The 20 Best Albums of 2017 (Part 2/2)

This is the second part of the list "The 20 Best Albums of 2017" according Jus' Sayingg.

11. Calvin Harris - Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1

Album cover

"party like it's 1980" says in the second track ("Cash Out") from the album "Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1" by Calvin Harris, which was released on June 30th 2017. This album has a great 80s vibe and it's full of amazing collaborations and unforgettable songs. Another great thing about it is that, it has the perfect number of tracks, I mean, ten tracks are enough to have a great dose of funk. Lyrically, "Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1" has awesome songs; such as, "Faking It" (featuring Kehlani and Lil Yachty) and "Hard to Love" (featuring Jessie Reyez). On the other hand, if you prefer to dance and enjoy the party, you should play "Cash Out" (featuring Schoolboy Q, PartyNextDoor and DRAM), "Skrt on Me" (featuring Nicki Minaj), and "Feels" (featuring Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry and Big Sean).

12. Mura Masa - Mura Masa

Album cover

"Mura Masa" is the self-titled debut studio album by Mura Masa and it was released on July 14th, 2017. It isn't a surprise that it was nominated for the 60th Annual Grammy Awards (in 2018), because this album is pure fire! It has guest features by ASAP Rocky, Bonzai, Charli XCX, Christine and the Queens, NAO, among others and each track shows an amazing and original music style. It would be difficult to choose just one song, because each one is pretty different sonically and Mura Masa explored several sounds creating a great electronic album. Personally, the best songs are "Messy Love", "1 Night" (featuring Charli XCX) and "All Around the World" (featuring Desiigner).

13. Kesha - Rainbow

Album cover

The most introspective album by Kesha is "Rainbow", which was released on August 11th 2017, after 4-year hiatus without releasing something new. It is also one of her most acclaimed albums so far and in "Ranbow", we can notice how much she has grown and evolved musically, because even when it has the pop that we like from her; she's mixing a little bit of country vibes. Somethings that is very beautiful from this album is that, she had the opportunity to recover from dark moments by writing stunning songs. My favorite songs were "Woman" (featuring The Dap-Kings Horns), "Praying", "Learn to Let Go" and "Hunt You Down".

14. Demi Lovato -  Tell Me You Love Me

Album cover

“I not only love singing it, but I think the underlying meaning is important for people to know. At the end of the day, you have everything you need standing right in front of you. And that’s yourself.” Said Demi explaining the song that has the same name of her album. "Tell me You Love Me" is her sixth studio album and it was released on September 29th 2017. Personally, she has been one of those artists that has grown musically after several albums, because this is her second most acclaimed album (after Confident in 2015). She's a great singer and in this album she explodes more her beautidul voice in songs like "Tell Me You Love Me", "You Don't Do It for Me Anymore" and "Only Forever".

15. P!nk - Beautiful Trauma

Album cover

“life is f*cking traumatic. But it’s also incredibly beautiful…” Said P!nk describing her seventh studio album "Beautiful Trauma", which was released on October 13th 2017. In this album it's very noticiable that she has explored new beats, making songs more dance-pop and electronic; however, she keeps singing about the same topics and as in her previous albums. Songs like "Whatever You Want", "What About Us", "Barbies", and "Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken" are the best from her "Beautiful Trauma".

16. St. Vincent - MASSEDUCTION

Album cover

"This record’s about power, the seduction on a big scale and on a little scale, you know. The political seduction or the sexual seduction or the seduction of chemicals and drugs and all that." Explained St. Vincent about her fifth album "MASSEDUCTION", released on October 13th 2017. We cannot deny her amazing skills as a songwriter and as a guitarrists, this album has the best of electropop and glam rock together, without forgeting her amazing vocals during songs like "Los Ageless", "Happy Birthday, Johnny" and "New York". 

17. Taylor Swift - Reputation

Album cover

"Big reputation, big reputation, Ooh, you and me, we got big reputations, ah, And you heard about me, ooh, I got some big enemies (yah), Big reputation" sings Taylor in the song "End Game", from "Reputation" which was released on November 10th 2017. She's has been one of the most successful and controversial artists from this decade; however (and even when I'm not into her music), I have to admit that she's a talented songwriter. It seems that the "country girl" has gone (well, she's dead), because in "Reputation" we can listen to a more electropop Taylor, with dark tracks and catchy ballads. The best songs from this album are "...Ready for It?", "I Did Something Bad" and "Look What You Made Me Do".

