Pretty decent, I've heard well over half of it and the standard is pretty good tbf

Top 20 is pretty standard though, most hip hop lists would resemble it

Yeezus is the best album of the year, the most overrated album of the year and the most underrated album of the year.

Well it's got Foxygen, Deafheaven and Speedy Ortiz as best new artists, so I can't really say I trust these at all.

About time someone picked such a deserving number one. Pearl Mystic is probably the most unique and original album I've heard that came out this year.
