Last year, thousands of artists from the underground to the height of the mainstream announced new albums to be released in 2025, and with that kind of volume, it’s tough to separate the music that will likely define the year from the stuff that will simply come and go.⁠ ⁠ We’re split our most anticipated albums into four categories: The Heavy Hitters (Billboard chart titans and Vogue cover stars), FADER Favorites (indie and underground-adjacent artists we’ve been following), Comebacks We Need (new projects after a lengthy hiatus) and Wishful Thinking (albums we’d love to hear, but probably won’t). ⁠Feat. doechii, jbrekkie, tagabowphl, and many more. ⁠ Take a look at the full list at the link in bio, or head to TheFADER.com.⁠ ⁠ #Doechii #Oklou #FKAtwigs
