While I prefer Hello Nasty of the two Beastie albums I've listened to so far, I still think License To Ill is pretty great. It also spawned this hilarious segment from Rap Critic dP3HZQ_ib64

How I plan out my Playlists Of The Month (for those who are new to them): The Mostly Recent section usually has a Top 60 of this month ranked from most fave, but there has been the rare occasion where I have expanded it to a 75 (due to some months where I listen to so many good songs). Since 2019, my playlists have been consisting of songs that have been at least an 8/10 for me at the time. The Retro section used to be in a more random order, but now its in a similar order to the mostly recent section. My Top 25 of this month are all songs I would give the 'GOLD' rating to. That does not happen a lot. And the 9/10's end at #45, which is impressive MOSTLY RECENT SECTION King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Hell’s ItchPVA - BunkerJVKE - Golden HourLoyle Carner - PlasticSudan Archives - #513Flohio - SPFBakar - NW3Slipknot - Hive MindDanger Mouse and Black Thought feat.

DAYTONA is probably my favourite of the Wyoming Sessions albums (with Kids See Ghosts coming close) I discovered "No Vaseline" from the Straight Outta Compton movie and you pointing out the Anti-Semitic bar reminded me of that scene where Heller turned off the CD player and (understandably) got mad at the line.

On a recent lounge quiz, I incorrectly guessed the drum intro of No Doubt's Hella Good as Daft Punk's Face To Face, so that could be a possible similarity Also... Kylie Minogue's Get Outta My Head and Alesso's Cool

Ending this off with my Top 40 entries of the UK Top 40 in 2021 Mainly focusing on those that reached their peak between December 2020 and November 2021, which is why Seventeen Going Under will appear on next year's list instead. I have a five year rule (maximum of five years between year of release [2016] and year of list [2021]), which means a Top 40 entry must not have been released before 2016. Runaway by AURORA is, therefore, ineligible because while the album it was from did come out in 2016, it was released as a single in 2015.

https://dalekturret32.blogspot.com/2022/07/...21-quickie.html Top 10 UK Hits Of 2021 (Quickie)

@1551895330370854916 I was, on the other hand, a little disappointed that Screen Violence and Ants From Up There missed out, but this does look like a promising shortlist. Especially looking forward to checking out Gwenno and Kojey Radical (the former's Le Kov album was fantastic)

Don't know if FKA Twigs will get nominated because it's a mixtape. Was going to say the same, but GOY are England-based, so they MIGHT get nominated

We're getting closer to the Mercury Prize and you know what that means? Prediction time! Possible contenders: Little Simz (this one has to make it through. It received so much universal praise and made it high on so many Best Albums Of 2021 list, and I think it's great too) CHVRCHES Self Esteem Joy Crookes Black Country, New Road (these last four are very likely to make it through. Seen a lot of buzz around them) - Fontaines DC (hope this one gets through) Florence + The Machine Wet Leg The Mysterines Nilufer Yanya Sam Fender The Lathums Kelly Lee Owens Public Service Broadcasting Porridge Radio Let’s Eat Grandma Tirzah Charli XCX Rex Orange County Paolo Nutini Another UK rap album (Knucks, Kae Tempest, Kojey Radical, Ray BLK) Jazz album (Binker & Moses, Emma-Jean Thackray) Debut album At least one commercial success (Adele, Harry Styles, Years & Years, George Ezra) Personal wishlist: Foals, Black Midi, Alfie Templeman, Yard Act, Working Men’s Club, IDLES, Jungle, Everything Everything, The Smile, Bloc Party, Lone, Bonobo, Ross From Friends, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes Dave's album may not make it since the previous album already won, but Wolf Alice managed to get Blue Weekend in the nominations last year despite its predecessor winning so I might be wrong.
