Rolling Stone’s year-end record of “The 100 Finest Albums of 2025” is out!
On December 3 native time, the American journal printed its annual record of its picks for one of the best albums of the yr, which spans all kinds of genres.
BLACKPINK’s Jennie first full-length solo album “Ruby” made the record at No. 29, with Maura Johnston writing, “The most recent on this yr’s sequence of solo initiatives from Blackpink’s 4 members, the quick-moving ‘Ruby’ leans closely into the concepts that dominated R&B-leaning pop within the 2000s and ’10s, typically updating them in intriguing style. If there’s any artist whose specter hangs over the album, it’s Rihanna. Not solely does Jennie have a powerful means to command the middle of candy-coated pop-R&B, there are some moments that really feel like if not direct no less than second-generation descendants of the hazy introspection proven by the Barbadian mogul on her 2016 traditional, ‘Anti.’”
In the meantime, TWICE’s Chaeyoung’s solo debut album “LIL FANTASY vol.1” ranked No. 86 on this yr’s record. Jae-Ha Kim wrote, “Chaeyoung has attained stardom as a member of the Okay-pop group TWICE. On her solo debut, lyrics in regards to the lack of previous buddies, forgiveness, and embracing your personal quirky self pour out of the singer-rapper, as she mixes neo-soul, trip-hop, and funk in her dreamy pop songs. ‘BF’ displays on how fame feeds into loneliness. However there’s optimism, too: On the disco-inspired ‘SHOOT (Firecracker),’ she sings, ‘Don’t say goodbye, there’s a brand new starting.’ Sure, Chaeyoung resides her lil fantasy, however she makes it clear she’s a piece in progress with room to develop.”
Congratulations to each Jennie and Chaeyoung!