18. Paloma Faith - The Architect

Album cover

"I wanted to look at the world around me rather than the world inside my mind..." Said the British artists Paloma Faith about "The Architect", that was released on November 17th 2017. Paloma is one of those singers that always surprises me with fresh and powerful songs, in this album she describes it as a "social observation record," because she sings about socio-political issues instead of focusing in herself (as in her previous albums). Nevertheless, she keeps blessing our life with incredible R&B and soul tracks, where we can notice that she's singing better than ever! My favorite songs were "Crybaby", "Til I'm Done", "Still Around", "WW3" and "My Body".

19. Tove Lo - BLUE LIPS

Album cover

"And in a deeper sense, it’s about never feeling satisfied. I don’t mean sexually; I mean just in life in general." Explained Tove Lo about "Blue Lips (Lady Wood Phase II)", that was released on November 17th 2017. In this album Tove Lo shows a more sexually explicit lyrics with darker beats. This album is has also the last two "chapters," which were "Light Beam" and "Pitch Black". In the first one, Tove Lo sings about "enjoying the lack of responsibilit," while the last one is about the "post-rush come-down, heartbreak." "Blue Lips" has that kind of "nasty" songs that are very beautiful at the same time (in a weird way). My favorite tracks were "She Don't Know but She Knows", "Stranger", "Cycles" and "Struggle".

20. Miguel - War & Leisure

Album cover

"War & Leisure has political undertones, because that’s what life feels like right now. This album is intentionally about the ethos right now, that we are right in the middle of all this." Said Miguel about his fourth studio album "War & Leisure", which was released on December 1st 2017. Almost at the end of this year, Miguel gave us a complete album full of great R&B songs, where he makes us reflect on important issues. It has several songs that are full of reality and that we can relate with. Personally, the best songs are "Criminal" (featuring Rick Ross), "Wolf" (featuring Quiñ), "Told You So" and "Now".

If I had to choose just one of these 20 albums as my favorite/or the best from them, I would choose "Melodrama" by Lorde. Now tell me, what about you? Do you agree with this list?

The Neighbourhood - Scary Love

The NBHD is one of my favorite alternative rock bands and I'm so happy that they are giving us new music. This new song called "Scary Love" will be part of their upcoming new EP called "To Imagine," which it's set to be released on January 12th, 2018. I like that they are making new sounds in their dark sonds.

Charli XCX - Out of My Head (feat. Tove Lo & ALMA)

I have to say that the first time that I heard this song, I was like "meh," but then I listen it with my headphones and it was amazing! These three girls together are fire and this song is lit! I can't wait to listen to Charli XCX's upcoming mixtape.

INNA - My Dreams

I really like her Latin vibe, she has that kind of sweet voice that mixes perfectly with this tropical sounds. This song will be part of her upcoming album "Nirvana" and it is one of the few songs that she has been releasing.

G-Eazy - Sober (feat. Charlie Puth)

This collaboration with Charlie Puth has been one of the best decisions that G-Eazy has made, because they sound so good together and I have to say that I'm not into G-Eazy's music. 

R3HAB & KSHMR - Island

R3HAB is a great DJ and this new song proves it, it's catchy and the beat is on point.

Jax Jones - Breathe (feat. Ina Wroldsen) 

Jax Jones never dissapoints with his singles, because this new song is as good as gold! He knows how to make hits. If you don't know this DJ you should look for more songs by him, you won't regreat it!

The 20 Best Albums of 2016 (2/2)

This year was full of great album debuts and non debuts (for some) however, there were 20 albums which excelled more than others, because of the fresure and originality. In the next list, I will share with you the best 20 albums of 2016, according to me. Before you read the albums that I chose, I want to tell you that was very difficult to choose just 20, because the truth is that 2016 was a great year for music and us, fans.
No more to add, here it is the list of The 20 Best Albums of 2016 part two by Jus' Sayingg:

NAO - For All We Know (July 29th, 2016)

Album cover

"It’s the one moment in which she seems to step into the past and it’s just as powerful as her forays into future pop, proving NAO has the potential to become one of the most progressive voices in soul and R&B." By Dusty Henry (from COS)

NAO was one of the best discoveries that I found in this year that is ending. Her debut album is one of the best R&B records of the year and the times. Nao is pretty original and her voice is sugar-sweet.

