album of the year 2012 HIPHOP

Postby tadpole25 » Dec 2nd, '12, 02:43

HIPHOP ONLY

This is a tough decision.

WTOH was a decent album, but the production was too involved to the point where it was harder to make technical raps on it. It had some weak cuts too.

Life Is Good is really good as well, but Nas doesn't really innovate, but simply returns back to the formula that made him successful in the first place.

Good Kidd Madd City was one of the most unique rap albums I ever heard. Unique flow and delivery. Genuine honest lyrics without being unnecessarily raunchy or preachy. Solid production.

I give it to Lamar.

We talking only hip-hop albums, or from any genre?

If so, I vote GKMC for Hip-Hop AOTY, but Channel ORANGE for AOTY as a whole.

Can you name me any other albums that are B+ and above in quality?

I just don't see 2 Chainz and Nicki cutting it.

Eh... why only these 3 albums?!

Where's Ab-Soul, Reks, Krizz Kaliko, Killer Mike, Apollo & O.C., Xzibit, ...?

People who are claiming this was a weak year obviously hasn't listened to enough Hip-Hop. There were tons of great albums if you would leave your fucking shady niche and listen to something different.
