Angel Wilson
Hell no, 2010-2015 are the best, after that it’s only a tragic mess
Charles Hernandez
I second 2011 for best year

Care to say which albums made 2018 one of the best? Gotta say, the popular opinion seems to be 2012 and 2016. Seems like a normie thing to me, and OP certainly could have picked better than Untitled, Unmastered and TLoP.

I don't see how You Want it Darker and Skeleton Tree are any deeper than Blonde and AMSP

2016 was the best but not because these records
Brandon Wilson
2018 was mostly shite
Jackson Sullivan
well all of the top 4 were written with death in mind; Bowie and Cohen knowing they were about to die soon, Nick Cave's son falling off a cliff and Thom Yorke's divorced wife dying of cancer
Aaron James
I haven't listened to them so idk
Christopher White
I Love Kanye is unironically the most introspective song ever made
Anthony Roberts
>Bowie was dying
>Nick Cave's son died
>Thom's breakup and the eventual death of Rachel
>Leonard Cohen was old and ill
>don't know bout blond
>Danny was suffering from mental illness and addiction
>It's just demos and leftouts from previous records
>Kanye has been suffering from mental illness for a while, and it peaked --at least publicly-- during those years
2016 is definitely one of the best years. 2015 was amazing too, and probs my fav. I'm hyped about 2019 still, even though it's been a little bit slow
Carson Anderson
the entirety of the top row is related to death and it's just coincidental that they all came out the same year
Ryan Collins
2016 is my favorite year for music
plus we got bottomless pit and the tribe album
Josiah Butler
I can't give away muh hidden gems but it was just a really consistent year. I've listen to a ridiculous amount of releases from 2018 and I'm still finding good shit
Noah Martinez
Rec me some of your favorites, user. There's a lot of good releases from 2018, but it still feels a little bit weak for me.
The two Eiko Ishibashi albums and the one by Kelly Moran are among my favorite obscure albums of that year, if you want some recs of something you might or might not have heard yet.
Zachary Ortiz
give me the gems

2016 was way more memorable and exciting than 2018

I should also add there were a good few releases that were popular here that I loved too. didn't think it'd be worth mentioning them though but stuff like MGMT and Mid Air Thief were great
how?

>>don't know bout blond
Frank ocean was stuck on a label and released another album which was really a ?? Hour livestream on Apple Music, endless, and since that fulfilled that contact he released blonde independently retaining those profits while still getting a 20+ million payout from def jam

Top row is all dying men and men dealing with deaths in thier lives.
Bottom row is overhyped boring nigger garbage

This dance
This dance
It's like a weapon
It's like a weapon
Of self defense
Self defense
Against the present
Against the present
Present tense
I won't get heavy
Don't get heavy
Keep it light and
Keep it moving
I am doing
No harm
As my world
Comes crashing down
I'm dancing
Freaking out
Deaf, dumb, and blind
In you I'm lost
In you I'm lost
I won't turn around when the penny drops
I won't stop now
I won't slack off
Or all this love
Will be in vain