My favorite song: In the Morning

ZHU - Generationwhy (July 29th, 2016)

Album cover

“If you look at the album cover, it's a baby—there's no other really raw way to kind of express intimacy than a baby, right? You have no idea of the world, there's no prejudice, there's no preconceived notion. You're free to digest what you want, to listen to what you want, and do what you want. I wanted to sonically emulate that kind of progression in terms of going from dark into light, that journey of kind of feeling like a child.” ZHU

He was another great discovering and since I heard his penultimate EP, I knew that his album would have to be as great as his EP. Generationwhy is a dark electronic album with amazing beats and unforgettable lyrics.

My favorite song: In the Morning

DJ Snake - Encore (August 5th, 2016)

Album cover

"I felt like I was in the middle of the desert, and nothing worked. I was trying so hard to make it, and I kind of lost my touch and my vision, just because I wanted to make it so bad. And then I was like, f*** it, now I'll do me. " DJ Snake

DJ Snake started with great hits such as Turn Down For What or the collaboration with Major Lazer in Lean On, but for his debut album he let his best tracks and making Encore one of the best electronic dance music albums of 2016.

My favorite song: Here Comes the Night (featuring Mr Hudson)

Bastille - Wild World (September 9th, 2016)

Album cover

"I think we’ve really pushed our sound. The whole album weaves through these different moods and scenes, going from massive to tiny and intimate and then back to bombastic again." Dan Smith (lead singer of Bastille)

Every single song in this album is a whole story, that not only will make dance or sing but also to think about different issues. Bastille is one of the most talented bands nowadays and Wild World is the proof.

My favorite song: Power

AlunaGeorge - I Remember (September 16th, 2016)

Album cover

"You can to try and get over somebody, but my personal hunch is that you never really stop loving someone if you really did love them. You can get them out of your life and not see them, but if you bump into them you’re just going to feel that again." Aluna Francis

AlunaGeorge have shown that they can explore new rhythms without losing their original essence with this album. It is full of amazing anthems since the beginng to the end and it is rhythmically perfect for a Saturday night.

My favorite song: Not Above Love

OneRepublic - Oh My My (October 7th, 2016)

Album cover

"the longest amount of time [the band had] ever spent on one project[...]We did a lot of living in the last four years -- there was a lot to write about." Ryan Tedder (lead singer of the band)

Oh My My is a great album full of songs about everything, you know, love, breakups, life, hope, everything! OneRepublic also has proved that they can explore new sounds and rhythms. 

My favorite song: Dream

Two Door Cinema Club - Gameshow (October 14th, 2016)

Album cover

"There was a different feeling this time around. We were willing to take more chances and try things that were a little more different, more so than we ever had done before. We had taken quite a long break and that fed the record really – we had to recollect after living a whirlwind life really for the past five years. There was a lot of discovery. We turned up in the studio with a freshness and a new, better attitude and a lot more confidence."  Alex Trimble (lead singer of the trio)

I have to admid it, it was the first album that I heard from this band, but thanks to this incredible record I found out that TDCC has evolved a lot. Gameshow is pure fire and you should burn with it.

My favorite song: Fever

Tove Lo - Lady Wood (October 28th, 2016)

Album cove

“It’s about chasing rushes and highs which you can’t have without extreme lows, so it’s an album about those amazing moments when you feel at your most alive, whether it’s taking drugs or being onstage." Tove Lo

Personally, I think that Lady Wood will be a watershed for other artists in the next years, because Tove Lo succeeded creating the perfect combination between electro-pop and tech house, that I believe it will be the sound of the future and Tove Lo has created it.

My favorite song: Keep It Simple

DNCE - DNCE (November 18th, 2016)

Album cover

"I feel like the biggest reason would be that it’s our first album out and we want to introduce ourselves to the world – make it easy to find [laughs]. We want people to not have to search too much around what the album name is, just say, “Hey, this is us, we are DNCE, welcome to our life.” Joe Jonas (lead singer of the band)

Since I found out that Joe Jonas was working in a band called DNCE I thought that it was just to be transient band however, since they release Cake by the Ocean they killed me with their original anf funky vibe. Their self-titled debut studio is full of party vibes and super catchy tracks, but it is a very good debut.

