In hip hop? well.. maybe not hacks.. but good artists? There's maybe a few good hip hop artists making big money that are coming out with top 10-20 albums of the year.. **** even Atmosphere is on the new CL album mentioning how he doesn't think he's made it big today.
I rated well over 50 albums last year in hip hop and the only semi big names in the top 20 were The Roots and Atmosphere (and Black Milk & Madlib as a stretch). In my bottom 10 were artists like Lil Wayne, T.I., The Game, & Common. Of course that's just my opinion on what was good and what wasn't, but still.
