Albums

The K-pop group deliver relentless fireworks moments. But due to their highly polished brand, their first studio album often feels impersonal.

How do you top the pop album of 2020? By releasing an 18-track all-star remix collab only five months later. Dua Lipa, executive producer The Blessed Madonna and some of those special guests lift the lid and drop the needle on the party set we all need right now.

With a gold record for her monstrously streamed track Bitch from Da Souf, a cameo in the biggest music video of the year and co-signs aplenty, the 21-year-old rapper is poised for big things.

The singer-songwriter weathered a break-up, a handful of controversies and a revelatory diagnosis – and it’s all there on her years-in-the-making debut album.

The artist’s new album Apollo puts a fresh spin on the Afrobeats sound and takes on matters of the heart.

The rapper and director shot to fame thanks to his bright aesthetic and carefree, goofball humour, but new album Limbo takes on darker and deeper themes. He talks to The Face about his immigrant parents, the case for police abolition and finally convincing Summer Walker to collaborate.
