Best of 2022: Music

While the world seemingly inches closer to collapse every single day, the 20s have done at least one thing right: for three straight years we’ve had some terrific new music to listen to as it all goes to hell. There were plenty of awesome albums that came out in 2022, so put on your noise canceling headphones and get ready to hit Like on your streaming service, because the Great Pop Culture Debate panelists are going to tell you about our picks for the Best Music of 2022. We’re talking great albums by Lizzo, MUNA, Wet Leg, Bad Bunny, Soffi Tukker, Betty Who, Kendrick Lamar, Beyonce, and more!

Host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Andrea Guerrero, Gary Jackson, and Jonny Minogue discuss their individual Top 3 picks for the best albums of 2022. No debate, just a pop culture show-and-tell. Did your favorite albums make the list?
