I think Section 80 and Quiks are tied for first, but I voted Quik.

*waits for spice 2 to enter thread and say "you don't have  anonymous monotone underground rapper #258854 album, this thread is stupid*

dude that describes all but 5 names on this list. If he's going to list 15 other anonymous monotone underground rappers, he might as well include the ones I like, right? Let me guess though, you thought Snoop or Game had the best album of the year, since those are the only ones people were talking about outside of the internet.

Both of those albums were absurd garbage. They offended me on a personal level with there wackness.

from what i've heard its

#1 quik

and honourable mention to Murs, a great little album and my second favourite. i enjoyed both Murs rapping and Ski Beatz production on there, very cohesive and funky enough to keep me bobbin. but quik's production is on a whole other level to most music.

Luv Of My Life for track of the year :bandit:

You should break it up into major releases vs minor/independent

Usually big difference in sound and production... Half those weren't even on my radar but maybe I'll give em a shot.

Nah, the west coast already is a minority imo, so it doesn't matter if I split it into Snoop / Game / E-40 vs. the rest. It's only about how good the music is on these records, no matter if there's more money behind the production or not. Overpolished production doesn't necessarily mean good music.

I didn't vote, but the only albums I played more than once were these...
Quik - book of David
Ab-soul - longterm mentality
Lil b - I'm gay
Jay rock
Kendrick

Gotta go quik 1 and ab-soul second. Quik is my guy from day one, great album great beats, lyrics soso on some cuts. Absoul great album, want more from that dude

Three by my count, but close enough.
