Google Play Music has announced its editors’ picks for 2013, and Android users are getting hooked up with some free jams! Yeezus is free from Google’s music service as well as a boatload of other content. Get ready to ring in the new year with Yeezy!
If you’ve been waiting patiently for Kanye Quest to come out for Android, this might not be the announcement you’ve been looking for. But it’s a heck of a deal nonetheless! Kanye West’s Yeezus was the album that you couldn’t avoid this year, its beats even showed up in Moto X advertisements and the trailer for The Wolf of Wall Street. Now’s your chance to download it for free!
While Yeezy is clearly at the vanguard of the promotion, he’s not the only artist represented here. Scottish band CHVRCHES’ came out of nowhere in 2013, blowing up the music blogs and booking a world tour before even completing a full album. Their much-anticipated debut The Bones of What You Believe is free to download as well, for all your synth-pop needs.
A selection of singles from the year’s best and brightest rounds out the curated list. Drake’s ubiquitous Started from the Bottom is here, as well as Arcade Fire’s Reflektor. Tracks from Rihanna, M.I.A., and Cut Copy are offered up gratis and many more. Albums from the selected artists and groups and others who made their mark in 2013 are on sale too. Everything from Danny Brown to Neko Case is here at prices as low as $3.99.
You can grab your free downloads and check out all the year end deals now at the Google Play store. I don’t know about you, but all this fresh music makes me want to ride my motorcycle through a National Park!