My favorite song: Toothbrush

The Weeknd - Starboy (November 25th, 2016)

Album cover

"It’s almost schizophrenic, who I portray in my music. The vibe just represents how I feel, what relationship I’m going through, what friendships I’m going through, the success in my life, the failures in my life" The Weeknd

And Abel has did it again! If you thought that Beauty Behind the Madness was going to be his artwork, you were wrong, because with Starboy he has outdone himself, creating an amazing album with dope beats, unforgettable lyrics and an aura darker than ever.

My favorite album: Rockin'

Album Review: Tove Lo - Lady Wood

Album cover

Lady Wood is the second studio album by Swedish singer Tove Lo. It was released on October 28th, 2016. According to Tove Lo, the album title means: "having balls as a sign of bravery, and also how people think of being a coward as being a pussy, which she mentions is unfair."

I listen to her music since 2014, when she released her EP Truth Serum and I remember that the first song I heard was actually a remix of her hit Habits. However, with her debut album Queen of the Clouds, Tove Lo showed me that she was a great singer, talented songwriter and a unique artist that deserved my attention.
Lady Wood is an amazing album that shows her musical growth and her unique music style. Lyrically, you will find songs about casual sex, love, confidence, drugs, romance and vulnerability. While musically, this album is darker than her debut album, because it has slow beats but it follows her electro pop style. She said that: "There’s definitely a different sound to it — we’ve gone a little bit more dark techno vibe with it, some of it. You know, blended with pop."

The first track is an intro called Fairy Dust (Chapter I). Tove explained it saying: "We had a very small screening for the first chapter, which is called “Fairy Dust.” It’s the beginning of a rush, when you’re starting to feel it,". Followed by the first song that is a collaboration with Wiz Khalifa. The song is called Influence and with it, the album opend with a very sexual vibe and sassy mood. The third track is Lady Wood in which Tove Lo sounds very confident about herself and this song is the one with a fastest beat in comparison with the other tracks.
This album has several danceable tracks and one of them is: True Disaster, followed up by the amazing dope track Cool Girl, that is the lead single and with it, I knew that Tove Lo's new album was going to sound different and dark. The second collaboration is with Joe Janiak; the song Vibes is also about a romance with a guy and the issue of this song is very similar to True Disaster. Vibes at first sounds like a ballad with guitar, but then it becomes an electro pop song and Joe's voice sounds perfect.

"What's your line, though?

That I'm fine, oh

Heard that before

But somehow it means more"

The second chapter of Lady Wood is divided by the intro Fire Fade (Chapter II), that according to Tove Lo: "is like halfway through the set when I’m getting a little tired and I can feel people’s attention lacking a little bit. I feel more aware of where I am and who’s with me." This chapter starts with an interesting song called Don't Talk About It, where she sings about the dark side of fame and its ravages. Don't Talk About It has an explosive chorus and it is very catchy and it is like a progressive song, because it grows with the pass of the seconds. However, the most vulnerable song in Lady Wood is Imaginary Friend. However, Keep It Simple is also very personal and emotional, actually I think it is my favorite song from the whole album. Nevertheless, Flashes "is like an outflow to a lover who is affected in a negative way by Tove’s fame and money." 
Tove Lo ends the album with WTF Love Is, which is a dramatic way to finish it, because in the song we can notice a confused girl with a lot of insecurities about herself and about her feelings.

Lady Wood by Tove Lo is a great dark album not only musically, but also lyrically; it so personal that you will feel empathic to her feelings. On the other hand, Tove Lo said that this album is the first half of a two-piece double album, which is going to be released in 2017 and I'm getting excited. I loved Lady Wood and I think it is one of the best albums of 2016.

Tove Lo - Lady Wood: ★★★★★

Tove Lo released Cool Girl as the lead single on August 4th, 2016. Followed by two promotional singles: Influence (feat. Wiz Khalifa) and True Disaster. 

I consider Tove Lo as one of the best "new" artists of recent times. She is a pretty talented songwriter and her voice is so unique and beautiful.

