Is there another one coming? Might as well have just made an album at this point

 

I hope the next one she drops is country

 

If we’re following the three letter trend then we need an Emo? EP

2. Injury Reserve - By the Time I Get to Phoenix
3. Genesis Owusu - Smiling with No Teeth
4. Mick Jenkins - Elephant in the Room
5. Isaiah Rashad - The House is Burning
6. McKinley Dixon - For My Mama and Anyone Who Look Like Her
7. Brockhampton - Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine
8. Armand Hammer & The Alchemist - Haram
9. CZARFACE & MF DOOM - Super What?
10. Dave - We're all alone in this together

I did not like as much stuff from this year as I thought haha

 

Yeah I’m not in love with much

 

Fuck yes

 

Geez. Two songs in and it’s already so good. Can’t wait for that show man, just secured the ticket

 

Hell yes gonna be a good commute to work

 

This year's results are narrowed down from a total of 52 albums across 13 lists.

Records that just missed the cut / "honourable mentions":

Genesis Owusu - Smiling With No Teeth (21 pts., 3 votes)
McKinley Dixon - For My Mama And Anyone Who Look Like Her (20 pts., 4 votes)
Tyler, the Creator - Call Me If You Get Lost (20 pts., 4 votes)
Moor Mother - Black Encyclopedia of the Air (20 pts., 3 votes)

10. MIKE - Disco! (21 pts., 4 votes)
9. Backxwash - I Lie Here Buried with My Rings and My Dresses (24 pts., 4 votes)
8. R.A.P. Ferreira - Bob's Son (25 pts., 3 votes)
7. Boldy James & The Alchemist - Bo Jackson (26 pts., 5 votes)
6. Wiki - Half God (34 pts., 5 votes)
5. Isaiah Rashad - The House is Burning (36 pts., 6 votes)
4. Little Simz - Sometimes I Might Be Introvert (38 pts., 4 votes)
3. Vince Staples - Vince Staples (44 pts., 6 lists)
2. Mach-Hommy - Pray for Haiti (58 pts., 8 votes)
1. Armand Hammer & The Alchemist - Haram (59 pts., 10 votes)

Interestingly, the last few lists really shook the results up this year. Mach-Hommy was sitting at number 1 with a clear lead for most of the tallying until the Armand Hammer record inched in at the end. Isaiah Rashad was nowhere even near the top 10 and then ended at number 5. Wiki was in a pretty dominant position (a close number 2 after Mach-Hommy) until he only factored in an additional 2 points among the last six lists. R.A.P. Ferreira's other album had the most votes for a record that didn't make the final cut (4 votes, 13 pts.)

Thanks for playing, folks.

 

Damn shoulda voted to give Mach the top spot. Oh well, Haram is good too

 

Word! I have not checked out Little Simz so I guess that’ll be happening this weekend

 

I’ll check out Moor Mother.

 

Amazing album

 

Smh no Evidence

 

If we have 52, we could also drop a top 50? Would be cool to see

 

New Boldy James gonna be fucking up my EOY list lol.

 

Album is very, very good

 

honestly just psyched Simz made it and Owusu was in the honourables, great turnout for me

really gotta check some of that top 10 I haven't heard tho

 

Yeah new Boldy/Alchemist is another winner. Perfect length too

 

Hope these guys have a new album coming soon. Everything they've dropped in the last year or so has been some of their best work
