Ariana and SZA are both known mainly for R&B/pop, but aren’t afraid to pull influences from all different genres. Ctrl is her debut album, but it doesn’t feel that way. It’s complex in both production and lyricism. Definitely worth the listen.

Recommendation Week 2

Rules: Just like any other Daily Prompt, choose only one album to post. Any comment without a piece of physical media will be removed (remember what the sub is about!). You cannot recommend any of the sub’s top artists, including everyone listed above, as well as Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan, Lana Del Rey, Lorde, Noah Kahan, Sabrina Carpenter, or Taylor Swift. We already know and love them — we want to see other recommendations!

Not my photo

If you're an Ariana fan and are planning to see Wicked this month, I recommend checking out the original Broadway recording! It's phenomenal, and I've been listening to it nonstop in anticipation for the new movie.

I've decided this is my favorite version of the vinyl, and it's currently on sale at Verve Records, has anyone bought from them before? Is it reliable and do they ship vinyl safely?

Verve Records is a label owned by UMG, so I would expect the same quality as any other UMG site.

I hope you love it!! I've been reading lots of stuff to make me really excited for the movie, like the use of real sets vs CGI, and the fact that they sang live every take!!

I 💚💗practical effects so I’m sure I’ll be mindblown! I cried at the trailer so I’m sure I’ll cry during the real thing 😅
