If you’re wondering what that song about the weekend is about then you need to add SZA’s Ctrl or if you’re trying to figure out why pretty girls like trap music, then 2 Chainz is your guy. Nevertheless, if you don’t know where to start, we have a list of albums that you should probably give an ear to. Check out this list below!

All Time Low – Last Young Renegade
