The Cudi payola, we LOVE to see it. He really dropped a classic 

 

Faith and Experience in the songs list :smitten:

Posted

Is It True + Need Your Love :worship:

Posted

Love the Faith Inclusion. Top 5 on the album :clap3: 

Posted

nnn Cudi is on my list of people to listen to but I'm not touching new albums until I'm done with my Best Of.

 

Tame Impala|Is It True - PERFECT PICK
Tennis|Need Your Love - PERFECT PICK
The Weeknd|Faith - So good, the lyrical content too whew

Thundercat|Black Qualls (feat. Steve Lacy, Steve Arrington, and Childish Gambino) - Such an interesting pick! I was really expecting this to be on like every Year End list but critics seems to have forgotten about it or only give the album props. It's a great song.
Victoria Monet, Khalid & SG Lewis|Experience - Khalid finally showing some talent.
Yves Tumor|Gospel For a New Century - YAS the 1-2 punch of this and Medicine Burn are amazing.

experience, what a disco bop

and gospel, what a nice jock jam lmao.

 

listening to the vanjess song cuz they've been on my radar.  its nice and sexy.  i like the sample they used. 

Posted

Experience and Need Your Love are my favorites  Is It True is probably my fourth or third track from Tame Impala.

Posted

Honorable Mentions:

These are all albums that were either:

1) Good/emjoyable but not as good as the other albums in my main list

2) Albums that I only listened to once or twice but really enjoyed (most of the albums fall under this category)

3) Were just alright albums but had something to offer

Understandable. I hope you end up liking it! She Knows This is a bop so give that a shot.

It was either Black Qualls or Dragonball Durag and I was this close to choosing DD :dies:  And yeah that sucks to see but at least the album as a whole has been getting love.

Poor Khalid, I think if he sticks with Disclosure he can make good music (Talk is pretty solid :cm:)

YESSS! You should get into their discography if you haven't already. I actually quite enjoyed their last album more than their most recent.

Glad you liked the VanJess song! They dropped a few more singles this year but Slow Down was my fave. Their debut is excellent though :jonny4: You should get on that when you have the chance.

Lianne La Havas|Lianne La Havas

If I had listened to this album before, I'd have placed it on my lists for sure. Reminds me of Hiatus Kaiyote a bit.

Posted

Positions gorgeist :clap3:Sad its an HM but glad you at least enjoyed it

 

I WILL check out Lianne, i've been seeing her album a lot lately and I think it would be up my alley.  Definitely worth a try.

Teyana had some great tracks, have not been motivated to listen to the whole thing but one day...

 

 

Posted

Sufjan, Caribou, Jhene, US Girls, Perfume Genius were all robbed of a top10 placement. STOP THE COUNT.

Posted

That Ariana album is right we’re it belongs. Enjoyable is a stretch too :giraffe:

Posted

Ooh yeah a lot of these HMs I either thought were fine or really liked, so it's nice to see them here. I don't think I've seen ANYONE on here mention that dvsn album nnn. I thought it was..... alright.

 

(oh also you are right that Disclosure do bring out the best in Khalid and that Talk is his best song for sure)

Positions just barely misses my top 25 albums unfortunately. Chilombo was an album that I played only a few times but I liked what I heard for the most part.

Lianne didn't do it for me this time :katie: I instantly loved Blood but maybe I need to go back to her s/t.

Ariana would've made a top 50 for sure and I remember liking Kiana and Empress on my first listens!

Yeah Lianned just didn't seem to do it for me this go around but her album has been getting a lot of love so don't let me deter you from checking it out! Honestly same about Teyana nn. No album needs to be 22 tracks long unless there's A LOT of interludes or smth but I did enjoy it on my first listen.

They probably would've snatched if I listened to them more :dies:  (at least US Girls and Caribou for sure; I only semi-liked Sufjan and didn't much care for PG on my first listen).

It's sad but dvsn have just been on a gradual decline since their debut :'( I have that Future song on repeat though!

Hopefully whatever Khalid is planning for K3 is electronic heavy!
