RTJ2 has been held up as one of the best hip-hop albums of the past decade, and for good reason.
Young Thug and his weird, high-pitched, half-squawked AutoTune delivery was one of the sounds of 2014.
Shmurda is adamant the connection between Chicago drill and what he is doing is minimal, but it’s still an unrepentant story of selling crack, making money off of it and then shooting people who stand in the way of that goal.
A-Trak was added to the mix and supplied a brilliant throwback track that didn’t feel out of place in 2014.
Blue Suede by Vince Staples was his most impressive work this year, with a shrieking sound effect offset by rib-ticking bass topped off a flow as eloquent as it is unflinching.

Kept meaning to listen to it. Run the Jewels is entering my list with a lot of hype to live up to.
