This Week, According To Rani...
He's Baaaaack! Harry Styles Announces His New Album...
The moment we have all been waiting for. Harry’s new album, Kiss All The Time, Disco Occasionally, has officially been announced. Not only are we excited for the music itself, but for the influence it is about to have on us this year. The title alone tells us that more is more again. The party era is back and I am here for it. Goodbye green juices and 5am wake ups. Hello staying up all night, blasting Harry and dressing like Dua.
We have not had a Harry album in four years. There were whispers that he had retired, but true fans knew deep down that something was coming. And of course, it was worth the wait.
Harry has always been ahead of his time, setting trends before we even realise we need them. From feather boas to ballet flats, he has a way of shifting culture without trying too hard. His music does the same. It makes you want to dance in your kitchen, get dressed up for no reason, and romanticise your own life just a little bit more.
If this album tells us anything, it is that joy is back. Dressing up is back. Staying out too late on a weeknight is back. And honestly, it feels like the perfect soundtrack to the year ahead.
My 3 Songs Of January...
Honey by Kehlani is a little hit of R&B soul that feels as smooth as its name. This is the ultimate get ready in the AM girl song. Effortless, warm, and a big confidence boost for your day. The kind of track that makes brushing your hair feel like your true self care experience.
A Little Bit by Lykke Li feels like a memory you can step back into. It reminds me of a time when everything felt magical. Playing outside after the rain, building fairy castles, believing in softness. It is ethereal, nostalgic, and perfect for anyone craving a little wonder in their day.
Fatal Fantasies by Gold Fir is one you feel more than you hear. Close your eyes and suddenly you are somewhere else. A rhythm you did not know you had, a dance floor at dusk, a nightclub in Spain with your girls where time does not exist. Moody, addictive, and made for moving.
Three songs. Three moods. On repeat all January.
Until next week,
Love, Ra xxx
