You Decide Which Discographies Get Ranked in 2025!
Pick your favourites from my shortlist of candidates now.
As we move through the final days of September (!), I’m already preparing the editorial calendar for the upcoming calendar year.
In addition to generating ideas for new long-form posts and selecting albums to cover, I’m narrowing down my list of artists who merit a top-to-bottom discography ranking. I’ve decided on a theme—women in music—but to determine who should get the spotlight, I need your help.
Pick the three artists you’d like to see me do a full discography run-through next year from the following list. The five most popular choices will round out the list, so choose wisely:
As a reminder, here are the artists I’ve already done discography rankings for:

There’s one last discography ranking coming up for the end of the year—who do you think it will be? Which female artist should I absolutely cover in this format next year? Sound off in the comments!
I’m guessing your next one might be Grateful Dead. And I’d love to see one on Madonna.
But what qualities? I wrote a song called Women in Music in the 80's about three NYC artists on the rise one was Elly Brown she raised the roof at the Lone Star Café opening for all my favorite soul stars Sam & Dave Jr. Walker et al. Turned out she was under the wing of Steve Berg later to become my kid pickup playground buddy at ps41 Greenwich Village school where Scarlett Jo was in my daughter's class. She had an album but I think it flopped. Steve worked with Phoebe Snow / Billy Joel and one of my releases by Ivan Julien (Richard Hell & the Voidoids) and Cynthia Sley (Bush Tetras) on 109 Records was recorded at his Baby Monster Studios. It mostly flopped and Elly "Elly say yeah yeah wow there aint no stopping you now." whom I adored flopped. The point is don't do Women in Music it'll flop. Just do music. If you do then Chappell Roan and Sierra Ferrell should be at the top. My 2 cents.
