Kelela’s ‘Raven’ is the best album of 2023 (so far).

Drake and 21 Savage’s collaborative album is just short of a misfire.

An immersive body of work that unequivocally rejects the sophomore slump.

Giveon's debut attempts to add nuance to the “toxic lover” trope he previously embodied, but lethargic pacing and drowsy melodies undermine those efforts.

Future’s commitment to self-caricature prevents the album from displaying any moments of accountability or genuine vulnerability — the moments that made past records quintessential.
