The best of the best. Photo-Illustration: Vulture Last year was a banner year for big-name artists dropping big-name releases. It’d be faster to run through the A-listers who didn’t release an album in 2018 than the ones who did. By strong contrast, 2019 was more of a transitional changing of the guard year, allowing space for new faces, like Billie Eilish and Lizzo, to make big splashes and for seasoned veterans, like Wilco and Solange, to create bigger, fresher waves.
9. Sturgill Simpson, Sound & Fury In four albums, Kentucky troubadour Sturgill Simpson evolved from a rising country star to a critically acclaimed singer-songwriter to a kind of Nashville outlaw to a rock star making records about the stresses of making records.
6. Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, Bandana Freddie Gibbs raps like the Terminator terminates, all credible threats and ceaseless forward motion. It’s perfect to a point that sometimes seems inhuman. It’s little wonder that Gibbs has met one of his greatest collaborators in the West Coast sample whiz Madlib, whose beats get stoned and loose in all the places where Gibbs’s raps tend to be tightly wound.
