Each year the one and only king of the Boom Bap selects his top albums of the year on the following premise...
"I judge my list based on dope beats, dope rhymes, scratchin’ and cutting, creativity, uniqueness, originality, and overall packaging of the product’s integrity. I don’t care if you sold a million copies, that does not make it dope."
