Ok. So about the order. The crap-ton of albums at the middle of this are all pretty interchangeable depending on the day. I have a love-hate relationship with the new Run The Jewels. Also love-hate the new Destroyer. We'll see how this all plays out at the end of the year. But this is how I'm ranking these now.
As for the 2 albums eanked highest, these guys separate the children from the adults this year.
The only reason I have an "honorable mentions" category is so people won't yell at me for not talking about Rina Sawayama.
