Florence Welch truly opens up on her latest album “High As Hope”. It’s subtle and slow burning without losing any of the grand & glorious production. This is definitely one of her strongest efforts yet!
She may only be 21 years of age, but Jorja Smith sounds just as mature and experienced as her peers on her debut album “Lost & Found”. She’s gained plenty of experience collaborating with artists such as Drake, Stormzy & Kali Uchis.
Scottish synth-pop trio come through with even more luscious & vibrant songwriting on their third studio album. The albums lead single “Get Out” is surely one of the pop anthems of the year!
Janelle Monáe has been turning heads for a while now with her creative style of R&B and her eccentric image. Her third album is a highly conceptual exploration of what it means to be a woman in 2018. The album has a late Prince feel to it… who is rumoured to have contributed to the single “Make Me Feel”.
Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd has returned to his dark & atmospheric sound that impressed so many early on in his career for “My Dear Melancholy”. The first track and single “Call Out My Name” is surely one of his best yet.
Blackpool’s Rae Morris shines on her second album “Someone Out There”. She channels Björk at times whilst retaining the pop accessibility that will appeal to fans of Haim & Jessie Ware.
