2013....the year in hip hop....

[KoolGenius]

07 was the last decent year but the last great year in hip hop for me was 2006, plenty of great albums with replay value.

This year has been weak...off the top of my head these are the albums I've enjoyed this year....
Black Milk - No Poison No Paradise
Natti - Still Motion
Run The Jewels - Run The Jewels
Deltron 3030 - Event II
R.A The Rugged Man - Legends Never Die
Troy Ave - New York City:The Album

Might've missed a few but the Roc Maricano album is the album I'm checking out next

Seems so from my perspective but I haven't been paying much attention to what has been coming out. 'Twelve reasons to die' and 'Czarface' are the only two great albums I've listened to and Ill Bill's latest was below his standard but not awful by any means. Haven't listened to anything else enough to make a proper judgement. Deltron II & Gor Elohim might prove great upon multiple listens.

Future releases might still redeem this year though. What's still slated for a 2013 release?
Marco Polo, Marciano, G Rap, Step Brothers; Am I missing anything?

both step brothers & everything Roc's dropped is fire. Run The Jewels......

2013 was not that bad of a year.
