[2013] Rap/Hip-Hop/ R&B Thread

Killer Mike had the best rap album from last year.

Earl Sweatshirt is my most anticipated for this year.

Thank you for mentioning Krit's album and mixtape. I think so many people slept on both of them over the past year. I thought both were two of the best albums and mixtapes of the year. I'm in "agreeance" with your list.
I've been sleeping on that Freddie Gibbs but finally got on board towards the end of the year. Nothing needs to be said about Big Boi-just dopeness.
I also slept on that Phonte but it was good stuff. The Kendrick album was just good/okay imo.

Re. Cole's album, I wonder why the high hopes after the way the debut album was. Are we thinking he's gonna come out swinging after the way the debut album went? Shouldn't expectations be lower?

 

Finally got Long.Live.A$AP... great album.

Dope as F***, I know we are three weeks into 2013 but my early favourite for mixtape of the year.

Guy is a great artist. There are people that were disappointed with his album myself included, but think it was still a good album. Was hoping more for Kanye West College Dropout. It turned out to be Graduation. Think that he is one of the artists that the mix-tape shows off a truer self. Hoping that the Lamar/Cole CD is ridiculous.

Anybody really liking the ASAP CD? Was not blown away but think it was alright. The thing that gets me with him is that he is always out shined in songs that have other rappers. Maybe it's just me. Like him but do not think he will be New York's savior. Especially when you have people like Joey Bada$$. Just started listening even though I've known about him for awhile. Just a stupid name.

But since it's early in the year for ton of albums I'm going to put a couple from last year that has been in my rotation.

Will get **** for this song that has 2 chainz but in my mind its Tity Boy. The Game's CD is not great.

I'm looking forward to Slim Thug and Zro's album, "A King and a Boss,"coming out early 2013. You probably heard this song a lot on 97.9

Brilliant. Wish I could rep you. Lecrae should rap "I'm a Saint" in New Orleans for the pregame Super Bowl concert.

 

Quite old, but he should be dropping this year... I hope.<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/M9eSD3d9dI4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
