The Wyoming sessions are EASILY the most interesting thing that happened in 2018 when it comes to hip hop (musically as a whole in my opinion but hey, that may be subjective).
Drake and J.Cole both dropped their worst albums. Horrible fucking albums. Painful to sit through. That shit Jay did with his wife wasn't good. The other high profile releases somehow came from Cardi B and Post Malone.. not good. Pitchfork was pretending to be into some Playboi Carti album so they wouldn't get called out for being out of touch, but there's only so many half assed bars that end with "uh" I can take before I overdose.
"Fucking your bitch, uh
She jump on my dick, uh
I fight with the clique, uh
I jump and I hit, uh
What the fuck do you say, uh
I love girls I'm not gay, uh"
UH UH UH UH UH. 8.6, BEST NEW MUSIC IN 2018, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!
Jay Rock did a Drake album better than Drake himself, however sadly, it went under the radar, even with a Kendrick cosign. Common dropped a great album as August Greene and nobody gave a shit. Saba's album.. really impressive, best newcomer in the game by far, but again, nobody cared. Didn't even make it to the XXL Freshmen list.
