth-laden, alt-leaning debut album, Modus Vivendi—Latin for “two opposing parties coexist peacefully—is filled with 80’s inspiration and dreamy-pop sounds and shows exactly what the rapper/singer is made of.
