Tie between chance and west

Certain · 07-09-2016, 12:59 PM

I've been pretty underwhelmed by rap albums this year, but here are my favorites:

YG, Still Brazy
Chance The Rapper, Coloring Book
Kendrick Lamar, Untitled Unmastered
Future, Evol
Kevin Gates, Islah
Kanye West, The Life of Pablo
Joey Purp, iiiDrops

Non-rap:

David Bowie, Blackstar
Radiohead, A Moon Shaped Pool
Blood Orange, Freetown Sound
Sturgill Simpson, A Sailor’s Guide to Earth
Parquet Courts, Human Performance
The Hotelier, Goodness
Rihanna, ANTI

I still need to listen to the new albums by The Avalanches and ScHoolboy Q.

Edit: I'm halfway through ScHoolboy Q. It's very good.

kannon · 07-09-2016, 02:26 PM

I almost put the Kevin Gates joint on my list too.

still havent heard that Joey Purp, but people keep saying its good.

i just found out anderson paak is breezy lovejoy

oats · 07-10-2016, 04:41 AM

Anderson Paak has probably got the most play from me, followed by Chance, Kanye and Kevin Gates.

oats · 07-10-2016, 02:23 PM

Its actually pretty good. Skiba is ok still gotta get used to him i guess

kannon · 07-10-2016, 09:22 PM

I feel like the Kanye album doesnt hold up. Maybe it's just me. I listened to it again about a month ago and I found myself hitting skip half way through almost every song.

Pakistani Hand Cannon · 07-13-2016, 01:24 AM

though cozz shit was weak. preferred cozz & effect.

word at anderson paak though. shit smooth.

oddisee alwasta ep been getting spun & the six plus tapes curren$y dropped this year.

other than that hasn't really been shit noteworthy so far. aint listen to school boy q shit yet though.

Joe Boston · 07-13-2016, 07:34 AM

Theres a album by these catz called Ugly Heros produced by Apollo Brown shits pretty nice. U missed Apathys new shit Handshakes with Snakes. What about Aesop Rock. Also new Havoc and Alchemist album.
@kannon

Ghost1 · 07-13-2016, 08:06 AM

Grabbed that schoolboy shit and I'm glad I did. Shits tuff. Prolly grab a couple of these other ones too....but otherwise slow year imo

Ghost1 · 07-13-2016, 09:13 AM

This apollo shjt bang too. Wish he'd work w less conscious (sp) rappers tho. His shit w guilty Simpson still my fav.

Ghost1 · 07-13-2016, 10:03 AM

This Joey purp is a tape?

Or is there an iiidrop tape?

I'm listening to the tape. It's fire.

Finnydot · 07-13-2016, 10:19 AM

@kannon

Ugly Heroes was cool. Aesop Rock's album was cool. I dont think either will get a ton of spins from me though. I have the Apathy album, but havent listened to it yet. I think I passed on the Havoc/Alchemist joint.

Young Thug's Slime Season 3 was cool
Oddisee's Alwasta was dope, but I actually preferred his Instrumental tape. I been bumping that a lot more.
Elzhi's Lead Poison was ok. Not my favorite project of his.
Kaytranada's 99.9% is dope
Vic Mensa's ep is cool
Underachievers' It Happened In Flatbush is cool too.
