whoa Japandroids at 11 and Kendrick Lamar at 1? didn't see that coming. also lol to Grimes being a top 10 album.

[Drew Beringer]

so did P4K not count NO LOVE DEEP WEB an official release? surprised it wasn't on the top 50 at all.

Super Rich Kids? Really dawgs?

probably because it has an Earl verse

[Drew Beringer]

was Converge in the top 50?

I believe Ryan (the CEO/founder) gives the score.

like I said to Jake, that's so weird since it got BNM 8.6

that's kinda odd to me, but again it happens with a lot of different publications lists.

I don't think either of Death Grips' two albums were top 10 material, but I liked NLDW a little bit more than TMS.

I think it's dumb, but again it's just a rumor I've heard from other people from other publications who I trust. either way I don't care.

Of course I'm bias(ed? I always forget) because I love the dude but Bada$$ short blurb in the HM section is great




And Trust got the shaft, bigtime

that Bada$$ tape is the truth, definitely made my top 50

weird, I thought I saw it but again I'm going insane tonight.

that's a damn shame. metal is so under-represented on P4K, especially in a year with a bunch of killer releases.
