Geese proved once again, Rock is not dead, and it has returned with jazzy, funky, sloppy, abrasive swagger.
Chronixx collaborated with producer Inflo, of Sault fame, to give us a modern reggae classic.
Clipse and Pharrell teamed up for a hip-hop masterpiece, enlisting the help of John Legend, Stevie Wonder, Tyler, the Creator, Kendrick, and Nas. This album was worth the wait.
Say She She didn’t miss a beat, delivering more of their signature “discodelic soul”, complete with toe-tapping rhythms and earworm hooks.
Another great year of music with superstars and up-and-comers both delivering killer albums.
