‘Pop Off!’ – Taylor Swift’s Discography

February 27, 2024
This week Kaufman welcomes guest Sarah Cochi to rank Taylor Swift's albums.
PinkPantheress newest album release, Heaven know, features an R&B, disco and pop sound with dreamy synths.

‘Heaven knows’ this album transcends TikTok virality

By Jess Williams, Staff Writer November 16, 2023
PinkPantheress used to crank out new songs nearly every day, releasing these bite-sized, hooky and minimal pop songs on TikTok to a small audience. It didn’t take long, however, for the ’90s drum and bass samples, dreamy synths and high breathy vocals to spread on the platform like wildfire. These songs stitched together sticky choruses, ear-catching production and virality in tiny packages, usually shorter than two minutes long.
Offset recently released a new album, Set it Off, featuring Travis Scott, Don Toliver, Future, Cardi B, Mango Foo, Latto, Young Nudy, and Chlöe.

‘SET IT OFF’ is a solo effort with Culture and closure

By Khari Bolden, Contributing Writer October 18, 2023
If this album falters anywhere though, it’s the features. Two of them are stellar, but those seem to be the exception and not the rule on “SET IT OFF.” Chlöe Bailey and Young Nudy provide solid enough verses on “PRINCESS CUT” and “DOPE BOY,” respectively. Future pulls out some pretty decent wordplay on “BROAD DAY” like, “All I got is shooters, no friends like VLONE” referring to the Friends Collection made by Vlone, a company created by rapper collective and past collaborator A$AP Mob.
