Description

It’s been five years since a wave of major albums defined the sound of 2020. In this episode, I’m revisiting the records that shaped that year—from Future Nostalgia to folklore, Chromatica to Punisher—to explore how they hold up today. Some still feel vital, others less so. Let’s find out which ones aged gracefully, and which are starting to show their cracks.

Albums discussed:
Dua Lipa – Future Nostalgia
The Weeknd – After Hours
Phoebe Bridgers – Punisher
Taylor Swift – folklore / evermore
Fiona Apple – Fetch The Bolt Cutters
Miley Cyrus – Plastic Hearts
HAIM – Women in Music Pt. III
Charli XCX – how i’m feeling now
Lady Gaga – Chromatica
Jessie Ware – What’s Your Pleasure?
Chloe x Halle – Ungodly Hour
Halsey – Manic
Rina Sawayama – SAWAYAMA
Justin Bieber – Changes
Ariana Grande – Positions
Katy Perry – Smile
Selena Gomez – Rare
Bad Bunny – YHLQMDLG
Kesha – High Road
