Roc Marciano – Marciology
Gangrene - Heads I Win, Tails You Lose
Cavalier - Different Type Time
LEX & Buck - Real Estate Real Bad Man & Lukah – Temple Needs Water, Village Needs Peace
...albums after those 5 are almost skippable for me..

Top 5:
Cavalier - Different Type Time Mach-Hommy - #RICHAXXHAITIAN Sunmundi & klwn cat - Lived and Born mary sue - Voice Memos From a Winter in China Roc Marciano - Marciology
Everything Else:
Kooley High & Tuamie - All Infinite Shape - Midnight Geometry R.A.P. Ferreira & Fumitake Tamura - The First Fist to Make Contact When We Dap Nakama. - Embergo Midnight Sons - Money Has No Owners Sadistik & Maulskull - Oblivion Theater MIKE & Tony Seltzer - PINBALL Armand Hammer - BLK LBL Rap Man Gavin & postureless - Tangled Teller Bank$ & Ed Glorious - The Pride & Glory Javi Darko - Death Of An Immortal Supastition - All That Was Left Unsaid Gabe 'Nandez & Wino Willy - Object Permanence
This year has been a little slow, but there's still been a handful of truly great releases. Nakama, Sunmundi, and mary sue have become some of my favorite hip hop artists i've discovered in the last few years. All of those dudes are incredible to me, Nakama has a full album coming out later this year called Everything Burns that i'm heavily anticipating too.

Regarding the "Richmond Hill" I obviously had (too) high expectations because it didn't exactly impress me. It's not bad, but it's not one of the best either

I'm a huge Ace fan so I may tend to listen with a bias. I thought there were quite a few standalone songs that were great on that project.

I admit that I listened to the album only a few times because I didn't feel it. But "Breukelen Story" was a completely different filing for me
And I'm also big Ace fan

I dunno...most stuff I have heard this year has very little replay value. Gangrene album was weak as f**k. Apathy album has one song I love (Tick Tock) and a couple others I like. The rest was okay. Marciology inconsistent. Copywrite is whatever to me, with better beats could have been really good. I listened to the Mach Hommy again in my car and it was sounding much better, so that is perhaps a grower. My favorite s**t may have been that Crimeapple & Preservation from early this year. Lion vs. Panther is such a banger.
I have Spotify premium like most of you lol, so I will use this thread as an opportunity to explore some new stuff.
Someone on Philaflava (yes that site still has like 5 posters lol) was talking about that Hus & 9th Wonder, I've been meaning to check that.

My free trial of Apple Music expired and I was considering switching to Spotify, but I hate their UI. It’s so crowded and not user friendly seemingly. I buy music, but it is nice to have a free option to trial stuff on. Apple Music doesn’t have a free tier, but the UI is very straightforward. May just say f**k it and pay the $11.99 a month. Just tired of all these companies selling everything as a monthly subscription and getting bogged down with all these nickel and dime charges.
