You’re right about this so I won’t fight you

7/10 pretty good but gonna end up getting overhyped in retrospect like 2016

Tyler, Kendrick, and Charli dominated this year which was great and a lot of other artist released some good music but there were only a hand full of albums i was in love with

better than 2023 marginally

election years usually suck total f***ing ass, and distract us from other things happening in the world

6.5/10

All the best stuff has been dropping in the 4th quarter thus far. Feel like there was a big drought at the peak of the Kendrick/Drake beef

5/10

7/10

Beyonce, Tyler, Future, Glo, Q, & Billie Eilish had solid projects. I haven't gotten around to hearing Brat but I hear thats great also

Classic beef / records

I really enjoyed some of the less mainstream releases also (Doechii, Lupe, Rapsody)

Beyonce has SOTY so far (to me, Kenricks a close second) but there's a bunch of singles Imma listen to for a while

If Drake, Roddy, Soul, Rocky and Cole come through this'll go down as the best year this decade easy. It's not touching classic years like 1994 or 2001 but thats ok. I'm not even sure if its possible to have years like that again, given the current state of the music industry

Loved the Mkgee and Mustafa albums

Shadbowbox by Mavi is mad underappreciated and maybe the best album this year.

We also got #RichAxxHaitian which is phenomenal

This made realize that 2015-2016 run was legendary

It was a good year for music

Music 9/10

Overall 6/10

You're leaving off a certain rapper from Atlanta who dominated and helped Kendrick dominate this year.

Them Future albums was mid honestly

a lot of great music this year

I had a pretty good year, especially as a Kendrick fan. Kanye should've stuck to 1 release though

quite a few memorable rap songs this year but nothing I heard from the other genres was hitting. other than that Cindy Lee opus.

Brat and GNX run this year .

Stunk to high heavens

Easily the best year this decade musically

TDE hard carried
