I think it should be eligible. As far as I can tell, Frank Ocean only released a mixtape previously which isn't an album so it should be eligible.

I still can't decide though... Spirit of punk and rebellion against their label or just stupid and immature publicity stunt? Would need to know more about the relationship between them and the label to say that.

Honestly, that whole thing they did with Epic andd just their attitude around this whole album has really made me like them a whole lot less. It really does come across as juvenile.

I love that Merriweather Cock Pavillion picture though. It bends my mind.

Hip-hop is killing it this decade in general.

Best year ever for hip-hop in my opinion. It's obviously too early to know whether people will still be listening to the albums released this year in years to come, but I think GKMC, Reloaded and R.A.P. Music will definitely stand the test of time. Nas released one of his better albums (not quite Illmatic, but certainly on a level with It Was Written and Stillmatic); Blu & Exile released a very worthy follow-up to Below The Heavens; Action Bronson & Party Supplies mixtape has a real Madvillainy vibe about it that I think will stand it in good stead; K.R.I.T.'s album was seen as underwhelming but I think it will go on to be held up as a great example of southern hip-hop in years to come; Sean Price, Billy Woods and KA all released uncompromising underground albums that I imagine will age well; any new El-P album is always an event, and Cancer For Cure certainly didn't disappoint; Murs & 9th Wonder finally released an album that lives up to their first collaboration; (relative) newcomers Rapsody, Domo Genesis, Joey Bada$$, SpaceGhostPurrp and GrandeMarshall all had great releases; Lushlife's album will age well; the Black Hippy collective had an awesome year and - though Kendrick's release overshadowed them - ScHoolboy Q and Ab-Soul's records won't be forgotten in a hurry; veterans E-40 (on his own and with Too $hort) and Masta Ace released very strong albums this year; Apollo Brown & Guilty Simpson's album will age well, as will The Alchemist's Russian Roulette. Even Curren$y had a memorable release (that's no slight on Curren$y, just that all of his mixtapes/albums are usually pretty indistinguishable from one another). It's too early to tell how these releases will be remembered, and the truth is that many of them could just be turn out to be a flash in the pan. But I can't think of another year that's been this good for hip-hop that I can remember.
