Also remember…this is my OPINION…so don’t act like a bitch if you feel like your album isn’t ranked high enough…or ranked at all (sorry J. I derived the top 50 and honorable mentions from there.
Out of the hundreds of albums I listened to this year, I was able to narrow it down to 109 albums that I enjoyed. Let’s get one thing straight though: I enjoyed EVERY album I’m about to discuss, regardless of where it is on the list. With that being said, I give you my top 50, along with a list of honorable mentions. Honestly, this tweet from the legendary journalist, Dart Adams, sums up how I feel about end of the year lists: Truthfully, there’s just too much great music out there…and it should be acknowledged. It just doesn’t sum up the sheer talent and amount of quality emcees that exist within the genre. I’ve never been super big on top tens, especially when the amount of music I listen to is increasing every year. ANKHLEJOHN and Vic Spencer are some other examples of rappers who dropped multiple quality albums in 2018. Roc Marciano dropped RR2: The Bitter Dose, Behold a Dark Horse, and KAOS with DJ Muggs, and each one held their own.
Sometimes multiple projects can mean less effort, but with these artists this was certainly not the case.
Several artists dropped multiple quality albums this year, which honestly is a hard thing to do. The underground scene in particular really showed out this year. In reality, I feel like most years are pretty decent music-wise as long as you have your ears in the right places. To say 2018 was a great year for rap music would be an understatement.
