10. Visions of Bodies Being Burned - clipping.

(October 23, 2020)

 

Quote

I had never heard of clipping.'s music before but I fell in love with this album the first time I heard it. It is spooky, it is creative, it is cinematic. This album is easily some of the most experimental, hard hitting, detailed and straight up fun hip hop albums i have listened to in quite some time. Also they've completely nailed the Horrocore sound without making it cheesy or overbearing.

09. Fetch the Bolt Cutters - Fiona Apple

Quote

There's nothing to be said or explained about this album. What makes Fetch the Bolt Cutters stand out to me is that she continues to evolve as an artist. The songwriting here is some of the best in her career. She still has her trademark hilarious and angry wit but she also has newly insane percussion heavy production. It's just fantastic.

08. Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez - Gorillaz

(October 23, 2020)

 

Quote

"Song Machine" doesn't feel like a glorified compilation album simple labeled a "studio album", it feels indubitably like an album that was simply just teased to us bit by bit over the course of the year.

 

This year has been a renaissance of sorts for the creativity, consistence and experimentation that made Gorillaz such a magical "band" in their prime. Every single that the band has released this year has left me impressed. I think this is up there with their best albums, and certainly one of the most fun and colourful projects released this year.

This album is living, breathing and moving. I really have nothing negative to say about this album but all i can say is that this is definitely the one that's the most reverent to disco's roots.

 

The songs are dense and impenetrable and you can almost treat this album as a single, hour long, epic dance track and one that you’ll want to spin several times I can't help but feel this album came out at the wrong time.

from the album The ReVe Festival: Finale

This album is an Eargasm. The production throughout the whole record is just perfect, the instrumentation is always spot on. Nothing much else to say, this album is sensual, it's enchanting, it's beautiful.

 

Top 3: Gospel for a New Century, Strawberry Privilege & Kerosene!

This is the best Miley Cyrus's song I've ever heard in YEARS. If she could have made music like this the entire time, why didn't she?

 

Also I've seen people online who didn't like her music shocked when they heard this song is actually from Miley. Maybe she really proves this people wrong, huh?

I prefer Mothers Daughter tbh :fan:

Midnight Sky. It really is one of her best. Fantastic lead material.

05. After Hours - The Weeknd

 

00602508883408-cover-zoom.jpg

 

from the album After Hours

(February 19, 2020)

 

Quote

This is the best The Weeknd song in a long time and even one of the best songs of the past few years (Yes that include Blinding Lights).

 

The best thing about the 6 minutes long track is that it takes its time building up and gets wavier and wilder as it expands. It also has an interesting thing going where it is a depressing and moody song while also being upbeat and banging. The lack of structure is a good thing too, makes the song feel unpredictable and adds to the replay.

 

2020 is his year and F*CK the Grammys.

04. Say Something - Kylie Minogue

from the album Disco

(July 23, 2020)

 

Quote

This is a classic Kylie for sure. I love everything about this song. The infectious synth beats, Kylie's soothing vocals and the way she delivers "woah woah woah's" In the pre-chorus is *chef kiss* perfection. This is clearly representing a Disco album and shows that Kylie can grow old gracefully while still bringing people to the dancefloor.

03. Pig Feet (feat. Kamasi Washington, G Perico & Daylyt) - Terrace Martin & Denzel Curry

(June 1, 2020)

 

Quote

This is such a beautiful protest song and it will be become a part of history of protest songs that have made a huge impact in the world for over 50+ years. Everyone in this song nailed their part, especially for Denzel and Daylyt becuase I have never heard any song that sounds this angry and make me emotional at the the same time. The solo jazz part is incredible and it feels like i'm reading Junji Ito's comic book for a hot minute.

05. After Hours - The Weeknd

 

00602508883408-cover-zoom.jpg

 

(March 20, 2020)

 

Quote

I've never been a huge The Weeknd fan. Outside of his singles from previous albums, He's not an artist that has spark my interest to listen to full body of work. But oh boy i did full 180 after listening to this album.

 

The production on this album is top notch, some of the best i've heard for 2020. The songwriting is great and Abel's voice is as good as ever, sounding ethereal and beautiful behind the waves and waves of amazing synth work found on this album. The first part of the album loses itself in its' moodiness and atmosphere. and then the trap elements start to creep their way in, and the album finishes on a bit more concrete ground with a heavy 80's synth-pop flavor.

 

Yeah like i said before, F*CK Grammys!

This project is the first time i've listen to Tkay Maidza, and og my god it's really good. it's so diverse and progressive pop rap. The switches between soft, breezy songs and her ability to switch sounds and moods seamlessly is amazing. The production is so incredibly lush and The blends between funk and soul are done so tastefully. It's just so f*cking good yall. I can't get enough of it, i want more.

03. RTJ4 - Run the Jewels

(June 3, 2020)

 

Quote

Run The Jewels came back with their fourth installment "RTJ4" and the album lenght of 39 minutes long, marking it as their shortest full length project since the group's debut. The album delivers a whole lot of content in that short time period. Production is incredible and It is incredibly rare to see an artist that is able to combine humor, serious social commentary, and pleasing audio so seamlessly in one, but they have found a way to do it for four records in a row now.

I was kinda skeptical about the Miley song even though ATRL was stanning hard for it. Gave it a listen sometime ago and I'm impressed! Haven't listened to the album as a whole but hopefully MS is a good sign!

Didn't know Tyler dropped a loosie :eek: I'll make sure to check it out.

After Hours (song) really feels so short even though it's like 6 minutes long. Truly a cinematic masterpiece :smitten:

 

Nice to see someone else who hasn't given up on Gorillaz lol. I thought Song Machine was a good album with tons of great songs in it.

Fiona, Roisin, Yves, Abel :clap3: Don't much care for RTJ much.

Tkay sounds interesting :eek: I just saved that album, you recommend any of her other albums?

 

Also I never knew that Daveed Diggs (:heart:) was in clipping. Kinda makes me want to listen to them even more :keir:
