Bit late to the party but my favourite album at the moment is Kate Tempest's 'Let Them Eat Chaos'. It is a hip hop/poetry/spoken word album exploring the stories of 7 people from a London block of flats, who all happen to be awake at 4:18 in the morning. Such an incredible album of strong storytelling mixed with political activism and powerful messages. Listened to the album the whole way through without doing anything else; felt like I had watched a really amazing film at the end of it. The production is also very good, and Tempest's delivery and flow is impeccable. Her live performances are particularly incredible, she really is a force of nature.
I'm enjoying 4:44, the new Jay Z album, although I'm finding it a bit hit and miss. Childish Gambino's 'Awaken My Love' is excellent, also enjoying 'Migration' by Bonobo. Favourite pop album of the year is definitely Lorde's Melodrama. The production/vocal relationship is seamless, the songs are great, production is great, and Lorde's vocals and lyrics are incredible.
