2 Members: YoGrandpaIsFine, nightmare4taki

I see you, KC.

I think that K.C.'s(lol) album was the best. I love her voice and her songs.

And Mariah Carey's.

maaaaaan yous a window postaaaa
at the album of the year thread looking at posts you didnt post

Sufjan Stevens- Illinois

fantastic

, I should have cheated.

ROFL

5. 50 cent - The Masscre


Don't bash me, but when I work out and lift weights, I need something to get me motivated and pumped.

Rating: 4/5
Favorite Track : Im Supposed To Die Tonight


4. Common - Be


While not something you would turn your bass up to, Common most defintely gives off a positive vibe throughout the album.

Rating: 5/5
Favorite Track: Go ft. John Mayer, Kanye West

3. Kanye West - Late Registration


This is without a doubt his year, so why not give him a high rank on the list. He has everything from a party track all the way down to something mellow and relaxing.

Rating: 5/5
Favorite Track: Gold Digger ft. Jamie Foxx

2. Mariah Carey - Emancipation of MiMi


Some good tracks on this album. Yep Mariah's still got it.

Rating: 4/5
Favortie Track: We Belong Together <-- Hey im a sucker for the first singles

1. Jamie Foxx - Unpredictable


Okay I just got this CD, and I can't keep it out of my tape deck. Jamie has all kind of vocal range. He is about as close as it comes to Luther Vandross vocally. Not only can this man sing, but he can play the piano as well and the song he composed is a masterful piece. Overall I'm impressed with the album.

Rating: 5/5
Favorite Track: Can I take you Home, Wish You Were Here

Breakaway - Kelly Clarkson

Little Brother-The Minstrel Show

Spoon - Gimme Fiction (amazing album) or possibly "Silent Alarm" by Bloc Party.

Spoon wins in my opinion

Spoon is good, but I'm disinclined to call it the best album of the year, but maybe that's just because I thought "Girls Can Tell" was a much better album than "Gimme Fiction"? Ia bit over Spoon at the moment anyway. But then, Bloc Party gets on my nerves as well, but it's gotten great reviews.

"Ascendancy" by Trivium

Kanye West - Late Registration

I say Mariah Carey`s Emancipation of Mimi.
Great comeback.

ahhh.. i agree with you KC, goshhthat cd has got me spruung off of him. cheyah. i listen to can i take you home all the time. haha.. im listening to it right now. its a bomb song.

but album of the year. i think would have to be.... i`ll get back at you.!

lol shut the fword up

From Under The Cork Tree-Fall Out Boy

Fo' Sho'!!!

I've been on a bit of a Spoon kick recently, so Gimme Fiction is on the top of my list. I rather liked the Sufjan Stevens album, but I can't really get the hype around him right now. At the beginning of the year, I hated Bloc Party, but their album sort of grew on me and now its one of my top played albums.

Gah, I'm forgetting all about "Twin Cinema" by the new porngraphers as well.

Young Jeezy - Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101

DangerDoom- the mouse and the mask

Bloc Party grew, err, off me. I've progressively taken away songs off their album from my ipod, because I just can't listen anymore. Spoon is actually right on that edge too, but I know they'll come back in favor so I won't remove them.

The New Pornographers are actually my number one, definately. I got the album leaked about 3 months before it was released and immediately fell in love. Fantastic, and underappreciated. It's not just a pop album, it's amazing.

^ Hah, and to think I was one of those people who actually went out and GOT the album .
I think that "Twin Cinema" is the best, just looking over the variety of songs they had on that album. It kind of blew me away with the first listen. It's power pop at its finest.

Demon Days - Gorillaz

Your kidding me right? Jeezy is wack.

AYYYYYY!

Haha, lets listen to 20 tracks on how to cook and sell crack.

KanYe West- Late Registration
Little Brother- The Minstrel Show

This has been a boring year for music.

her space holiday's "the past presents the future" or stars' "set yourself on fire". i can't choose!

Female - Fiona Apple "Extraordinary Machine" It's an amazing piece of work. The cd isn't something you'd necessarily put on repeat, but the composition of the music combined with her lyrics truly makes for an extraordinary album.

Male - I'll go for a band - NIN. Trent Reznor is in top form.

Naw homie. Im not kidding, if I was, I wouldn't have posted.... You wack.

LETS GET IT!

THATS RIGHTTTT...PATTY CAKE PATTY CAKE MICROWAVE...____ DAMN IM PAID HAHA! IM SO COOL, AND IM SO FLY AND U? U SO NOT

I might nominate jeezy as a best new rap artist, but his ALBUM = ALBUM OF THE YEAR? Dont even think about it.

I would have, had my uncle not sent it to me for my birthday. I bought the bonus track off itunes, it that's any consolation.
It's truly an amazing album. It touched me more than any album had since "Give Up" or "Transatlanticism" (they may seem cliche now, but they were recognized for a reason). By the third track, I was practically in tears, which sounds lame and overly sentimental, ubt seriously.


I say Stars > Her Space Holiday


eh, "Tidal" and "When the Pawn..." owned it

Yeah, I agree. I think Stars is better than Her Space Holiday... just cause I only liked one song on The Past Presents The Future. ;x

Damn homie, don't trip. It's just MY opinion. Don't need to be a lil kid 'bout it. End of it.

I really didn't like Keyshia Cole's album. I bought it with the impression it was going to be amazing but... not for me.

Kanye West's and Trey Songz' were definitely two of the best for me.

And to break this mostly hip-hop/r&b trend we haave going on here: Jason Mraz - MR. A-Z. 'Nuff said.
