GNX Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2024 Kendrick Lamar If there were any remaining doubts as to hip-hop’s MVP, consider the decision stamped: Kendrick Lamar officially won 2024. There were whispers that Compton’s finest was working on an album in the wake of his feud with Drake, a once-in-a-generation beef that kept jaws dropped for months. (Perhaps you’ve heard of a little song called “Not Like Us,” an immediate entry into the canon of all-time great diss tracks.) After a sold-out celebration at the Kia Forum, an armful of Grammy nods and streaming records, and the headlining slot at next year’s Super Bowl, Lamar ties up his biggest year yet with a bow with his sixth album,   GNX , the most legitimately surprising surprise drop since   BEYONCÉ   in 2013. Named for his beloved classic Buick,   GNX   finds Kendrick wielding a hatchet he’s by no means ready to bury, still channeling this summer’s cranked-to-11 energy. On “wacced out murals,” he’s riding around listening to...

A Minute... - EP

A Minute... - EP Album ∙ Singer/Songwriter ∙ 2024 Myles Smith The story has become somewhat familiar by now. A promising young singer-songwriter uploads a handful of covers online, unexpectedly goes viral, amasses a community of fans (among them A-list names) and, eventually, earns a major-label deal. But the fact that Myles Smith’s story has followed a certain trajectory doesn’t make it any less remarkable: In only four short years, the Luton singer-songwriter has gone from hopefully uploading covers to TikTok to becoming a global breakout star thanks, in particular, to his inescapable 2024 track “Stargazing.” “I always believed in the feeling of the track and I always knew there was something special in it, but I think the extent it’s taken off, I definitely couldn’t have predicted,” Smith told Apple Music following its release. “To see the world having a similar, visceral reaction was quite surreal.” The deeply romantic “Stargazing” features up top on   A Minute… , the follow-up...

Richey Rich

Richey Rich Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2024 Real Boston Richey Few things seem to have changed for Real Boston Richey in the year since his Freebandz debut,   Welcome to Bubba Land . The themes on   Richey Rich   will be gratifyingly familiar to his fanbase, a listenership that has only grown off the strength of the raspy Florida trapper’s hit single “Help Me.” Even without a feature from his ATL benefactor, that coveted Future cosign continues to elevate him on his second proper album. Then again, Richey has hardly needed anyone’s help to make a lasting impression, his gift for filtering evocative verses through his Southern drawl reliably present throughout these two dozen tracks. There’s undeniable pain in his bars on “Belt” and a certain fear and loathing surrounding “Story,” both clear examples of his abilities. He flirts with the prospect of mass appeal on “Go Richey,” but he’s far more comfortable going hard on cuts like “Cup Spill” and “No Peace.” While this is overwhe...

True Colors Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2024 La Même Gang While Afropop has undoubtedly risen to a place of prominence globally, some of the most important stylistic advancements in the genre can be traced to the legacy of the freewheeling alté culture that sprung out of West African cities like Lagos and Accra near the end of the 2010s. In Accra particularly, the music collective La Même Gang unlocked a portal to a new era of expression that reverberated across their country and sealed their reputation as one of the most innovative acts operating across West Africa. Experimenting with trap, hiplife, and EDM, the six-member group has thrilled, animated, and inspired in equal fashion. As with most collectives of their size, the years since their debut album, 2017’s   La Même Tape , and its quick-fire follow-up   La Même Tape: Linksters , have seen them embark on a variety of creative endeavors, with little time for all members of the gang to dial in for music-making except for sporad...

Cosa Nuestra

Cosa Nuestra Album ∙ Urbano latino ∙ 2024 Rauw Alejandro Operating at an exceptionally high level in the past few years made Rauw Alejandro a bona fide Latin music superstar. His proverbial star shone brightly on 2023’s   SATURNO   and the corresponding   PLAYA SATURNO , each showing how innovative the one-time R&B reggaetonero had become. Given the retro-futurist musical vision executed on that pair of projects, his decision to open his subsequent album   Cosa Nuestra   with the Afro-Cuban song stylings of its title track feels all the more bold in intention. Indeed, just as he’s explored and expanded upon sounds beyond the reggaetón and trap that earned him early acclaim, he appears eager to broaden and mature further at this notable stage in his career. Those concerned that   Cosa Nuestra   would prove a strictly old-school affair have no need to worry. Apart from a fairly faithful rendition of salsa romántica staple “Tú Con Él”—its lyrical them...
