90 - An incredibly timely album from Vince Staples. His first independent release is excellent. There is a distinct punk adjacent sound to this album, but never fully leans into it either musically or energy wise in the vocal performance. But the message is as strong as ever and I appreciate the bluntness in his delivery of the angst of black America today.
90 - The hype for this album was well deserved. I loved all the beats and production on the record and some of the ways he laid bare his personal story and upbringing were breathtaking.
88.333 - An incredible album from this burgeoning pop star. I loved WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! as soon as I heard it last year and was quite happy that this album delivered on the hype I had for it. It's not some clean cut made for radio album, but that's part of what makes it special.
84.285 - What a strong debut from the former Black Midi band member Cameron Picton. The production was flawless and the album gave a lot of unique and captivating experiences throughout.
83.75 - I was surprised at the more overt bent they took with some of their religious imagery, but it was still perfectly Mumford & Sons which will always hit well for me
82.727 - I was excited for this one and it delivered. It's hampered a bit by it's length, but there are some amazing songs buried in that 78 minute run time.
81.19 - Another great album from Ghais Guevara. He is just pumping out quality albums left and right, this time giving sharp social and political commentary in the form of a concept album.

80 - This was a great electronic album. I definitely need to sit with it more to really dive into its intricacies, but it was still enjoyable right off the bat.
80 - Not his strongest album by any means, but damn does he know how to spin a tune.
78 - This mans name has popped up multiple times for me in the past month and inspired me to take a look at his most recent music he's released. This solo piano album has some great performances on it and definitely has songs I'll be returning to in the future.
