Steve Lacy, Gemini Rights | Album Review 💿

Steve Lacy delivers one of the very best albums of 2022 with his relatively short but potent sophomore album, Gemini Rights.

Oft-criticized, bigger-than-life, Grammy-winning pop star Lizzo delivers a consistent, sickening sophomore album with Special.

Conan Gray continues to expand and improve his artistry and craft, shining on his stellar sophomore album, Superache.

Sub Urban (Daniel Virgil Maisonneuve) does a fine job introducing himself to the world on his short but potent debut album, HIVE.

George James, guest contributor: German alt-rockers, Prior The End, rock up to the top table with their new album, ‘Cutting My Roots’.

19-year-old pop wunderkind Isaac Dunbar brings the heat on his fourth EP, Banish the Banshee.

Canadian Gen-Z pop singer/songwriter Tate McRae shows promise on her debut album, I used to think I could fly.

Florence + The Machine makes a superb return with their compelling, consistent, and well-rounded fifth studio album, Dance Fever.

Grammy-winner Harry Styles delivers a well-rounded third studio album in Harry’s House, successfully contrasting his previous two LPs.

Kendrick Lamar brings the heat on Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, an ambitious, complex, and ultimately, truly rewarding album.

Despite an exorbitant amount of hype behind him, Jack Harlow delivers a lukewarm effort (at best) on his sophomore LP, Come Home the Kids Miss You.
