Best of 2025 - The Singles List

 Happy to share our year-end list. This year, the album selection is shorter than usual, while our singles list expands to the customary top 50. Although there were several strong releases, few emerged as defining statements of the year. Still, as ever, the most compelling moments came from artists embracing transformation, through comebacks, reinventions, and subtle evolutions that kept their image engaging. Happy New Year!!
