The Best All Pop Music 2026

1. Tonight (CD)

With sly ballads, sexy beats and sensuous, soulful harmonies, Silk burst onto the charts with their double-platinum debut album Lose Control and the multi-format #1 smash quot;Freak Me.quot; on their new album, the Atlanta quintet preserves their trademark harmonies, but turns up the funk and adds a more mature sex appeal. From stunning ballads like quot;Meeting in My Bedroomquot; to the funky quot;Turn-U-Out,quot; the album is deep in smashes. 1st single/video: The steamy ballad quot;If You.quot;

Tonight

2. Another Level (CD)

Cited as producer/performer/musician and Blackstreet leader Teddy Riley's strongest and most diverse set to date, Another level boasts cross-generational urban, pop and AC flavors and introduces the Virginia-based quartet's newest members, Eric Williams and Mark Middleton. With original lead singer Chauncey quot;Blackquot; Hannibal still on point, Blackstreet delivers scintillating leads and serious harmony that outshines even the group's platinum debut. First single: quot;No Diggityquot; featuring a rap from Dr. Dre.

4. Never Say Never (CD)

The multi-talented Brandy was driven past the quadruple-platinum mark by such tracks as the multi-format smash quot;Babyquot; and the gold pop and R&B hit quot;Brokenhearted.quot; Soon thereafter, her UPN series Moesha became hugely popular and her ABC-TV movie version of Roger & Hammerstein's Cinderella was viewed by more than 60 million people. Brandy's long-awaited 2nd album shows a more mature side of the 19-year-old superstar, and features the 1st single/video: quot;The Boy Is Mine.quot;

6. The One (CD) by Elton John

CD. Elton John once claimed that he could remember The One among his latter-day albums because it was the first he recorded without drugs or alcohol. If true -- and there's no reason to doubt him -- that could be the reason why this has more character than most of his albums since the early '80s, holding together well in its deliberately measured, mature songcraft by Elton and Bernie Taupin. There's less gloss than on many of his late-'80s records, and John gives a fairly convincing performance throughout this set of pretty good songs. If there's any real problem, it's that the album just doesn't have many memorable songs. Though they're all reasonably melodic and well-crafted, none of the them have memorable musical or lyrical hooks and, if anything, Chris Thomas' production is too evenhanded. Still, even if it isn't memorable, it does represent a meaningful move forward, just because it does sound warmer and more considered than the records that immediately preceded it. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
