The grittiest, most abrasive release in Kanye's career. While the ten-track runtime yields Kanye's most concise curation yet, certain muddy songs block the project from being anything greater.

In light of the current state of Epstein-related affairs, Bon Appetit may be on-theme for Katy Perry's image, but it is far too indicative of human trafficking and elites remaining above the rule of law. A hard watch.

Nigro hands Olivia Rodrigo a track more suited for Chappell Roan, and it isn't well-hidden. Olivia's pen is still shaky on these angsty anthems, but there is clearly potential to improve.

Olivia's not hiding her insecurities behind the pen this time, and neither is her ambition hiding around the corner. A pop ballad currently the longest song of her career, "the cure" is a continuation of GUTS rock and the start of string arrangements in her discography. A promising single ahead of her next album.
