Here are my favorite albums that I was able to hear and pass judgment on this year. Unfortunately, some of the really big records that were released I wasn't able to get around to. These were my favorites though. Not necessarily the BEST of the year, but definitely my 10 favorites I think people should hear. I am going to do something a little different and make another list of my favorite movies of the year. Due to a few friends with questionable connections, I have been lucky enough to see some movies that haven't yet been released where I live. So, following my list of music will be my list of 15 of the years best movies.

8. Fucked Up - The Chemistry of Common Life
7. Q-Tip - The Renaissance

4. Erykah Badu - New Amerykah: Part 1 (4th world war)
3. Son Lux - At War with Wall and Mazes
