    Gonna limit this discussion to rap only for the most part (even though there's a ton of amazing albums released in other genres) but holy s---. Regardless of what you think about some of these albums, this might be one of the most star studded years in recent memory.
    Released/Confirmed Upcoming:
    Eminem - TDOSS
    Kanye- Vultures 1 and 2
    Kendrick - GNX (plus all the songs from the beef)
    Tyler, the Creator- Chromakopia
    Future- WDTY, WSDTY, Mixtape Pluto
    J. Cole- Might Delete Later
    ScHoolboy Q - Blue Lips
    Mac Miller- Balloonerism (Official Release)
    Drake- Beef songs + collab album with PND
    Denzel Curry- King of The Mischievous South
    21 Savage - American Dream
    Ab-Soul - Soul Burger
    JPEGMAFIA- I Lay Down My Life For You
    Lil Uzi- Eternal Atake 2
    Nas & DJ Premier- Untitled
    Possible but Unlikely
    The Weeknd- Hurry Up Tomorrow
    Playboi Carti- I AM MUSIC
    A$AP Rocky - Don't Be Dumb

    The Kendrick vs. Drake beef solidifies this year alone. That’s one of the biggest rap beefs if not the biggest rap beef ever. All the albums are the cherries on top

    Everyone came out swinging this year, hoping Carti can come and round it up and Juice’s team can make a sick a--- final album for him

    I don't check new s--- out as much as I used to, but there was only a handful of albums I really liked this year.

    So aside from the Kendrick x Drake beef there wasn't much going on for me. Especially, when you compare it to a year like 2015 where countless classics got dropped. Ab- Soul has my AOTY.

    Lupe and Rapsody had great albums. 2024 has been pretty nuts. f---ing LL Cool J put out a good album this year. Hope that Nas/Preem project makes it out soon. That'll make the year for me.

    Not even close

    Late 90s-early 2000s multiple years had way better albums than this year

    Nah. Even 2018 was better than this one. This year was Kendrick vs Drake beef and not more than that.

    your list has very good artists, legends of hip hop but the albums they released are not their best work
