I only listen to albums. Singles tend to spoil the experience of the incoming album so I prefer to wait.
And if there's no album coming, then I don't listen to it.

1. Use proper title format
Do not make up post tags. New releases should be tagged [FRESH], [FRESH ALBUM] (or MIXTAPE) or [FRESH VIDEO] only. [FRESH] tags should only be applied to official music & music videos, not leaks, interviews, articles, art, live footage, etc. [SHOTS FIRED] should only be used for legitimate beef, not jokes or competition among artists.
Song posts must follow the 'Artist - Title (Description)' format with 80 character or less descriptions. Hashtagged keywords & emojis in titles are not allowed.

MODERATORS
Just out of curiosity, does that mean you don't usually listen to music if you don't have time for a full album? Or do you just listen to part now and part the next time you have the free time?
Also, do you listen to mixtapes? As somebody who listens to most of my music from playlists I put together, I'm very curious about this.
I do not, I actually try hard to avoid that kind of thing. I only have 3 playlists. A general listening, one I can listen to with the kids and a workout playlist. I actively try to avoid having too much of any one artist on any of these playlists.
Personally, if I want to listen specifically to one artist, I'm usually in the mood for an album and not just singles.
