Sorry for the abbreviation on Diddy, at first I was worried the formatting was going to screw up, but that was the only easily-abbreviable one, so I just said screw or and went for it

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Friday, 20 September 2019 00:15 (five years ago)

a list to my liking! plenty i need to hear alongside my many adored records here

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 00:28 (five years ago)

Shabazz!

✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 20 September 2019 04:10 (five years ago)

Dunderheaded oversight: Noura Mint Seymali's Arbina should be just underneath Roy Mkntgomery up there

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Friday, 20 September 2019 07:42 (five years ago)

And uh holy shit I just realized I forgot Blackheart too fml

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Friday, 20 September 2019 08:02 (five years ago)

Of the few I've heard, D'Angelo.

pomenitul, Friday, 20 September 2019 08:19 (five years ago)

Let England Shake just tops D'Angelo for me.

Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 20 September 2019 08:38 (five years ago)

weird selection. what pomenitul said.

je est un autre, l'enfer c'est les autres (alex in mainhattan), Friday, 20 September 2019 14:12 (five years ago)

I could be boring and predictable and go with Lamar but I'm going with that Fat White Family album. One of the best albums this year so far.

The World According To.... (Michael B), Friday, 20 September 2019 14:22 (five years ago)

kendrick vs. d'angelo is an internal argument i'll have to have before i make my own end-of-decade list. gonna go with peaking lights, cause i'm sure the other two will get plenty of love.

Mommy...can I go out and VAPE tonight? (voodoo chili), Friday, 20 September 2019 14:36 (five years ago)

Picking Horse Lords' Interventions, great album, awesome live. (Lamar, Belong, Peaking Lights and PJ Harvey are other favourites from the list)

willem, Friday, 20 September 2019 14:55 (five years ago)

Kendrick over PJ

Herman Woke (cryptosicko), Friday, 20 September 2019 14:58 (five years ago)

Weird that we haven’t seen any of these best-of-the-decade lists yet. We’ve only got three months to go, I doubt any contenders will appear in that time.

Mr. Snrub, Friday, 20 September 2019 15:25 (five years ago)

we should wait until 2029 for this decade to marinate obv

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 15:28 (five years ago)

nice to see some love for black bananas! depending on mood might have picked TPAB, arbina, peasant or black messiah but went for horse lords

ogmor, Friday, 20 September 2019 15:31 (five years ago)

no king krule, fuck this list. sorry drugs, nothing personal.

Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Friday, 20 September 2019 17:26 (five years ago)

No problem, sorry I never checked KK out

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Friday, 20 September 2019 18:06 (five years ago)

you're not missing much

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 18:08 (five years ago)

xp 2 albums-- which one do you think is better, Austin?

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Friday, 20 September 2019 18:08 (five years ago)

ehh, i was mostly kidding. . .but uhm, 6 feet beneath the moon i guess. the ooz is way different, so it's a case of you maybe liking one and not the other one.

archy also did a new place 2 drown, which is basically a hiphop record. besides the voice, it's really different than the king krule stuff.

lowercase (eric), Friday, 20 September 2019 21:29 (five years ago)

Retribution Gospel Choir's 3. My favorite record of the decade.

EZ Snappin, Friday, 20 September 2019 22:35 (five years ago)

Of these I really like Stara Rzeka, Le1f and Shabazz Palaces (as of listening to it today) and

*absolutely love*

Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly
Jute Gyte - Oviri
Jute Gyte - Ship of Theseus
The Armed - Only Love
Mastery - VALIS
Stabscotch - Uncanny Valley
D'Angelo - Black Messiah
Richard Dawson - Peasant
Kairon; IRSE - Ruination

(had certain other Dawn Richard and Clipping albums been here they'd have been on this list too)

I'd like to talk about the latter of these. I'll probably not vote for it (because...Ship of Theseus, folks), but it's so overlooked and so totally kickass. Here's a progged-out post-rock climax to end them all:

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 23:12 (five years ago)

This is my go-to track from Ruination but the album is phenomenal through and through

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 21 September 2019 04:05 (five years ago)

i have heard two of these albums

wasdnuos (abanana), Saturday, 21 September 2019 04:35 (five years ago)

A bunch of these made the ILX polls...there's a bunch that didn't but

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Saturday, 21 September 2019 05:18 (five years ago)

Of these I really like Stara Rzeka, Le1f and Shabazz Palaces (as of listening to it today)

I would probably single out "Endeavors For Never" as the big LJ from Black Up, the way it has kind of a musique concrete feel imo

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Sunday, 22 September 2019 04:21 (five years ago)

*the big LJ track, that is

the cretin hits the cast (Drugs A. Money), Sunday, 22 September 2019 04:22 (five years ago)

i have heard OF maybe two of these albums

#YABASIC (morrisp), Sunday, 22 September 2019 04:39 (five years ago)

voted for last train to paris

k3vin k., Sunday, 22 September 2019 06:22 (five years ago)

d’angelo is great but kind of drags, i’m about the tracks

budo jeru, Sunday, 22 September 2019 06:54 (five years ago)

budo jeru, Sunday, 22 September 2019 06:56 (five years ago)
