such a well produced and intentional mixtape. it really feels as if SAILORR built upon the success and favourable reception of 'POOKIE'S REQUIEM', rather than making a project filled with its duplicates. a very strong and personalised release.

really fun and vibrant album. my first listen to a fcukers project and i'm a fan. would love to hear more!

a lovely follow-up to the good witch!! i really enjoyed this, it definitely lifted my spirits whilst being on a packed train to uni. not as strong as TGW for me, but a good album nonetheless.

this album is so so so beautifully produced and sequenced. each song feels so perfect, in isolation, and together as a collective piece. it's so 80s, chic, edgy, and fun. i deeply regret missing their set at TLDP's concert in October 2024, but I am so grateful that I now know them and their music.

beautiful, soulful, insightful. a lovely ep that highlights the joys of being, exisiting, spirituality, religion, and the values of life.

gorgeous body of work from amma. such rich production and orchestration, complimenting her vocals so well. witty yet retrospective, funny and simultaneously introspective. the keen family is a gift to this world.

DIVINE. Durand Bernarr has done it again. i love and appreciate everything durand bernarr does, and this album does not fall short of any of my expectations. gorgeous, rich, smooth, jazzy, soulful, and spectacular. definitely an artist that more people should be aware of. 10s.

so gorgeously sequenced and orchestrated. a whimsical, emotional, intriguing body of work with stellar vocals and powerful lyricism. one of my favourites of 2026.

divine. truly, absolutely, divine. one of the best releases in the 2020s, an excellent album. i struggle to put into words how much i ADORE this album. simz is a star, a visionary, an incredible rapper, and an authentic role model.

standouts - woman (ft. cleo sol) / gems (interlude; ft. emma corrin) / point and kill (ft. obonjayar) / miss understood / literally ALL of the emma corrin features

this album and simz deserves all the love and accolades; simz needs her flowers yesterday!

i wish, every day, that taylor stuck with this sound. folkore is one of the best releases of the decade, and i mourn its beauty and strengths and emotional power. i love this album and all it provided through the dread of the pandemic. one of my favourites of all time, such a beautifully organised and produced album.

will always appreciate and love a simz release. such a good ep that allows both little simz and the featuring artists to shine. really compliments the flow and strengths of lotus, despite the drastically different topics of focus.

pleasantly suprising! honestly a very strong album from harry styles. i thought the musical direction he took with this was actually quite interesting and fresh. definitely stronger than harry's house for me personally.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i love this!!! i really really see why people rave about this album so much; it's so bright and fun, yet emotionally poignant. maisie peters has a beautiful voice and her lyricism only compliments her production choices. one of my favourite listens so far in 2026, even if i'm 3 years late haha!

so so so so much fun!! one of my favourite aspects of the revitalisation of the remix album is how unique it makes all the songs. literally brings a new life to all the amazing music we have already. standouts were the pinkpatheress remix and the saturn's return remix - incredible. jaw-dropping. 10s.

such a cohesive and excellent body of work. one of the best of the 2010s. should be valued for its greatness so much more. all songs are gorgeous and powerful, but 'don't you wait' still remains my favourite, after many listens. only 10s.

sorry, what. this album is insane. banger after banger after banger. i feel so sad that i found slayyyter so late, but i'm happy to see that she is getting her overdue flowers sooner rather than later. and her massive increase in visibility has enabled me to be blessed by the iconicity of her work. will be cranking it and dancing for the forseeable future.

such a calming, stunning project. so versatile and unique and bold and loving and wistful. my favourite laufey project to this day.

One of my favourite PinkPatheress projects. I love the production so so much; it feels both minimalistic and so intriguing. A great introduction to her discography, and a lovely EP, complimented by her later works (Heaven Knows especially).

Absolutely spectacular. This album either left me speechless, joyous, or on the verge of tears. This juggernaut complements M21CB so well and will stand as one of the best releases of 2026. What an incredible way to end March. 10s across the board; Raye is a superstar.

This album is so packed with bangers and I love everything about it. I love Hayley Williams and she shines so much on this. One of the strongest releases in 2023.

An incredible debut doing the work in revitalising the popularity of the Black R&B girl group. Beautiful. One of my favourites of 2024.

One of my favourite albums of ALL TIME. Solange is truly a gift to our world. Jerrod is one of my most played songs ever. This project is purely perfection and I will recommend - without a doubt - to anyone I meet. Ever. No notes.

So calm and wistful. I love this album as it highlights the joys and beauty of listening to a project in full. One of my highlights of 2025. <3

Beautiful and intricate. Very excited to watch their recent Tiny Desk when I get the chance; such a gorgeous body of work and unique sound.

Literally magical. I love this album and I cannot wait to see the trajectory of Chappell Roan with her sophomore project; I will be seated.

So overwhelmingly excellent. One of my favourite aspects of this album is the structure and flow of the track listing. This album emphasises the strengths and joys of listening to an album in full, in one sitting. I love this so so much and will return to this so much. 10s indeed!

One of my favourite releases of 2025. Such a cohesive project that brings out the best of ALL the band members, it's both joyous and heartbreaking. Love love love!

Wonderful, whimsical, wistful. Incredible debut. Very very big fan of this work and my introduction to hemlocke springs with this album. ❤️❤️

Queen behaviour!! Still cannot get over ‘Disease’ and ‘Zombieboy’. This stands out very well in Gaga’s discography. So so strong, amazing start to 2025.

A scathing yet simultaneously majestic body of work, blending so many complimentary and distinct genres together. Little Simz is one of the best to do it; I return to this often.

Such an amazing follow up to TLIIASAW. I love and appreciate all of Mitski’s music and this stands out very well in her discography. 10s only.

First ever introduction to Geese - the reviews are very accurate. This album is literally insane, in a very good way. It’s so chaotic yet musically cohesive, brash yet holding such strong socio-political relevance. Would be very happy to do a deep dive into Geese’s wider work.

I love this! Cannot say how well it compliments the film (2026) as I have not (and will not) watch. However, very very much so a fan of the album in of itself. Excellent film score that makes me excited to hear forthcoming scores of Charli xcx.

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.

the more i listen to this album, via full listen-throughs and clips of the ego death tour, the more i fall in love w/ hayley williams. such a POWERHOUSE vocalist and cutting lyricist that knows how to write and perform ballads, belters, and gorgeous songs effectively. such a wonderful album.

A gorgeous insane follow up to PtE. Very upset I missed their show in December in Brixton - would kill to hear ‘Second Best’ live 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 album. 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 Roberts 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.

Listened to ‘Intro’ on Vol 1, knew this whole body of work (Vols 1/2/3) would be incredible. Standout tracks - Afternoon in Heaven (1); Sky2Fall (2); El Dorado (1); Tonguetwister (3); Wandering Eyes (3: incredible live!!!); and Top Dog (3).

An insane selection of incredible songs, tied together both concisely and creatively. 10/10

incredible. sickening. majestic. spectacular. insane. mitski does it again!
