Bolded are wack. You can't sit here and tell me Back on My BS was better than Before I Self Destruct.

Italicized should be lower on the list

The top 10 of 08 looking strong but then it fell the fuck off. Haven't heard Elephant In The Room but Ego Trippin by Snoop belongs somewhere in the top 10. I still haven't heard that Ghostface album too for some reason and I'm a big Ghost fan..

and i almost forgot cormega-born and raised which is top 3 last year, krs1 and buckshot-survival skills, saigon-all in a days work, cnn-channel 10

even though its an experimental album its still banging, top 10 last year arguably top 5

I haven't heard a lot of those albums you're talking about.
