A lot of great music and dope albums came out this year. Here are the top albums of the year according to The Block.
Since this is the last day of the year, I’m going to try and get all my Year End lists posted up today, so here goes my picks for top mixtapes of the year. The top spot (Kushe & OJ) should be a no-brainer. You can hit the red links for downloads if you need to. And before you all get to trippin’ about Big K.R.I.T. and K.R.I.T. Wuz Here not being on the list, I’m putting that on my Albums of the Year list.
This song was released on Monday as part of Swizz Beatz’s Monster Monday (or whatever he calls it) series. I’m still speechless as to how Alicia Keys ended up with Swizz Beatz (yeah, I’m hating). This is song is the dopeness though.

You guys may have seen this by now, but it won’t hurt to take a look at this again. Nicki’s on the Mar/Apr cover of the best magazine ever. I’m gonna get my copy asap. A couple more pics are in the cut.

This is different… O_o.
I know you guys saw my Top Songs of 2010 list and figured I was on some bullsh!t, but that list was constructed from more of a commercial standpoint, and with the idea that the Top 10 Most Underrated Songs list would follow. Now with this list, here are the Top 10 songs, in my opinion, that were the best songs of the year that didn’t get much airplay or fanfare, but for the most part, these are my favorite songs of the year.
