    Top 10 actually makes sense even though I don't f--- with all these albums but there isn't enough trap on this s---.

    And I have no idea who some of these guys are, you could easily replace the Death Grips, Kno, Shabazz Palaces and others with Keef, thug & future

    I don't get why some people are trying so hard to include indie or underground albums on their lists. Are we gonna act like people listen to these cds more than Finally Rich or SS1?
