Hiding Places is a collaborative studio album by Brooklyn rapper Billy Woods and Los Angeles record producer Kenny Segal.[1] It was released by Backwoodz Studioz on March 29, 2019.[2] It features guest appearances from Mothermary, Elucid, and Self Jupiter.[3] The album cover is a photograph of the William Livingstone House in Detroit.
Marcus J. Moore of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.7 out of 10, writing: "In a way, Hiding Places plays like a complement to early-00s underground New York rap, and sits alongside early Definitive Jux records."[6] He added: "There's an edginess to the record, similar to Cannibal Ox's The Cold Vein, a feeling that the rapper will either self-destruct or nuke everything in his wake."[6] Tom Breihan of Stereogum wrote: "The album works as a sweaty, jangled rumination on stress and fear and hopelessness and grim acceptance."[7] Paul Thompson of The Fader called it "[Billy Woods'] leanest and his best [record]".[5]
