Top 100 Music Albums of 2015 by travelful

2015 snapshot. holy fuck this decade just gets better and better...


Every album I listen to will be included on here, even if I hated it. You may also notice some higher rated albums in the comments, while some albums I hated are still featured in the chart. This is because I create my yearly charts as "snapshots" of the music scene from that year. From these I create my decade charts, where you will find no filler. Basically anything rated 60% or higher I recommend depending on your tastes.

Psychedelic east coast hip-hop

Remove tracks 10-15 and we got his best album. Despite the first half being full of bangers, the second half just drags on and honestly the album starts to overstay its welcome. I do think this album gets too much hate though from the critics, but it could definitely use a bit more quality control.
