    Going to catch a lot of flack for this but it’s a toss up between good intentions and ea for me. Conway album is probably a runner up. Navs album was so slept on imo, I love the guy so much

    this HAsthe best future verse in a while and navs part is comical

    After my show, I got three hoes and I signed three letters on all they ti--ies (NAV)

    Gonna toss a couple of names out there off the dome:

    Eternal Take - Lil Uzi Vert
    Savage Mode 2 - 21 Savage & Metro Boomin
    Bill Israel - Kodak Black
    Circles - Mac Miller
    Fetch the Bolt Cutters - Fiona Apple
    Alfredo - Freddie Gibbs & The Alchemist
    PTSD - G Herbo
    Future Nostalgia - Dua Lipa
    A Muse in Her Feelings - dvsn
    The Slow Rush - Tame Impala
    It Is What It Is - Thundercat
    Women In Music Pt.III - HAIM

    Looking at it, we've had a phenomenal year in music by all accounts. I'm positive I'm missing a few more. But my favorite this year has been oddly enough Jay Electronica's Act II. Idk what it is about this s---, but I haven't resonated with an album this much since Summertime 06.

    Non hip hop would be dvsn - A Muse In Her Feelings.

    HM:
    Spillage Village - Spilligion
    Boldy James & Alchemist -The Price Of Tea In China
    ETERNAL ATAKE!!!
    Conway - From King To A GOD
    Alma - Have U Seen Her
    Weeknd - After Hours
    Charli xcx - how I'm feeling now
    Featuring Ty$
    Gashi - 1984

    I keep changing my mind about this lol. Gotta throw Pop Smoke - Meet the Woo 2 in there. Might actually be my AOTY tbh.

    In no specific order:

    Pop Smoke - Meet the Woo 2 / s---t for the Stars
    21 Savage & Metro Boomin - Savage Mode 2
    Freddie Gibbs & Alchemist - Alfredo
    Freddie Gibbs & Boldy James - The Price of Tea in China
    Lil Uzi Vert - Eternal Atake
    Lil Baby - My Turn
    J Hus - Big Conspiracy
    Drakeo the Ruler & JoogSzn - Thank You 4 Using GTL
    Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony / Act II
    Young Dolph - Rich Slave

    too many HMs to name off the top of my head Durk, Conway, Future, Herbo, Polo G, Blu & Exile, Weeknd, Key Glock, Mac, Nudy, RTJ, Nas, Spillage Village, Gucci, clipping... and I'm sure more I'm forgetting about

    I would say Alfredo, but Eternal Atake literally set the deluxe edition release model for 2020.