Songs to have a better weekend / Tove Lo, Y&Y, Martin Garrix...

Tove Lo - True Disaster

After have premiered this song live at the VMA Pre-Party, Tove lo has decided to release it on her official Youtube and also, you can buy it on iTunes. Lady Wood is the name of her second studio album and as she said, the album will be pure electro pop adn True Disaster follows the same beats that her two previous songs have. Personally, I love Tove Lo's music and this new song is great and lit.

"Keep playing my heartstrings faster and faster

You can be just what I want, my true disaster

Keep playing my heartstrings faster and faster (true disaster)

You can be just what I want, my true disaster"

Martin Garrix - WIEE (with Mesto)

Martin Garrix will be releasing seven new tracks each day and today, he released WIEE featuring Mesto. It is an instrumental track and it has a great vibe.

Years & Years - Meteorite

Years & Years are part of the official soundtrack for British romantic comedy film, Bridget Jones’s Baby. Y&Y have released an acoustic version of Meteorite that not only can be heard in their official Youtube, but also you can buy it on iTunes. 

I really like Years & Years' music style and Meteorite is an awesome song. Olly Alexander (the singer) is pretty talented and he shows it in this unplugged version of their single.

"Let me feel your devotion

Let me feel your emotion

Love me like it's the last night

Like it's the last night"

Machine Gun Kelly & Camila Cabello - Bad Things 

The American rapper Machine Gun Kelly, in collaboration with Camila Cabello from Fifth Harmony in MGK's new single Bad Things. I have to admit that is the first time that I heard MGK's name, so it means that it is the first song that I hear by him. However,  Bad Things isn't a bad song and Camila's voice sounds pretty cool in the song (even when I don't like her voice).

"And you keep me in with those hips

While my teeth sink in those lips

While your body's giving me life

And you suffocate in my kiss"

I would like to know guys, what was your favorite song? Did you liked Camila Cabello's collaboration in MGK's song? What's your favorite version of Meteorite? Leave all your comments here and follow me on Twitter nad Facebook (@JusSayinggBlog). 

Intergalactic videos by Years & Years and Flume

Years & Years - Meteorite

The British electro-pop trio published the music video for the song Meteorite, taken from the soundtrack for British romantic comedy film, Bridget Jones’s Baby. 

I have to admit that I'm a fan of these guys and I listen to their music since they weren't too "famous", so I like this song. Talking about the video, I think that it's very entertaining and fun. What I liked the most was that, we can see Emre and Mikey dancing and is the first time that I see them dancing.

"I don't know how it led to this

I felt a tremor in your kiss

The earth shakes, and I answer it

My body realigns"

Flume - Say It (feat. Tove Lo)

Flume published the music video for his last single Say It, featuring Tove Lo. It is a song about sex and the desire for past and present relationships. 

Flume's last album Skin is one of the best albums of 2016, according to me and to other people and Say It, is one of the best song from it. Talking about the music video, is pretty cool and even when it doesn't have too much sense, I think that it is perfect for this kind of music.

"Feeling the song, party done, shadows walking home

Walking with our game on

You are my kind, classic mind, and you look so fine"

My favorite music video was...

I will choose Years & Years' newest video, because I like the song and I think that it's very entertaining and fun.

Women power! Tove Lo, AlunaGeorge, Skylar Grey & JoJo

Tove Lo - Influence (ft. Wiz Khalifa)

Finally, Tove Lo has released in her official Youtube account her latest song Influence, featuring the rapper Wiz Khalifa, it is taken from her upcoming second album Lady Wood.

I'm very excited about her upcoming album, this new song sounds so great. It follows the same dark sound as in Cool Girl, but this new song is about being drunk and / or high and to lose control of yourself. 

"You know I'm under the influence

So don't trust every word I say, I say

When I'm under the influence

It's a blur, but I want my way, my way"

Skylar Grey - Kill For You (ft. Eminem)

This new song taken from newest album (out now) is a collaboration with Eminem, it is called Kill For You and it is an interesting song. It was a song that was inspired by " Bonnie and Clyde, who are a couple known for their homicides and robberies." In this case Skylar is totaly in love with Eminem and she would do anything for him. Lyrically it has a lot of verses, but are well written and talking about the beat, it's not that bad, but I got bored in some parts.

