Nov 22, 2025 Cameron Winter - Heavy Metal (overrated online but deserves a spot here) Panda Bear - Sinister Grift Mac Miller - Balloonerism
Nov 22, 2025 I’ve been hearing hits from these albums all throughout the year (good longevity) but never checked out the full albums until yesterday. I know some people will cringe because they are from Blackpink, but these are honestly GREAT pop albums with almost no misses for me (especially Lisa’s album). After hearing what I heard, it feels like it would be a crime not to include these. Alter Ego - LISA Ruby - JENNIE
Nov 24, 2025 at 3:48 PM I have added these and also a pick of my own (trying to keep my picks minimum due to me filling the pool with albums that went #1) My pick is I Feel Everything - Maggie Lindemann Heard this album last night and feel like it deserves a spot here! 26 slots to go! (but I wouldn't mind if they take their time being filled up lol we still have another month of releases to go!)
Nov 24, 2025 at 4:54 PM Who would cringe at Blackpink? They are queens Better then BTS or them Kpop demon hunting
Nov 24, 2025 at 7:27 PM True but her album released in 2024 Glad someone here heard this album I feel like there’s still a bit of a stigma around k pop in America
Nov 24, 2025 at 7:34 PM It’s a sad world. All I wanted was a Korean girl f--- being rational, give em what they ask for (Korean) It’s not enough, few Asian midgets but it’s not Lisa

Nov 28, 2025 at 1:05 AM I’m glad you mentioned these. I specifically didn’t mention them because I thought you would. Although I’m surprised Rebecca Black’s album isn’t here

Nov 28, 2025 at 8:35 PM Hopefully I get to listen to all the entrants! Lot of good picks and a lot of albums I haven't listened to yet! Great year for music if you're not on this forum
Nov 29, 2025 at 1:39 AM Echoed! This year I’m a bit more prepared, have heard around half of them so far, last year I had only heard around 10 I think so I had to do some frantic listening to catch up lol. I’ll start getting through the list during December…
Nov 29, 2025 at 1:45 AM Also, are EP’s allowed? Is there a minumum amount of songs it must have? I have one in mind if allowed, that I’d be interested to see what people think about it. Also, I know it was mentioned before and it’s not out yet, but surely we need to reserve a spot for the Nas & DJ Premier album? With that said I have one more addition: De La Soul - Cabin in the sky
