Jeet 2021
The stuff that I loved and kept in rotation all year. |
1 | | Kenny Mason Angelic Hoodrat: Supercut
"Losing my lenience, moving with meaning
It’s two of me, and truthfully, this duality the root of my genius
Angels is hoodrats, depending on the angle you look at
Hanging with crooks, black straps came with the book bags"
Album of the year no contest. Unique production and this kid just rapping his ass off over every beat. If you dont listen to Kenny Mason, you need to fix that ASAP. |
2 | | Isaiah Rashad The House Is Burning
I waited 5 years for this guy to drop another album, and it did not disappoint at all.
Headshots has the best hook of any song this year. Whole album is smooth as butter. |
3 | | PinkPantheress To Hell With It
This album is 18 minutes long and there is not a single second of filler on it. Catchiest album of 2021 |
4 | | SeeYouSpaceCowboy The Romance of Affliction
Its like they took their last 2 albums and smushed them together and sprinkled some 2000s era core elements into that bitch. Love it. |
5 | | Vince Staples Vince Staples
"We dyin broke or live with broken hearts."
This guy just doesn't miss. |
6 | | Rochelle Jordan Play With The Changes
R&B album of the year |
7 | | Injury Reserve By The Time I Get To Phoenix
"I felt loss but a hole like this I never coulda imagined
Your pattern's still in place, algorithm's still in action"
Amazing project. RIP Groggs |
8 | | JPEGMAFIA LP! (offline)
This guy just doesn't miss (2) |
9 | | headcave 2
metalcore ep of the year. |
10 | | Every Time I Die Radical
A huge step up from Low Teens. Their 2nd best album right behind New Junk. |
11 | | Drake Certified Lover Boy
Best album Drake's dropped since 2017. Champagne Poetry, Fair Trade, Race My Mind, Get Along Better, Fair Trade, 7 AM on Bridle Path, TSU, all top tier Drake tracks. This is what Scorpion should've been. |
12 | | Phabo Soulquarius
2nd best R&B album of this year. Smooth as butter. |
13 | | Magdalena Bay Mercurial World
Best pop album of the year. Follow The Leader, You Lose, and Secrets are just *chefs kiss* perfect |
14 | | Vildhjarta MÃ¥sstaden Under Vatten
Another album that I waited years for and it delivered. Love when that happens. This shit is all I ever needed from them. |
15 | | Chief Keef 4NEM
Bitch Where has to be one of the hardest opening songs to any album of 2021. Keef sounds so aggressive on this. |
16 | | Dying Wish Fragments of a Bitter Memory
the vocalist sounds like she's out for blood on this album. |
17 | | Hiatus Kaiyote Mood Valiant
Smooth as butter (3) |
18 | | Zack Fox Shut The Fuck Up Talking To Me
Truthfully shocked at how hard this goes. Did not expect Zack Fox of all people to drop a heater. |
19 | | Kaytranada Intimidated
Kaytranada doing what he does best, just making shit you can groove to. And that's really all I need from him. |
20 | | Maxo Kream Weight Of The World
Would be cool to hear Maxo and Tyler collab more often. DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS ALBUM, MAXO IS FIRE. |
21 | | Tkay Maidza Last Year Was Weird, Vol. 3
Tkay always delivers. Check out her cover of Where is My Mind. She's awesome. |
22 | | Knocked Loose A Tear in the Fabric of Life
This shit just bangs. I heard someone on here describe this band as caveman metal and it made me die laughing but that's exactly what these guys make, and it just goes sooooo hard lmfaoooo |
23 | | Bilmuri 400LB BACK SQUAT
This is a fun lil album. Not even sure how I discovered this Bilmuri dude but I'm glad I did. Roidmage is one of my favorite songs of the year. |
24 | | Born of Osiris Angel or Alien
This shit just bangs (2) |
25 | | Static Dress Prologue...
Honestly this project has like 3 amazing songs and the rest are just dumb interludes, but I've been listening to this band all year long so I felt obligated to give them a spot on the list. |
26 | | Ojerime B4 I Breakdown
This came out last year but IDC, it didn't get enough love and nobody on here listens to her so I'm just gonna show her some love cus this album is just too good to be slept on. |
27 | | Turnstile Glow On
This was cool. |
28 | | Doja Cat Planet Her
Hot Pink was way better but this is still fun and my girl loves it, and Doja is fire so she makes the list. |
29 | | Halsey If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power
Never really expected to have Halsey on my year end list, but here we are. Her and Trent/Atticus make a great combo. |
30 | | Porter Robinson Nurture
Such a feel-good album. The live performance set he did for this rules too. |
31 | | Invent Animate The Sun Sleeps, As If It Never Was
Great ep with a very powerful theme.
HONORABLE MENTIONS:
Daisy - S.O.M.E EP
Robb Bank$ - Few Pillz
Tyler The Creator - Call Me If You Get Lost
AKTHESAVIOR - Hiatus |
