Run The Jewels 2

The very first moment of this album is Killer Mike hyping himself up for this record in the usual, aggressive RTJ-way. From this moment onwards, you know what's up: "Run The Jewels' the answer, your question is what's poppin'?" I really admire El-P as a producer. The bass-boosted electronic beats complement the aggressive rapping style of this duo. In turn, this sets the right mood for the lyrics with Mike and El spitting a tirade of sociocritical, witty and politically radical bars. The best example is "Close Your Eyes", the track that hooked me with this collective. After stepping into the genre with Kendrick, RTJ really dragged me into hip hop with this album.

Lost In The Dream

The conservative traditions of folk, piano and acoustics layered with the liberal essence of wavy synth atmosphere and Granduciel's Springsteenesque vocal style brings together what I perceive as American music and spirit.

Piñata 

 Freddie Gibbs & Madlib

For rappers, it's state of the art to switch producers from track to track. This record shows how brilliant an album can turn out, if the rapper and the producer stick together for a whole album. Freddie Gibbs is one of my favourite rappers regarding flow and his gangsta-rap-lyrics accompany the sample-heavy beats by Madlib very well. "MadGibbs" is equally iconic as Madvillain.

El Pintor

Somehow, Interpol manage to paint with a darker black than anyone else. And on El Pintor, they manage to paint a even darker black than before, a really viscous dark goo. Not heavy though, but super sharp, as the yearning guitars are even more longing than on their breakthrough debut album Turn On The Bright Lights! The guitars of closing tracks Tidal Wave and Twice As Hard reverbe long through the night.

Moody electronic melodies and continuous beats, especially on the latter half, with hypnotising jazz instrumentation and characteristics make BBNG's first entirely self-written album the perfect gateway drug into the genre of the connoisseures.

Rating metrics: Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some charts can have several thousand ratings)
This chart is rated in the top 2% of all charts on BestEverAlbums.com. This chart has a Bayesian average rating of 90.3/100, a mean average of 92.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 93.1/100. The standard deviation for this chart is 7.7.