"You gon' make make me a believer

Even if that shit ain't true

You gon' make me commit murder

Baby, I'd kill for you"

AlunaGeorge - Not Above Love

AlunaGeorge has published one the new songs that are part of their latest album I Remember. The song is called Not Above Love and Aluna said that she was emotional when she wrote it. Aluna said: “I think this song speaks for itself, it was a moment where I was really stuck in this emotional… that point where you keep going round and round and you can’t snap out of it and a friend of mine really just explained to me that this person was promising things but not actually delivering anything and they were just stealing my obsessive energy that I was giving to that person.”

"I'm not above love, I just ran out of air

I'm not above love, so it's not like I don't care

And I know you're thinking the worst of me

But I hope one day you'll see"

JoJo - FAB. (Feat Remy Ma)

The American singer, songwriter, and actress JoJo has released the song FAB. which is a promotional single from her upcoming album Mad Love. JoJo said something very interesting about it: “I was literally singing in my head, and I was like I can’t stand these fake ass bitches in my face. I was like, you know what? I’m not cut out for the shmoozing and the fakeness. I literally can’t stand it. I know I’m not the only one that can relate to that. Sometimes [the music] industry can feel a little bit like high school so I was just reflecting on that and pounding it on the treadmill. I came to the studio that night and I was like, listen we gotta talk about these fake ass bitches."

"Fake ass bitches

When they smile in your face, but behind you it ain't well wishes

When they eatin' all the food off your plate and they don't do dishes

When they words and they actions blur and they don't know different"

My favorite song was...

I think that my favorite song today was Influence by Tove Lo and Wiz Khalifa.

But, what was your favorite song? Are you excited for JoJo's and Tove Lo's new album? Leave a comment here and visit the other posts that I have published. Also, follow me on Twitter and Facebook (@JusSayinggBlog).

Tove Lo & BANKS vs. Jason Derulo & Shawn Mendes

Shawn Mendes - Three Empty Words

Has released a new song taken from his upcoming album "Illuminate". "Three Empty Words" is a slow ballad, Shawn said that "thinks it is one of the most “meaningful” songs in his new album" and I think that it sounds great, but his voice still reminds me to Justin Bieber.

"I'll pick you up at the same time

At the same place, the same old drive

We'll just talk about our day

To try to fill the awkward space tonight"

Jason Derulo - Kiss the Sky

"Kiss the Sky" is Jason Derulo's new single, taken from his new recopilatory album called "Platinum Hits", that features 11 multi-platinum hits and this new single. I already heard it and this new song is great, it's so funky and it fresh, because it doesn't sound as his latest songs and it's pretty catchy and fun.

"Cause I believe we can fly now

Spread your wings and kiss the sky

Yeah, I believe we can fly now

Spread your wings, we're miles high

So we can kiss the sky"

Tove Lo - Cool Girl

"Cool Girl" is her newest single from her upcoming second album. Tove Lo describe it as "There’s definitely a different sound to it we’ve gone a little bit more dark techno vibe with it, some of it. You know, blended with pop." 

With this new song I'm waiting desperately for her upcoming album, because "Cool Girl" sounds great! It's so catchy and the beat is ecstatic. Well done Tove! I'm ready for this new era.

"Rules you don't like, but you're still gonna keep 'em

Said you want fines for whatever reason

Show we can chill, try and keep it platonic

Now you can't tell if I'm really ironic"

BANKS - Gemini Feed

"Gemini Feed" is the first promotional single, taken from her upcoming second studio album called "The Altar". I talked about her yesterday in "You Should Listen to..." and I said the reasons of why everybody should listen to this amazing singer, one of the reasons was this new song. It is an alternative-pop with a heavy bass and electro influences that you'll love.

"Open up your eyes

There's nothing on my body left to see

I tried a thousand times

I tried to say "I love you", but you didn't hear me"

My favorite song is...

It was so hard for me to choose just one! Because I'm between two of my favorite singers, Banks and Tove Lo and her respective songs are perfect. However, I will choose Tove Lo's new single "Cool Gilr".

But I would like to know, what was your favorite song? Are you excited for BANKS' upcoming album? Leave all your comments and follow me on Twitter and Facebook. Also share it if you liked what you read and visit me daily.
