Yung Lean - Stranger
66

There's plenty of filler on this album, but there's also some really solid songs that make up for some of whats lacking. Not Lean's best, but it shows progression and maturation in his sound.

fav tracks: Hunting My Own Skin (standout), Red Bottom Sky

Joji - In Tongues
57

Disappointing. The tracks that Joji has on his soundcloud from the past few years are stunning in many different ways, but his first commercial release strips all of those older songs down and removes all emotion, leaving a mere skeleton of an EP.

Grace VanderWaal - Just the Beginning
NR

It seems that most of you cannot appreciate this piece of art. I am a 103 year old bisexual man from the Philippines, and I can understand the level that Grace is on. Please be nice.

BONES - NetworkUnknown
69

Yea, it isn't as good as his previous efforts this year, but it still proves that Bones is consistent as hell.

Russ - There's Really A Wolf
11

How Much Xans And Lean Do You Have To Do Before You Realize You're A Fucking Loser

Scarlxrd - Lxrdszn
30

"Alternative Rock"

Soulja Boy - Crank That (Soulja Boy)
75

Soulja Boy influenced nearly 100% of the rap that you hear today.

Taylor Swift - Gorgeous
30

Cheesier than Taylor's old teen country pop. Where 1989 was directed towards the mainstream while retaining plenty of enjoyable songs, this new project is going in the worst direction possible.

Fever Ray - To the Moon and Back
50

Best tech death metal song of 2017

Future & Young Thug - Super Slimey
65

Nothing amazing, but nothing that was worse than average either. Super Slimey is a consistently solid album that takes no risks, but delivers what fans would expect on a Future and Young Thug collaboration project. I still believe that Thug is the better artist on this tape, but Future definitely has some moments where he outshines Thug. Overall an enjoyable project, but one that won't be played much a year or two into the future.

fav tracks: Killed Before (standout), No Cap, Drip on Me

Hopsin - Happy Ending
23

If this song wasn't about prostitution, it would actually be pretty fuckin listenable and catchy.

King Krule - The OOZ
46

Hate to be that guy, but...

MGMT - Little Dark Age
55

The song probably should have been cut by about 2 minutes, because holy shit did they repeat this chorus over and over. Sounds like a b side from Oracular Spectacular, very half assed and one-dimensional.

BONES - Failure
78

Most consistent rapper in the underground. 2017 has been an incredible year for Bones, always trying new styles of production and new flows, which are especially present on Failure.

Miley Cyrus - Younger Now
30

I did hip hop, so here are the best songs of the year so far that are NOT within the genre

Jonah Renna - Star Destroyer
Slowdive - Slomo
MC Boing - Dance Floor
Blanck Mass - Please
Xiu Xiu - Wondering, Queen of the Losers
Lorde - The Louvre, Supercut, Writer In The Dark
Pallbearer - Dancing in Madness
Brendan Byrnes - Fluorescent City
Richard Dawson - Ogre
Charli XCX - Emotional
The XX - On Hold

I have a LOT of catching up to do with this year's releases; haven't had a ton of time to really ... read more

St. Vincent - Pills
NR

gonna need a new kanye album soon

Lil Pump - Lil Pump
20

If you rate this below 60 then you just dont understand it. Plain and simple.

So yeah that was a fuckin joke but this album has a few songs that go pretty hard and are obviously not meant to be compared to anything other than other Soundcloud rappers. Still very shitty, but D Rose and Boss can be dope.

Antwon - Sunnyvale Gardens
77

This is the epitome of hip hop in 2017. With the style ranging from pop rock fusions, to emo rap (with Lil Peep), to upbeat pop trap, Antwon takes in some of the most popular subgenres of modern hip hop and makes them his own. The Matt Ox feature was pretty badass too.

fav tracks: Visine, 94s, Perrier, Ritas

A Boogie wit da Hoodie - The Bigger Artist
30

Really been trying to narrow down my favorite songs of 2017 recently. Since there's so many hip hop projects being put out, i'm going to do one exclusively for hip hop.

BEST HIP HOP SONGS OF 2017 SO FAR
Brockhampton - Sweet, Queer, Bump, Star
Bones - SeanPaulWasNeverThereToGimmeTheLight, Hi-Fi, ConnectingToServer
ZGTO - Whippin
Yung Lean - Red Bottom Sky, Hunting My Own Skin
Action Bronson - Hot Pepper
Wiki - Mayor, Nutcrackers
Secret Circle - Tonka Truck
Chief Keef - Whoa, Going Home

"@louisomahoney honestly man im just a hater. i still listen to queen and think it sucks, but I was looking for things to say to explain my dislike of the band when i was writing this and it isn't all fair. cant really explain why i dont like queen but i guess its because of the whole "rock opera" thing that comes off as corny."
