    this is not a best of 2025 list since I could only list 1 album per month, so a lot of great albums had to be left off. July-September especially was so stacked. i also included my favourite song from each album. let me know what you think or what months you would change

    February

    oklou - Choke Enough

    March

    I like your list, I'd put Turnstile over Little Simz personally. And Clipse whatever month they dropped (maybe same month as Turnstile and Simz I don't remember)

    Mayhem is not only the best album of its month but the best album of the year.
