No Ill will to Hiding Places even after the Uboa defeat, and I found it the livelier and especially more lyrically potent release, so a vote for Woods and Segall

I didn't vote for Charli last round, and Hiding Places gets my vote again here.

A brutal matchup between two great albums. Hiding Places is the best rap album left in the tournament. But it's no match for Charli, which I'd choose over any rap album of 2019 save Bandana.

Gotta go with Woods & Segal here even if I do adore Charli as an artist and pop icon.
