let's get some music talk up in here
this is just the best from what I've heard in no particular order.
Schoolboy Q- Oxymoron: I despise the song 'Studio' and never want to hear it again, but the rest of this album is pretty solid.
clipping-CLPPNG: Nice experimental hip-hop/noise music. I really love the beats on this.
Timbre Timbre- Hot Dreams: I have to be in a certain mood for it but this is 'indie folk' done correctly. Not really a personal favourite but still worth being on here.
Mick Jenkins- Water: very good conceptual mixtape that you can get for free here: http://www.datpiff.com/Mick-Jenkins-The-...38443.html Very good 'jazz-hip-hop' sounding stuff if you're a fan of that kind of thing.
Sia- 1,000 Forms of Fear: For 'Chandelier' alone you all know I'm right. Rest of the album is good too.
Shabazz Palaces- Lese Majesty: A lot were underwhelmed but I enjoy it despite a ton of tracks being really short. Nice electronic vibes here.
Banks- Goddess: One of the best pop albums of the year for sure.
fka Twigs- Lp1: just all around really good experimental pop.
Run The Jewels- Run the Jewels 2: Best straight-hip-hop this year.
D'Angelo and the Vanguard: Black Messiah: Released right at the end of the year, this might be the best tbh.
Some albums have some of my favourite tracks of the year but aren't consistent enough for the top list:
Pink Floyd- The Endless River: So much of this album is boring and not worth discussing but when it is good, it's really tasteful ambient music IMO.
Slipknot- .5:The Gray Chapter: :twisted:
Nicki Minaj- The Pinkprint: I have always liked Nicki Minaj but hated most of her own songs. This is a good return to form for her and I enjoy a lot of the tracks on this.
I digest music very slowly which makes my list lame. I listened to some other albums but either didn't like it or I'm not familiar with it enough to comment.
Also I don't like Ariana Grande much but 'Love Me Harder' is a great tune hmu
