Now that we are officially halfway through 2024, the first wave of "Best Albums of 2024 (so far)" lists are here. So this week, host Carmel Holt brings back one of her favorite episodes of the year so far, in conversation with one of her favorite artists discussing her then-new album that is now newly anointed as one of the best of the year by critics (and was immediately put on our own). The album is Brittany Howard's sophomore solo album, What Now, and Carmel sat down with Brittany back in February when it first was released to talk about what is her most free and fully realized work thus far.
