God appeared to me in a dream and told me 2025 could be a big year for jazz. Defined subjectively entirely by me. But thinking something along the lines of either

1) An increase in the discussion / popularity of jazz of a similar magnitude to that of country in the past few years,

2) Multiple jazz albums rank very highly on the end of the year lists of RYM or pitchfork, to the point where it feels (to me) like there has been a big move towards jazz,

3) Multiple jazz albums come out that I personally like a lot and rank somewhere in the top albums of the year for me, or

4) An increase in jazz influences in other genres that somehow "matches" the effect of any of the above
