2010 GOON POLL results: The Top 30 Hip-Hop/Rap Albums of 2010

but like ... i dont think 'last king' is a very fully realized krit tape either. its def relatively amateurish, just got a great sense of momentum & sequencing

day has the best songs, night plays better front to back

2. Yelawolf - Trunk Muzik/Trunk Muzik 0-60

i think as a whole its less enjoyable to listen to front to back but his best songs are def on 'krit wuz here'

i have to revisit then cuz not much stuck with me and i adored the last king

i'll go with day > night too, though tbh i still don't really feel like i've fully digested either - i'm not sure i can even process double albums any more

can we just take a quick straw poll

day > night

xp yeah lex

it feels like a 5 seed won the ncaa tournament

not a bad thing

voted for 9/30

day > night but night has a bunch of the standout songs still

I've heard eleven of these actually, more than I expected.

i have to revisit then cuz not much stuck with me and i adored the last king

'moon and stars' 'gumption' 'children of the world' 'small as a giant' theres a few others i really like.

should we start posting ballots now or give the results some breathing room?

breathing room

imo

wanna know who the non-waka voters are

ha i remember "children of the world" being real corny for some reason but maybe i'm misremembering and projecting based on the title

naw it's super-dope

why were currensy records combined?

alright i was wrong that song is the shit

fav krit still either "hometown hero" or "big brother"

why were currensy records combined?

what do results look like if u uncombine?

i have no idea but they're different records arent they? what's the point other than to ensure he gets top 10?

yo i'm such a sucker for rappers spitting a few final bars a cappella at the end of their songs - love how "children" goes out

only reason Pilot Talk 1 & 2 has one shared entry and Mr. Zone 6 & Jewelry Selection don't is the latter don't have similar titles i guess?

this is my favorite roach gigz, but its on roachy balboa 2 that just came out this week, not the one on this list

"Neva Go Back" is another good one off the KRIT album.

I'm kinda sold on Can I Rap

yeah that's definite slap

the non-Waka voters were forks and zvook

didn't vote for waka, kanye or big boi

missed the leaks or release dates and after a few weeks of chatter there was no urgency to hear em somehow and i still haven't hear em except for big boi in other ppl's homes.

i'm a big fan of hard n the paint, o let's do it, fo yo sorrows & shine blockas so will prob be down with those records. otoh the stuff i've heard off the kanye doesn't interest me at all.

i assumed yelawolf was some p4k buzzband on sna

Yela was on 12/15 ballots

I guess I should get that altho I wasn't really getting why everyone what everyone thought was so special about his verse on the Big Boi album

jeesuz fuck that makes less sense than a deej post

I guess I should get that altho I wasn't really getting what everyone thought was so special about his verse on the Big Boi album

maybe just hearing him on a big boi record as opposed to being just some mixtape dude back in jan

I like his verse on the Big Boi album but it's.....different. He's really experimenting with his style there in a way that may or may not be successful in the eye of his beholder. He doesn't usually rap like that tho.
