So I think I've got my hip-hop albums sorted out for the year. I restricted it to five albums that are (relatively) easy to label "hip-hop," because once I started putting Frank Ocean and Kaytranada in there it fucked everything up and I was asking myself, "where does it end?" If Kay and Frank then why not Solange, Beyoncé, etc.?
So fuck it... these are my hip-hop albums of the year:
1. Kanye West - The Life of Pablo
2. A Tribe Called Quest - We Got it From Here... Thank You 4 Your Service
3. Common - Black America Again
4. Kendrick Lamar - untitled unmastered.
5. Chance the Rapper - Coloring Book
6. ScHoolboy Q - Blank Face LP
7. Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition
8. Vince Staples - Prima Donna EP
9. Ka - Honor Killed the Samurai
10. Isaiah Rashad - The Sun's Tirade
[EDITED: for Ka]
