1. Life Is Good....clearly ahead of anything this year for me.
2. Good Kid, Maad City...a distant second for me.
3. Control System....I really enjoyed this album could have been my second.
4. Rare Chandeliers...I'm a big Bronson and ALC fan. I expected more but what we got was still
5. Baby Face Killa...I hate putting mixtapes in my top albums for the year but this is that good.
6. Food & Liquor II...I'm actually not a big Lupe fan but this was very dope.

8. Trophies...A big fan of both OC and Apollo Brown. Album is excellent. Real hip hop over here. People slept on this.
9. Mic Tyson....I'm a big Sean Price fan. I was disappointed on how this turned out but it still remains my ninth favorite album.
10. Habits & Contradictions..TDE is really running L.A.
