This is a top 116 list. It took a REALLY long time to make. Hope you like it! Kicking off with the honorable mentions:
- The Bird And The Rifle by Lori McKenna- Good album, but I'm biased towards country.
- Sit Still Look Pretty by Daya- Would be on the list, if she knew how to write good lyrics.
- CRYBABY by Melanie Martinez- Would be on the list if I didn't want to overexpose this woman as much as her fanbase does.
- Run The Jewels 3 by Run The Jewels- Would be on the list if I didn't consider it a 2017 album.
- 4Ever- Prince: Would be my #1, but I'm not sure if it's official.
- 24k Magic by Bruno Mars: Eh, it grew on me
- VIEWS by Drak-- just kidding!
- Splendor And Misery by clipping and Egnomaniac by Kongos- It was a race between these albums and an EP for the #116 spot. I gave it to the EP, because it's gonna be so funny to watch Wonkey get triggered after seeing two of his favorites losing to...
