    a few notes I'll make

    - hurt and confused about Jeffrey being so low

    - just as upset about a lack of Radiohead

    - 2 Chainz nearly cracking the top 10 is deserved

    - I just got around to that Angel Olsen this month and it's climbing up my list as well. Props too on Puberty 2, one of the year's most underrated albums

    - low placement of Lemonade and Blonde feels very hostile, tbh

    - seeing Anti that high was upsetting at first but the more I think about it the less mad I am

    B6 is plenty consistent, it's a good front-to-back listen, I just don't like (most of) the songs as much as Jeffrey's. Ask me to choose which one I want to hear and it's going to be Jeffrey 7 or 8 times out of 10.

    Of his 2015-2016 projects, SS2 has held up the worst (meaning its value has depreciated the most for me); I'm Up is and always was the worst.

    3. Wave Gods - French Montana
    4. 22, a Million - Bon Iver

    6. Atrocity Exhibition - Danny Brown
    7. Malibu/Yes Lawd! - Anderson Paak
    8. Jeffery - Young Thug
    9. The Life Of Pablo - Kanye West

    true, his performance on that tape was def better but project for project i gotta give the edge to B6.

    either way, those two projects are without a doubt his best solo efforts.

    i dont like i'm up or ss3 at all idk why everyone else does.

    1. b6
    2. jeffery
    3. SS1
    4. SS2
    5. I'm Up
    6. ss3

    for me
