Albums That Shaped My Music Taste
20
items As a big music consumer, i have conducted this list with life changing albums that triggered me positively, altered my music taste or sent me to another dimension. My personal opinion these are the albums you should listen to AT LEAST ONCE if you hav...<3
This album was my soundtrack when i was really little, because of my mom's influence. She loved Toto and would constantly play their music, because we would dance together to it. Many years later we got the chance to go to their concert and had a won...
Toto - The Essential Toto (2003)
I have some french roots, so french music is no stranger to me. But when a 15-year-old me found out this record and also watched his concert in Montreal i was stunned! It was so different and refreshing and the topics that were being dissected with e...
Stromae - Racine carrée (2013)
This was the first rap album that i've heard since i was a big Nicki Minaj fan back in the day. I was interested in listening it because of her documentary on MTV. I remember it dove in some very serious topics that i as a kid back then didn't unders...
Nicki Minaj - The Pinkprint (2014)
This album transformed my music taste at just 15-years-old and gave me the freedom that i needed to start experimenting and exploring different sounds and genres. I hold it really close to my heart and whenever i hear a song from this album i just ge...
Year & Years - Communion (2015)
I feel like this album found me instead of vice versa. It's such a chill nostalgic pop vibe that i love. It like they l kinda captured a perfect summer evening and made an album out it so whenever i listen to it i always feel so nostalgic. Beautiful ...
Sports - Naked All the Time (2015)
Discovered this masterpiece when i was in my EDM/House music era & loved every minute of it. Super fun, great music to workout to or just vibe to. It really cemented to me my love for house music!
Disclosure – Caracal (2015)
I can't even express how this album made me feel. It is just so majestic and i love hearing it for the first time. Eversince i discovered them i have been following their work and they just keep getting better and better. This albums talks about love...
Cigarettes After Sex - Cigarettes After Sex (2017)
Now you KNOW i was bussin' it down in front of my empty living room! I just adore Beyonce and this live album filled all of my 9-year-old-self fantasies! Ofc, Queen B herself is serving vocals left and right here, but what i love the most is how the ...
Beyoncé - Homecoming (2019)
Yes I KNOW, i am basic AF. But this is my favorite Taylor Swift album & probably the only one that i know lyrics to every single song (swifties don't kill me). This album is just so soft & gentle & fluffy idk how to truly explain it - it ...
Taylor Swift - Lover (2019)
I don't often listen to local (serbian) music, but this album introduced me to alternative genre of music so i had to include them too. Buc Kesidi is a serbian duo that gives off Arctic Monkeys vibes. I had this album on repeat for so many months i f...
Buč Kesidi - Euforija (2019)
This was my introduction to Tyler, The Creator and although i was a bit late to the party, this album truly revolutionized my music taste. I've never heard anything like it, the storytelling is amazing and i feel like this album introduced me to a wh...
Tyler, The Creator - IGOR (2019)
Musical masterpiece! Transferred me to another galaxy. Love their music generally, but this album is my favorite. Tame Impala is a must-listen if you never heard about him before.
Tame Impala - The Slow Rush (2020)
I am a Weeknd STAN FOR LIFE! This album made me fall in love with his music and feel some emotions i never felt in my life. Beautiful melodies, beautiful songs just everything is so on point here. If you haven't had the chance to listen to his music ...
The Weeknd - After Hours (2020)
I don't understand why people don't talk more about this album???? Like this was so freakin amazing, even to me who doesn't really listen to rock music. This is probably Miley's most underrated album, it has so many bangerz (pun intended).
Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts (2020)
I am not a big fan of rap, i respect it, but this album was pure masterpiece! I could never forget my first time listening to this, it felt like i was in another dimension. It really showed me the complexity of rap albums and storytelling.
Kedrick Lamar - DAMN (2020)
This album i hold very dear to my heart because of how relatable it is to a heartbreak from female's perspective.
SZA - SOS (2022)
MASTERPIECE! I was so late to the party with this one, but once i discovered them, i put this album on REPEAT! It's such a fun summery album but it has so many different instruments and vibes it's just so cool i love it!
Jungle - Volcano (2023)
This is a rare occasion where the live album is even better than the original. I listened to this album almost daily for months! Love this songs, the messages behind them….just EVERYTHING!
Raye - My 21st Century Symphony (Live at the Royal Albert Hall) (2023)
This phenomenal album was such an interesting journey, it literally transported me in another dimension! I don't knw what Billie does to this records that makes them fee so nostalgic. It's like being nostalgic over a memory you never actually lived. ...
Billie Eilish - Hit Me Hard and Soft (2024)
So i do admit Taylor flew off my radar for a few years so when i came back at the beginning of 2025 to check what's new with him i was a bit startled with this album cover and new persona. But don't let this scare you away because this is Tyler's mos...
Taylor The Creator - Chromakopia (2024)
