INCREDIBLE. SHOWSTOPPING. Doechii is here to stay, and her place in the rap and mainstream spheres of music is so so so deserved. This mix tap is wonderful, and a well deserved Grammy winner. Very excited to see what will come of Doechii in her debut album.
A magnificent start to the release of the ‘Nice Day’ singles. I love these songs equally so so much - they showcase the excellence of Mica’s vocals, both of their production skills, and the wonders of their writing abilities. These are two songs that summarise what I adore about Mag Bay so much. 10/10.
A gorgeous insane follow up to PtE. Very upset I missed their show in December in Brixton - would kill to see Second Best love again. Love love love TLDP. xx
Beautiful. Incredible. 10 10 10s across the board indeed! I love this album deep. Its artistry and constant aim to allude and homage the greats of house, ballroom culture, and the Black / Latino LGBTQ community is undeniably important and valuable in this day and age. Beyoncé was robbed of the 2023 AOTY. End of discussion.
One of the most deserved AOTYs in recent years. A valuable and intricate ode to the Black history inherent to country, born from the significance of 21st century racism within the country sphere itself. CC operates as a detailed navigation of Black music, utilising a range of Black genres to broaden and deepen the important thesis outlined by this beautiful albums. 10s for the queen.
Probably my favourite Mag Bay song of all time. Strong in both lyrics and production. So beautiful and intricate, I love so much about this song and its place in the deluxe of MW.
Really fun, unique, rich synth-pop album, exploring so many themes. Love the modulations in Truly Dreams, the overall production of Galina, and the literal weirdness of Weird World. Very excited to hear these songs live.
A great debut from a fantastic up and coming rock / alternative female / non binary band. Love how cohesive and creative this album is - the vocals of Abigail are incredible and hard-hitting, and the guitar skills of Emily Roberts really stand out overall, but my favourite Robert’s moment is the instrumental break of ‘Portrait of a Deal Girl’; this song is arguably one of their best in their discography, even post-‘From the Pyre’. I love TLDP!! ❤️
An ear-worm album, both beautiful to listen to in-full and to individual songs. Flow is incredible, yet each song stands out so so well. A true 10/10 which stands so beautifully in Polachek’s discography.
