Man, I love seeing British talent on the list πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§! Wolf Alice's The Clearing is a masterpiece, but I gotta say, I'm a bit surprised it didn't make me vibe as hard as some of the other albums... don't get me wrong, it's still fire πŸ”₯. Cate Le Bon's Michelangelo Dying is so underrated, though - her unique sound is like nothing else out there, you know? And Little Simz's Lotus is just perfection 🌺. I'm also loving the diversity on this list, from indie rock to electronic to hip-hop... it's like they're trying to represent the whole UK music scene or something πŸ˜‚. But what really caught my eye was Lily Allen's Savage - I mean, who puts that in the top 25 and doesn't even say 'it's savage'? 🀣 either way, can't wait to dive into some of these albums!
 
I'm so stoked to see some amazing UK talent on this list πŸŽ‰! Wolf Alice's "The Clearing" is a total standout for me - it's like they're speaking straight to my soul. And Cate Le Bon's "Michelangelo Dying" is just so poetic and beautiful... I love how she's always pushing the boundaries of what's possible with her music 🎢.

I'm also loving the diversity on this list - from indie rock to electronic to hip-hop, there's something for everyone. And it's awesome to see some of these artists getting the recognition they deserve πŸ’₯. Lily Allen's "Savage" is a total banger, and RosalΓ­a's album is like a masterclass in heartbreak songwriting... I'm definitely adding both of those to my playlist ASAP 🎧.

It's also super cool to see Little Simz getting love for her album "Lotus" - she's such an underrated talent. And the fact that The Sault album is being mentioned alongside all this other amazing music just goes to show how much depth and talent there is in UK music right now 🀩.
 
just listened to wolf alice's new album "the clearing" it's so good 🀩 i love the way they mix indie rock with some electronic vibes, really unique sound. but what's up with lilian allen being on the list again? she hasn't released anything new in ages πŸ˜‚ and rosalia's album is just too long to listen to in one go lol 200 songs is a lot to take in 🎡 i'm glad to see some british artists making waves this year though, like john glacier and little simz, love their styles πŸ‘
 
so another "best albums" list πŸ™„, because that's not something we've seen a million times already... but seriously, I'm kinda surprised they didn't include any of the classics from last year πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ, like maybe some of the stuff that's still on repeat on my playlist. and yeah, Lily Allen's album is actually pretty good... who knew she'd surprise us all with "savage" 😏. but seriously though, it's cool to see some new faces and genres making a comeback. RosalΓ­a's album does sound like it might be the soundtrack for a dramatic breakup πŸ’”, and I'm intrigued by Sault's role in all this drama... still can't believe what happened with Little Simz 🀯.
 
I'm loving all the talented UK artists on this list! 🀩 Wolf Alice's "The Clearing" is like a symphony of emotions - I need to make a diagram to express how I feel about it 😊🎨 It's one of those albums that makes you wanna create, ya know?

And Cate Le Bon's "Michelangelo Dying" is so raw and honest 🀯 I love the way she weaves storytelling into her music. What's up with Lily Allen's album "Savage", tho? Is it just a coincidence that the title sounds like a diss track πŸ€‘ or is there more to it than meets the eye?

RosalΓ­a's breakup album, though... Omg, I need to write down some lyrics on sticky notes ASAP πŸ“ It's like she took all her emotions and poured them into this masterpiece. And Sault's album being referenced in that dispute between Little Simz and Inflo? πŸ€” It just shows how much these artists are pushing boundaries and creating something new.

Anyway, I'm hyped for the other UK artists on the list too! πŸŽ‰ Can't wait to give some of these albums a listen πŸ‘‚
 
I'm like totally surprised that Wolf Alice didn't make it to number one on this list... I mean, The Clearing was a solid album, but Cate Le Bon's Michelangelo Dying is just so underrated 🀯. Have you listened to both albums? I think Cate Le Bon's psychedelic vibes are where it's at. And what's up with John Glacier not getting more love? Like, that guy can rap like nobody's business πŸ’Έ. RosalΓ­a's album sounds fire, though - breakup albums are always so emotional and cathartic 😭.
