    Wave Gods is incredible. I recently gave it another chance and loved it. There wasn't a single moment where I felt like skipping a track.

    yeh that s----s me too a bit, i need time to digest an album but i just go at my own pace, knowing i'll have no shortage of projects in the future, i always just start in order tho tbh. I haven't done that much with Boosie though, album-wise I've started in order from when he got out

    Agree with a lot of this list but i seriously think Purple Reign and EVOL should be switched and I am eager to see what Desiigner will do and didn't mind New English, but I can't realistically say I think it's better than Untitled, especially with some of the mixing issues. Just me. But dope list. Top 10 is very solid.

    I much prefer evol to PR, feel like the production gives it the edge.

    New english is ok and shows desiigners potential but just like UU it feels unfinished and sloppy

    He Has Risen by Smoke Dza and Tha Truth Part 2 by Trae are both really dope.

    Not sure how you feel about Crooked I, but Statik KXNG with Statik Selektah sounds pretty good from what I've heard of it.

    I think overall, the songs on EVOL may be of a more consistent quality, but I think the highs on PR are much higher than the highs on EVOL. Just my opinion though.

    I really like this factually ranked list. I've been told the Jazz Cartier & Imperial joint are good so one of these days I'll have to sit down with them.

    It's weird when you relisten to certain music, they may not sound so good initially but months later it ends up being better than you thought.

    Check out Terrace Martin's Velvet Portraits. Pretty nice listen. Not full blown jazz as it has funk elements as some nice soul/rap cuts as well.

    The Avalanches' Wildflower is my favourite album across all genres but it's got some hip-hop on it as well. Camp Lo, Danny Brown (on two tracks) and MF Doom are on the album. The drummer from Tame Impala is sampled somewhere on here as well (both The Avalanches and Impala used to be on the same record label).

    If you want some instrumental recommendations I'm happy to provide some.

    Don't. Trust, it's s---. Even the pusha T feature is lackluster if you need proof. Royce is just not good at rapping
