NEW YORK, Dec. 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Consequence (https://consequence.net/) is celebrating 2021 in music with its picks for the top albums and songs of the year, as well as individual accolades for band, artist, and rookie of the year.
As determined by Consequence's staff, Tyler, the Creator's Call Me If You Get Lost is the No. 1 album of 2021. From the braggadocio mixed with emotional honesty of "CORSO" to the barely contained rage on "MANIFESTO," Tyler's latest has all the vitamins and nutrients a rap fan needs, complete with perfect cadences and clever wordplay.
Rounding out the top five are Japanese Breakfast's Jubilee, Arlo Parks' Collapsed in Sunbeams, Turnstile's GLOW ON, and Little Simz's Sometimes I Might Be Introvert.
Worldwide music sensations BTS claimed the title for Song of the Year with their cathartic earworm, "Butter." It's joined in the top five by Lucy Dacus' "Thumbs," Lil Nas X's "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)", Japanese Breakfast's "Be Sweet," and Tyler, the Creator's "Lumberjack."
As for individual accolades, Lil Nas X is the 2021 Artist of the Year and Scottish synth pop trio CHVRCHES are Band of the Year. 11-year-old music sensation Nandi Bushell follows in the footsteps of Bilie Eilish, FKA Twigs, HAIM, and The Weeknd by being named Rookie of the Year.
