Please please please … may we have another year-in-music in 2025 as strong as this one? In coming up with 10 best album lists, each of Variety‘s staff music writers felt 2024 brought an embarrassment of riches from which to choose. You could already see that in how the upcoming 2025 Grammys are easily the most anticipated ceremony in many years. A lot of the top candidates there show up in our lists (albeit not Chappell Roan, whose album came out in late 2023).

Idles on Being Multi-Grammy Nominees: ‘We’re Grateful to Be Here, But to Need Validation From Awards Would Be Toxic’

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music It may be surprising to learn that Idles, one of the most innovative rock bands to arise in years and an unlikely Grammy perennial, seem to have little background in rock music — at least frontman Joe Talbot. “My influences come from hip-hop, soul music, blues, garage, grime and jungle,” the 40-year-old Brit says, similar to many people from his generation.

Pete Townshend on the ‘Magic’ Era of Thunderclap Newman, ‘Tommy,’ and 1969, the Year That Saved the Who

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music The only thing less likely than Thunderclap Newman, the strange band masterminded by Pete Townshend in 1969, having a No. 1 single is the notion that a 400-plus page history of them would be published 55 years later.

Jack Antonoff on Lana Del Rey’s ‘Beautiful Darkness,’ and How Taylor Swift ‘Validated’ Him as a Producer

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music It may come as no surprise that Jack Antonoff — polymath collaborator with Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Lorde and most recently Kendrick Lamar — thinks of his brain as a hard drive. “Yeah, it’s full of folders,” he says, in the middle of talking about the new Christmas single from his band, Bleachers (and a long digression about Christmas songs in general).

Charli xcx, Jack Antonoff, Lainey Wilson, Quavo, Olivia Rodrigo, Lana Del Rey and More Salute the Year in Music at Variety’s Hitmakers Brunch

Cynthia Littleton Business Editor Charli xcx delivered a heartfelt salute to “The Velvet Underground & Nico.” Jack Antonoff cheekily told a roomful of music industry insiders that “some of you care more about Pop Crave than Pitchfork.” Lana Del Rey confessed she didn’t submit her music for Grammy nominations early on because she didn’t know how. Olivia Rodrigo outed producer Dan Nigro as “the man who finally taught me how to parallel park.” And Lainey Wilson spoke from the heart about her journey that began in a tiny Louisiana town “writing about tequila and cigarettes at 10 years old” on Saturday during Variety’s eight annual Hitmakers Brunch saluting the artists and industry insiders behind the year’s 25 top songs.

How Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff Keep Their Songwriting Fresh: ‘It’s Always an Off-the-Cuff Surprise’

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Taylor Swift and Jack Antonoff have written more than a hundred songs together. So how do they keep things interesting? Especially when Swift is releasing multiple albums every year — not only rerecorded versions of her past albums but all-new ones, including this year’s sprawling, 31- song “Tortured Poets Department.” “I never know what’s gonna happen next,” says Antonoff — Variety’s Hitmakers producer of the decade — who is not Swift’s only collaborator but has certainly been the one she’s worked with the most over the past 10 years.

With Hits by Sabrina Carpenter, Tate McRae, Rose and More, Songwriter Amy Allen Has Dominated 2024’s Charts

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music The common perception of a professional songwriter (if there is one) is that they’re usually working behind the scenes while a superstar artist is mobbed by adoring fans. But in October, Amy Allen — Variety’s Hitmakers Songwriter of the Year and a nominee for the 2025 Grammy award of the same name — played Madison Square Garden.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music If a genetic engineer — or a version of AI way better than the ones we’ve got now — could conjure a perfect song of the summer, there’s a good chance it would sound a lot like Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso”: frothy, effervescent, instantly identifiable and as catchy as poison oak. It even opens with a tinny-sounding intro, as if it were coming out of a tiny speaker on the beach.

Drake Claims Universal Music and Spotify ‘Artificially Inflated’ Kendrick Lamar’s Numbers for ‘Not Like Us’ Diss Track

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music In the latest twist in the bruising beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, the Canadian rapper has initiated legal action against Universal Music Group and Spotify over allegations that the two companies conspired to artificially inflate the popularity of Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us.” The action is doubly surprising because UMG distributes both artists’ recordings. In a filing Monday in Manhattan court first reported by Billboard, Drake’s Frozen Moments LLC accused UMG of launching an illegal “scheme” involving bots, payola and other methods to boost the numbers for Lamar’s viciously personal song, which accuses Drake of pedophilia and amplified the already fiery dispute between the two artists.
