Rolling Stone has released its list of the top 100 albums of 2024, naming Beyoncé, Tems, Latto and an array of artists across the different music genres.
Beyoncé earned a top-five spot, coming in at number 2 for her first-ever country project, Cowboy Carter. “A college dissertation of an album: richly researched and meticulously constructed” is how Rolling Stone describes the Grammy-nominated album.
Tyla‘s self-titled debut earned the South African native the number 6 spot and the title of “ambassador” of the Amapiano genre.
On the hip-hop side of things, the list recognizes Latto‘s third project, Sugar Honey Iced Tea; We Don’t Trust You, the Future and Metro Boomin collaboration; Blue Lips by ScHoolboy Q; Sexyy Red‘s viral mixtape, In Sexyy We Trust; Ice Spice‘s debut, Y2K; GloRilla‘s first studio album, Glorious; Chief Keef‘s fifth project, Almighty So 2; and more.
Normani and Tems hold it down for the R&B side of things, with the magazine writing that “Dopamine is Normani’s clearest artistic statement” and Tems’ Born in the Wild is “an album so rich that the listening experience is a physical one as much as it is emotional.”
Also earning spots on the recurring list is Vince Staples, Doechii, Tyler, The Creator, Arya Starr, Brittany Howard and country star Shaboozey.
