Back catalogue:

Review: Lady Gaga's latest album is as bold, chaotic and emotionally charged as you would expect of the singular artist as she returns to her pop roots. Blending electro-grunge with theatrical flair, Gaga embraces fame and identity across 14 tracks that span snarling anthems like 'Perfect Celebrity' to raw love songs like 'Blade of Grass.' Along the way are nods to Bowie, Nine Inch Nails and disco, which all bring many layers of intrigue next to the vulnerability and bombast of the vocals. To that point, Gaga's voice shapeshifts from snarling to purring to belting as she examines fame's toll and personal transformation. Though maximalist to the core, MAYHEM never loses its heart and is messy, loud, and thrilling proof Gaga is still defining pop on her own terms.

Review: Given her astronomical global profile, it's hard to believe that Lady Gaga only released her debut album 15 years ago. The Fame is getting a special anniversary reissue to mark the occasion and was worked on with different producers, primarily RedOne, Martin Kierszenbaum, and Rob Fusari. It served to introduce her big mix of pop, rock and dance and as well las being classed as one of the strongest ever debut albums has also has won multiple awards since its release including a total of five Grammy Awards nominations and Best Electronic/Dance Album and Best Dance Recording for its single 'Poker Face', which remains one of Gaga's best known works.

Review: Accomplished US star Lil Baby celebrates the five year anniversary of his breakthrough album My Turn with a special Tangerine reissue via Quality Control Music. The record was originally released in 2020 and very much launched the Atlanta rapper into superstardom and was the first long player of that year to go double platinum and eventually earn a rather impressive 7x platinum status. Famous for its era-defining hits like 'Emotionally Scarred' and 'We Paid,' the album cemented Lil Baby's status as a generational voice in hip-hop and listen back now, despite how fast this genre moves on, it still stands up as an album that marked the moment Lil Baby took the lead.

Review: Now legendary American rapper Lil Wayne dropped his sixth studio album Tha Carter III back in 2008. On the occasion of its 15th birthday it is getting this special reissue featuring appearances from dons like Jay-Z, Fabolous, Robin Thicke, Busta Rhymes, Babyface and Kanye West, among others. The album came after a series of strong mixtapes and Lil Wayne features on other seminal hip hop and r&b records but served as a fine reminder that he is never better than when in full creative control. The beats and bars have all aged remarkably well and very much stand up in 2023.

Review: London Grammar's fourth studio album, The Greatest Love, arrives as a comprehensive deluxe package, including a 20-page hardcover book, 12" vinyl, 10" vinyl with bonus tracks and CD. The album marks a significant evolution for the band, reflecting their journey over eleven years since their debut If You Wait. Known for their ethereal vocals and emotive lyrics, the band has maintained their distinct sound while embracing a newfound creative freedom. With lead single 'House' symbolising empowerment, the album blends electronica with pop, showcasing tracks like 'Fakest Bitch,' which highlights Hannah Reid's powerful vocals and raw, introspective lyrics. The release follows their successful Californian Soil and notable touring achievements, including performances with Coldplay and record-breaking UK tour sales. The Greatest Love captures the band's shift from relentless touring to prioritising art and personal growth, a reflection of their expanded confidence and evolving musical approach. It's a celebration of their artistic journey and commitment to music, balancing personal and creative fulfillment.
