We’re finally here, after 3 804 votes we can now declare album of the year according to the Has it Leaked community. You nominated and voted – And while it’s impossible to cram in the number of albums we all appreciated – We at least tried. It gets especially difficult when all genres clash and it becomes futile to make sense of it all. Hiphop artist also tend to drop their albums fashionably late as well. At least Childish Gambino kind of sucked (Edit: I spoke too soon) and RTJ decided to release RTJ3 next year (Edit: I spoke too soon again). And the number one entry was a close call, unlike 2015.
And since we probably didn’t even nominate your favorite album (I forgot to nominate the album I was featured on), please feel free to drop your own Top 10 albums in the comment section. I will drop my own personal list over at The Only Music Podcast, next week.
Thank you all for making this year’s list! I think you all are wrong, because The Avalanches clearly made the best album this year. But as long as everyone is as passionate about their choice, I’m good.
– Mojib
5. Chance The Rapper – The Coloring Book Mixtape
4. David Bowie – Blackstar
3. Radiohead – A Moon Shaped Pool
2. Kanye West – The Life of Pablo
1. Frank Ocean – Blonde

3. The Weeknd – Starboy
4. Pierce the Veil – Misadventures
5. Dance Gavin Dance – Mothership
The Dillinger Escape Plan
David Bowie – Blackstar
Nine Inch Nails – Not The Actual Events
Anderson .Paak was sooo close to making it to the Top 5
WOOHOO lol… well it didn’t win but at least my push to get the album even onto the list was successful! And it did get some votes. So cheers to the rest of my Korn Kids out there who agreed! “Korn – The Serenity of Suffering (3%, 39 Votes)” :P
Haha, I don’t even know who Frank Ocean is… But I guess I will have to heck him out?
Just goes to show that any and all Best Of lists of any kind should be done AFTER the year is out.
RTJ3 releases early, I’m pretty sure I’d switch them out for one of my choices haha
Tomorrow is Yesterday by The Arcana is the best album from my 2016!
It’s 2017 now….
Yes, indeed. I think that Tomorrow is Yesterday will probably be my favourite album of 2017 as well. Have you heard it yet?
Haha i totally read that comment wrong when I replied to it. I’ll definitely check them out though :)
I’m so glad. I think that it is a really groovy album!
everyone slept on james blakes album
