For this week's reviews we're setting our sights on two of the biggest double albums of recent memory, Cindy Lee's titanic and masterful Diamond Jubilee (Ryley's album of the year so far), and of course, Taylor Swift's divisive, maligned, but meticulous The Tortured Poets Department, which may be her most insular record yet. There's a lot to unpack with both, especially the latter, so we hope you'll join us to dive deep into these interesting albums and let us know your own takes in the comments on YouTube!

A conversation about the pop culture event of the year so far.

For this week's video, we're breaking down 15 of our all-time favorite one-hit wonder songs; songs which were the sole hit to chart in the upper echelons of the Billboard Hot 100 for their artist, but which have left a lasting impression on pop culture, from their era of release to the present day. Some are more remembered than others, and you may find a few hot takes in our picks today, but let us know what you think of these songs, and what are your favorite one-hit wonders, in the comments on YouTube!

We're back after a short hiatus to review two critically acclaimed and much-discussed recent releases: the second instalment in Beyoncé's Renaissance trilogy, COWBOY CARTER, and Vampire Weekend's full-band return for the first time in over a decade with ONLY GOD WAS ABOVE US.
