| 15 |  | Lewis Del Mar
AUGUST
3.95/5
beachy, dreamy, alt-rock/electropop release that is v underrated |
| 14 |  | Lil Darkie
Yin
3.98/5
(3/3) so yeah anyways most ppl of race and color don't care (seen with a mass trend of posi reaction videos to his music and videos) and the visual aspect of this persona is one of the most appealing/entertaining....his music videos are insane. v dedicated to anime and always including this dark figure with a red stripe on his head...a nod to his hindu upbringing. read more up on this guy it'll def make you think...or feel free to get offended (; |
| 13 |  | Mac Miller
Circles
3.99/5
RIP but holy fuck is this indie rock inspired rap record incredibly powerful upon lots of reflection... |
| 12 |  | The Strokes
The New Abnormal
4.00/5
return to form [2] love the songwriting on here each track seems to offer something new with repeated listens, jammy alt rock u know how they sound |
| 11 |  | Lil Darkie
This Does Not Exist
4.02/5
(2/3) so yeah as I was saying this guy technically is half-indian and half-white and as you can hear throughout his albums is using the N-word p frequently as well as f,c,s, and other slurs (jew, arab just google him I'm done explaining this part) due to his belief that "race is fake" and his own upbringing of being called a "sand n-word" consistently. while his fans are supporting him and his positive outlook on music ofc there's a "cancel culture" getting a bit upset at him. however, lil darkie is not a person, it's an animated cartoon character.... |
| 10 |  | Pinegrove
Marigold
4.04/5
fresh new bubbling landscapes of midwestern corn fields flowing in the summer breeze and it's ENDLESS |
| 9 |  | Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats
Unlocked
4.08/5
best visual release ep combo thing idk it had a ton of effort it should count as a full project |
| 8 |  | Glass Animals
Dreamland
4.11/5
overhyped maybe but after careful review definitely misunderstood and overhated on here...dreamy nostalgic pop that is incredibly personal and soft-spoken |
| 7 |  | Car Seat Headrest
Making a Door Less Open
4.14/5
will toledo's personality really shines through on this slightly electropop tangled release, some incredibly well put together tracks here |
| 6 |  | R.A.P. Ferreira

| 4 |  | Black Foxxes
Black Foxxes
4.29/5
holy shit this came out of nowhere but some of the most interesting, brooding, explosive, pensive and exciting emo releases I have heard this year it just took me until December to find it |
| 3 |  | Kid Cudi
Man on the Moon III: The Chosen
4.41/5
return to form, even moreso than Kids See Ghosts...stoner rap for millennials mixed with trap Travis $cott soundscapes for the younger generations |
| 2 |  | Lil Darkie
SWAMP
4.69/5
ok so lil darkie is a rapper that is basically the south park of the hip hop realm in terms of making fun of anybody and everything with extreme realism. combining any and every genre as well (hyperpop, industrial metal, punk rock, country???, indie pop etc.) with an insane knack for neverending flows...this guy is talented and it shows across his THREE full length albums (1/3) |
| 1 |  | Tame Impala
The Slow Rush
4.72/5
lush, beautifully entrancing indie psych pop for your psychedelic SOUL, music so positive and invitingly produced let it warm u up |
