Charli XCX – Sucker (Atlantic)
Charlotte Atchison, aka Charli XCX, mixes influences and inspirations as diverse as The Spice Girls, Kate Bush, Lil Wayne, Quentin Tarantino, and Twin Peaks into moody-yet-catchy synth pop described by some as “neon goth.” She began making music at an early age while growing up in Hertfordshire, England and has gradually grown into the successful pop star that she is today. Sucker is her latest release since her successful debut full length True Romance in 2013. Buy Sucker on iTunes now!
Nicki Minaj – The Pink Print (Cash Money/Republic Records)
The Pinkprint is Nicki Minaj’s third studio album. Looking to depart from the dance-pop elements from her second album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, Minaj wanted to make a follow-up record influenced by her more traditional hip-hop beginnings. Her single “Anaconda” off of this record peaked at number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and has become Minaj’s highest-charting single to date in the United States.
