Mainstream hits I appreciated were "Crew" (I was so happy to see this song blow up and it was even nominated for a Grammy.. Brent Faiyaz killed that hook!!), "Sky Walker", "Bad & Boujee", "XO Tour Life" (already kinda sick of it now though) and the molly percocets song (y'all know which one I'm talking about).

I dunno about mine. I really liked that Calvin Harris (I know, shut up) and Frank Ocean song, “Slide.” But more in an “I appreciate that this is a really good pop single” way than in whatever way I usually appreciate Frank’s music.
Definitely wasn’t my *favorite* song.
Probably listened to DNA./YAH./ELEMENT. more than any other 2017 songs. Actually I probably listened to 4:44 (all of it) more than anything else this year, but that album just doesn’t hit quite like DAMN. does.
Almost positive DAMN. is my *easy* album of the year chloce, not just in hip-hop be in music overall. I think this is the first time my favorite album has been an Album of the Year nominee. Hmm. I’m getting old and lame.
I’ll do a perfunctory Top Ten Albums list. It’ll probably be super easy actually. In 2015 it took me... well, well into 2016 go actually finish my shit. And in 2016 I had some many albums I loved that when I decided to pare down my then-normal Top 50-or-so to a top 10, it took me forever to sort that shit out.
This year it’s just gonna be ... whatever ten albums I listened to more than twice.
