Haha, I've totally done that. I'm still "working" on 2014's list.

I should give up. I've had the top 15 or so down since January, but there were over 120 albums I wanted to include.

It's just not possible for one person to retain enough relevant information about that many different records to place them in definitive order from best to worst. Hmm... Should #67 be Who the fuck Cares, Nobody that's who? Or should I give that spot to What The Fuck Severian, This is like the Black Alchemy of Statistics, go outside or something!

Arghhh! Tough caaaalll!!!

In other words, I'm done with massive fucking lists.

Vince's album is receiving critical acclaim. only 2nd to To Pimp a Butterfly as far as 2015 goes so far.

yoo I forgot this came out. THanks for reminding me. Gonna listen today.

Iggy Azalea and Nick Jonas are touring together and people are actually paying a ridiculous price of money to see this. gawd!!! she's like the celine dion of hop hop/randb. imagine how twisted and out-there normal the teenage girls are to attend this? what a hellfest!!

ok guys, Kendrick's "Alright" vid is out.. and i feel like everyone here needs to watch this and talk about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-48u_uWMHY

have you seen her new face?

before:



after:




i think her natural face had more character. insecurities..

Kendrick's performance at the BET Awards had FOX News shook:

I would pay to see that, nick jonas is so so so beautiful :o :o :o iggy azalea's evidently aus' total shame, what a fucking dickbag.

I'm kind of bummed about Iggy. Honestly I loved New Classic. I felt like she had so much promise. Then, by the end of the year she re-released the album in butchered form and has now seemed ok w/ relegating herself to being a one trick pony. Have y'all heard "Pretty Girls"? That shit's horrible. Like... I don't know who sabotaged who, but Iggy & Britney made the worst song of the year. But it is really a bummer. I mean, listen to the emotion she put into something like "Rolex," and then wonder how she got here.

ANYWAY - this new Vince Staples is OMG good. Like, same tier as Mr. Wonderful and B4DA$$ on first listen. Which is to say, really really f'ing great, but it's not At.Long.Last.A$AP for me. But, wow. So good. Like multiple times I caught myself w/ eyes wide open, jaw dropped, goosebumps just hanging off every word the dude dropped.

totally. like i don't think i even knew he was capable of making something like "Summertime" (the song). i expected a great album and got exactly what i wanted plus a little more.

yeah, like I thought Hell Can Wait was excellent. But listening to this I'm like "ok, this dude really understands the album format" like how the whole thing feels like two definitive halves. And it flows so well. It's like a well-paced movie or something. Keeps you on the edge of yr seat.

"man i need to fight the power, but i need that new Ferrari".

I know I been saying this enough, but GD 2015 is an amazing year for hip hop. It's been a challenge just keeping up w/ everything dropping.

2. Return Of the Savage (feat. Raekwon and RZA)

13. Life's A Rebirth (feat. RZA)

yeah, the "Free Weezy Album" supposedly drops next week too.

I'm sorry I ever talked up Iggy Azalea, you guys. She's such an unfortunate thing. I just... I just don't have words.

I've gotta get my hands on Summertime '06, I suppose.

Which, it's a fucking double album?! Wwwwhat?!

but I don't think it's "wrong" to have liked The New Classic. It was a good album. It felt interesting. She seemed to have potential... it's just that since she dropped that album she's let the potential go unrealized.

But yes, you DO need Summer 06. It's for real. A defining album of 2015.

My new top of the TOP of 2015 as of the first day of the second half of the year:


A$AP Rocky - At.Long.Last.A$AP
Vince Staples - Summertime 06
Action Bronson - Mr. Wonderful
Joey Bada$$ - B4DA$$
Drake - If You're Reading This It's Too Late
Ghostface Killah - Sour Soul
The Alchemist & Oh No - Welcome To Los Santos



Summertime 06 feels like a part of this new crop of West Coast classics we've seen like Good Kid Maad City, My Krazy Life, etc.


EDIT: A double album.... that could fit on 1CD. It's under 60 mins. it's more a double album for art's sake. To make it clear that it's meant to be heard as two 10-song cycles. The 2 physical discs create more a side-A/side-B feel.

Haha I remember you bigged up her album so much I decided to check it out mfw :confused: Awful, just awful. Although, to be fair, it's probably the only time I've thought you were way off on a recommendation.

This sums up how awful she is...

Kendrick vs. Iggy

Even if you hate Iggy "rolex" is dope.

what the fuck man. ruined her face. same as courtney love. woman is bananas.
