While by no means a sophomore slump, Sin miedo may leave the listener a little too hungry for more.
-
K.G. sounds like a slightly weaker reiteration of King Gizz’s previous forays into microtonality.
-
Megan Thee Stallion sells herself short artistically on her still mostly decent debut album.

Chris Stapleton returns with a clean slate of sorts and the year’s best country album.
-
Uzi and Future cancel each other out on Pluto x Baby Pluto.
-
Despite its solid first half and finale, Crack a Light is Dope Body’s most predictable batch of tracks thus far.
