I'm Goin In might still the hardest Drake verse.
That song still goes as hard today as it did like 5 plus years ago or whatever.
caco still wrong, except for that bit about Drake sounding like he's trying too hard on Worst Behaviour. Video makes it even more cringeworthy.
Can't help but cringe every time Drake plays up on the whole adopted-son-of-the-south shit either. Just compounds with all the other shit he does to seek validation. Take Care had UGK, NWTS had Wu Tang Forever, I bet Views From The 6 will have a song called OutKast or something talking about how rappers tried to outcast him from the industry, but who cares cause the bitches love me.

I honestly think at this point I like Drake's just randomly dropped songs more than anything else from him.
I really liked The Motion that he dropped sometime last year

I prefer NWTS to Take Care honestly. I hate the features and overly poppy feel of some of the songs, it throws off the whole vibe. Has just a few good ass songs in between a lot of mediocrity.
Overall sound and structure of NWTS feels better to me. New Drake song is okay, not feeling it a ton, 0-100 is still that shit though.

Yeah, I love that track. I like simp Drake, there is a time and place for it. Furthest Thing has 2 good halfs of Drake's style. I don't love NWTS but it's a pretty damn solid album.

Never thought Thank Me Later was that bad tbh
I love this album so much.listening to this classic tonight
The samples.. the imagery.. everything is so vibrant.
Worst Behavior is one of Drake's best songs.
NWTS is my album of 2013.
Every Drake album that comes out sets the bar for being his best album, and he pushes it further and it kinda makes me reflect on his previous work in a worse way. Take Care seemed like a classic to me until I heard NWTS, and then NWTS lol.
New song is ok.
I like all sides of Drake. I think he's a really good artist.

What happened to that Mannie Fresh collab?no need. it's one album with talib kweli and two other albums and the rest...
This year's GAF-Hop AotY awards are going to be interesting. Gonna be much more interesting considering major artists didn't get that much love this year, whether they dropped or not.
My guess is Pinata will be very high. Beyond that, who knows.

You're damn right. Escstatic is so much better though.

Pinata is going to be up there for me.
Even though, RTJ 2 isn't out yet, it's likely to be high on the list too, if the rest of it is as good as those singles.
Been real quiet from the Majors though... Unless somebody pulls a Beyonce, which I doubt, I don't know if anybody major drops anything this year.

I liked that new drake.
Also I'm really digging this Clockwork Indigo EP.

Top Ten revised for me:
1. Sir Michael - Banco
2. Isaiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo
3. Ratking - So It Goes
4. Antwon - Heavy Hearted in Doldrums
5. Goldlink - The God Complex
6. Saba - ComfortZone
7. Freddie Gibbs - Pinata
8. Open Mike Eagle - Dark Comedy
9. Big Momma - The Plague
10. Alchemist & Evidence - Step Brothers

We're not getting anything from the "majors". I definitely believe RTJ2 will be top 5 this year. 3 singles were fantastic, and it has a lot of momentum going at this point. Only 8 more days until it drops.
2014 AOTY will be interesting for sure (Pinata will probably get it).

A good number of these albums will appear on my list as well, but shit, the top five for this year is going to hard for me to choose (I think it's been a good year in hip-hop/rap, but that's just me)

Isaiah that high? PInata that low?
I think I have a few of those projects floating around on my PC but haven't listened to em. I'll definitely check them out.
As of now:
1. Freddie Gibbs - Pinata
2. Isaiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo
3. Goldlink - The God Complex
4. Cyhi The Prince - Black Hystori Project
5. Shabazz Palaces - Lese Majesty
6. Lil Herb - Welcome To Fazoland
7. Ratking - So It Goes
8. The Underachievers - Cellar Door: Terminus Ut Exordium
9. YG - My Krazy Life
10. Bones - Skinny
I can see the Rome Fortune tape growing on me more too, might top Bones.

I dig Beauty and the Beast too, but I can't put it up there with The Idea of Beautiful or Thank Her Now.Gave the new Rapsody EP a try after that 9th Wonder/Combat Jack ep. Easily her best project by a mile.
Very dope.
Cilvia is gonna be up there for me. It's passed the longevity test, since I also still listen to it or tracks off it on a regular basis. The test of time is probably the biggest sign of a good album. I don't think I could do a top ten of albums I really feel that way about yet. Got plenty of the more underground shit to catch up with but so far there aren't a lot of projects that have really stuck with me after the first few listens.
