Beyoncé - Renaissance

Drake - Honestly, Nevermind

The Weeknd - After Hours + dawn FM

Tinashe - BB/ANGEL

Dua Lipa - Future Nostalgia

Naomi Sharon - Obsidian

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign - Vultures

I have to give credit to The Weeknd for being the first one to do it recently

Four on the floor synth pop over some soul samples isn’t dance music imo

But sure

Songs like Paid and Slide are very dance influenced imo. Just using it as a blanket term though. Also Timbaland and Fred Again have production on the album.

Timbaland has always made music that's electronic/dance music adjacent

Honestly Nevermind aging like fine wine, the clear winner.
After Hours is the best album but I wouldnt group it with the rest of them

Bonus:

PinkPantheress - Heaven Knows

All of my favorite dance artists in OP

(Pop staples using it as a gimmick for one album cycle)

Pretty much the focus of the thread. People that don't usually drop dance albums.

Added Dua and PinkPantheress though because they are pretty notable.

Kylie Minogue just dropped a dance pop album and she's been doing that since 1988

That's awesome.

Paramore's After Laughter was great if we're talking dance tourists

Nobody dancing to The Weeknd

Hard Times is one of my fav songs tbh

One of the best pop songs of the last 10 years easy

April mixtape 3
Renaissance
Chromatica

Shorty ran out of her promo budget?

Stylistically I think she likes making it look Y2K inspired. The video for Just For Me is also like this.

They said Weeknd been making the same music his whole career tho?

Dawn FM is not a dance album

I really love hnm for some reason

The genre is just a blanket term. You know what I mean lol.

I don't listen to Weeknd. I don't drive a mini van

What

You don't understand. He only listens to real electronic music.
