Favourites of January 2020

Georgia – ‘Seeking Thrills’ (released on 10th Jan 2020):

I had been looking forward to this for a while. Georgia’s debut was a beautiful banger and on ‘Seeking Thrills’, the London artist shows that she has found a confidence in her sound and proves an ear for good dance music.

I wrote more about this for Nothing and Hope and Passion – Follow this Link to explore my piece and find some more treasures!

Mac Miller – ‘Circles’ (released on 17th Jan 2020)

The release of ‘Circles’ seems to be another harsh reminder of how precious life is and that, if we’re lucky, our work will live on – even if it’s only for a certain amount of time. Posthumous records can either turn the listener’s memory of an artist into a sour mess or it can elevate, in this case come full circle.

Special mention to:

Stormzy – ‘Heavy Is The Head’ (released on 10th Jan 2020)

Mick Jenkins – ‘The Circus’ (released on 10th Jan 2020)
