2024 has been quite the year to break out the new. Some music just came out and caught the world onto itself. From chart-topping anthems to tear-inducing ballads, music took over this year. Here’s the best according to critical rankings.
Charli XCX is reigning supreme with “Brat.”.
Charli XCX, with Brat, is a bold dance-centric album that has been generally enjoyed by the audience and critics. It charted in June and brought huge cultural debates, thus turning it into a global phenomenon in 2024.
Critics have been throwing accolades at the record, replete with daring lyrics and infectious beats, for being “pop music for the future.” Production is high-energy, wrapping introspective themes, and Brat captures chaos and vulnerability that feels both relatable and innovative.
Other notable releases include Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter.
B-Cowan her Cowboy Carter’s Americana with folksiness that it was a great collaboration for the greats like Dolly Parton and Post Malone. All in embracing rich cultural roots of America’s musical heritage and doing creative justice.
Fountains D.C.-Romance
The Dublin rockers Fontanes D.C. ventured into new sonic territory with their album Romance. They blend stadium-ready anthems and raw, punk-inspired energy to be a band that has come of age.
Billie Eilis – Hit Me Hard and Soft
Musically, this is one of Billie Eilis’s third album in emotions. The record feels complete in its entirety relating themes to heartbreak as well as growth as an individual. Thus, its similarity with some of the finest records from the former generation was destined.
Songs of A Lost World-The Cure
The Cure returned in blazes of glory with a record called Songs Of A Lost World, the group’s first record in more than a decade. And it was really personal, really introspective. Losing and healing were real motifs that were resonating perfectly with all their old fans.
Waxahachie- Tiger’s Blood
For example, the last Waxahachie album was very intimate to the struggles of anxiety and self-discovery. The country-rock and introspective lyrics were some of the best of the year.
Other Recommendations
GNX is an appreciation of Los Angeles hip-hop culture and the rapper’s lyrical ability, but Kendrick Lamar has much more than that.
