With the release of her third studio album, Singular Act I, Sabrina Carpenter proved that she was fully moving away from the “Disney Channel princess” sound that defined her first two albums, and into a much more mature, sophisticated, and lyrically advanced type of music. This album continued to prove that she is capable of making very vulnerable and captivating music, and I’m very excited to see where her next album goes.

Ariana Grande: Sweetener (2018) Songs Ranked
Sweetener is without a doubt Ariana Grande’s most and least popular album. At the time that it came out, reception was very mixed, with some people claiming it was a fresh, emotional piece of work and some claiming it was a disjointed, weird project. Nowadays, I think people are starting to appreciate this album for what it is, which makes me happy because I do in fact love Sweetener. It’s either my favorite or second favorite of her albums. I love it’s emotional vulnerability (which was lacking on her previous albums) and unique vocal/production style, and the album’s message (which we’ll get into later) is one that really resonates with me.
Michael Jackson: Thriller (1982) Songs Ranked
I don’t even know what I can say about this album that hasn’t already been said. It’s just an iconic piece of work. I don’t even think it needs an introduction but I’ll try my best. Michael Jackson’s Thriller ushered in the new sound of 80s R&B/pop with it’s glossy, slick, stellar production. I honestly think the production is my favorite thing about this album. Even if there were no vocals and the entire album was just instrumentals I would still be down to listen to this album (however I’m glad that’s not the case because, even though it surely doesn’t need to be said, Michael is an outstanding vocalist who adds so much personality and flair to everything he sings).
5 Seconds of Summer: Youngblood (2018) Songs Ranked
After taking a three-year break from creating music, 5 Seconds of Summer came back in 2018 with a bang, crafting an album that was more or less a complete departure from the sound of their earlier music. With Youngblood they ditched angsty-teenage anthems for pop-rock bangers, and I have to say, I think they created an absolutely incredible body of work. Youngblood is actually my favorite album of theirs by far, and it’s one of very few albums where I can actually say that every song is a masterpiece in it’s own right, and there isn’t one truly skip-worthy track.
Taylor Swift: Folklore (2020) Songs Ranked
Although it was entirely unexpected, I’m very happy to be reviewing a new Taylor Swift album. I wasn’t expecting to be able to do that for at least another year, but here we are and I’m so happy. This is definitely my favorite project of Taylor’s that she’s released in a while, and I love the storytelling and sonic direction she went in for this record.
