pop and electronic been amazing tho

indie has been decent

rap is good if you enjoy griselda or some more indie releases (its been ok)

yeah bruh I really become less and less a hiphop listener every year that go by its crazy

these other genres really carrying music

For me personally the lil nas ep is trash old town road was aight but that doesn’t remotely make the year good

The box really was this year that it blew up and even that is whatever we’ve had multiple albums better than that from young artists this year already

Bandana was fine but that’s one project

I think you’re focusing too much on eventization and no s*** there hasn’t been much eventization in an election year, pandemic year, Kobe death year, etc

No one gives a f*** about rap drama when people out here trying to survive a pandemic b

Musically it’s been much better than 2019

I'd take Bandana over any rap project that's dropped this year but overall 2020 has a deeper bench

King's Disease and Miles saved this year for me tbh

DONDA should've dropped tho

It’s crazy that we’ve had a f***ing global pandemic for most of this year and I’ll still argue that this year was better and more memorable for rap than 2019

We have four more months b

Talk to 'em.

there are about 4 actually good albums in this list

trapped on cleveland 3 has 3 good songs on it

what albums

A bunch are eh but there’s a good catalogue there

Especially compared to 2019 and considering that’s only 2/3 into the year

eternal atake

starz was alright, had like 4-5 duds on it though

other albums i would consider genuinely good are wunna and anyways (nudy)

s*** you listed like dark lane, eternal atake, the goat, durk album - it doesn't get much more average or unremarkable than these

Old town road was cool when it first started blowing up. Eventization is what makes years memorable though. I like that term lol.

That’s what I’m getting at, sure the music output is still solid albeit it’s more so confined to smaller artists. I think a lack of major mainstream releases has made an impact. Like There hasn’t been that hip hop album or moment that makes you go goddamn this s*** is nice and has everybody chatting about it for weeks.

Came and went

Like we still have a decent chance of getting

Kanye album
Cardi album
Drake album
Kendrick album

Probably some other s*** too

Also we got that Gambino album

Not amazing but pretty nice

Need a revolutionary Kendrick album tbh

I don't buy into the mainstream hype of mentioning Cardi among the greats lmao

Circles
Barnacles
Pray for Paris
Alfredo

2019 was similar, had some good albums like ignorance is bliss, long live mexico, bandana but nothing i would consider genuinely GREAT or 'classic' if you will

aside from these, a whole bunch of albums, like this year, i would never care if i listened to them again

I think After Hours was a moment
Same with My Turn and Eternal Atake

Plus we still have some potential high profile releases otw
