Off the top without thinking about it too much

2005 > 2015 > 2010 > 2020

2005 > 2015 >2010 > 2020

2005 and 2015 rank the highest for me personally.

My own take is that 2015 had the best hip hop projects all around but 2005 had better projects across all genres including a lot of great hip hop.

2020 was ass musically and in real life

2015 was f***en stacked gaddam

2005 > 2010 > 2015 > 2020

2010 (fucking stacked with concept albums ) > 05> the rest

You should probably sit this one out then since you were 5 & 10 in 05 and 2010

2015 and 2005 both have my two highest rap projects of all time with Late Registration #1 and TPAB #2 so they gotta be top 2 for me

I almost made 2010 2nd but looking at it it's weak overall but has a set of really high high projects

If it was more even'd out it would be 2nd place for me

Yeah yuu might want to look at 2010 again

Do you not see android sitting right there

I have

Many albums are just ok especially in Rap n RnB - then electronic, rock or pop the artists have better albums the next year or two like Beach House or Janelle etc.

Electric Lady better

2020

It would not exist without the aforementioned record

the best thing this guy could think of for 2015 was megan trainor
