I fucked with 4 out of 5 of those so I will def check the 5th one. I purposely left out NorCal albums because that's a separate list for me

 

[S.L.A.B]

Oddisee - The Beauty In All
Ghostface Killah - 12 Reasons To Die
Big K.R.I.T - King Remembered In Time
KA - The Night's Gambit
Tech N9Ne - Something Else (Didn't like it at first but it's actually one of the better Tech albums)
Danny Brown - Old (Only the 1st CD)
Ransom & Statik Selektah - The Proposal (Never really like Ransom but his flow sounds a lot like Nas on this, don't sleep if you haven't picked it up!)
R.A The Rugged Man - Legends Never Die
Jon Connor - Unconscious State
Earl Sweatshirt - Doris
Trae The Truth - I Am King (Mixtape)(I felt I was done with Trae's music but this was dope)

Some albums better than others but overal these were dope albums/projects that I can think off at this moment.

 

[infinity]

Damn, how could I forget 12 Reasons To Die. That was one of Ghost's better albums in many years. Added to list

I enjoyed Doris and Wolf but they didn't blow me away

The Proposal was the best thing I've heard from Ransom. I pressed repeat many times with that one

KA chooses strange beats; they are mostly loops without kicks and snares which makes it hard to get into but he's an artist so it deserves some respect

I can't get into Trae at all. His whispering flow is so garbage

I want to like Tech N9ne but I just cant. I was a huge fan in 03/04, but most of his production choices are so bad these days
