If I’m being honest, I kept it a full 100 in 2018 and I see no reason to change in 2019. Your move, haters. CONTENTS Instead, let’s argue about music! Here’s my Nfavorite albums of 2018. I’m not saying these were the best albums of last year, but just the ones I listened to the most. 5.) LIFE’S A TRIP by Trippie Redd This album is perfect for partying, being a Sad Boy, or just as some background music. Trippie has really found his singing voice, and this album is full of fun songs like “Bird Shit” and “Bang” as well as some emo trap bangers like “Taking A Walk.” 4.) ASTROWORLD by Travis Scott I mean “Sicko Mode” alone warranted a top five slot, right? The album is loaded with all the club bangers you want like the aforementioned “Sicko Mode” as well as “No Bystandards” and “Butterfly Effect.” Travis also is at the forefront of this futuristic trap rap revolution, and songs like “Stargazing” show just why he’s ahead of the pack. PEOPLE OF 3.) TABOO by Denzel Curry CAMPUS I was absolutely blown away with this album from start to I CAN FUNDRAISE ALL BY finish. Denzel’s versatile flows and his voice control were on full feature this album, and in my opinion, it should’ve earned MYSELF 20 him a few Grammy nominations. He can spit absolute fire on songs like “Sumo” or “Switch It Up,” and conceptually the album starts “lighthearted” and ends in a darker tone. PHOTO BY BRIAN KAISER 2.) Trench by Twenty One Pilots “What’s The Use” juxtaposes happy and melodic beats with And speaking of being blown away, holy shit this new Twenty sad lyrics about addiction, while “Ladders” paints a picture of a One Pilots album. The vocals on this are the best yet from the young couple with only a few hours to spend together and the duo. The beats, melodies, and arrangements are far superior perils of that type of relationship. Rest in peace, young king. to their last album. And the concept of this album dives into a wide variety of topics including mental health, the stress of Send me your hot takes, campus. And if not, we do have fame, mortality, and friendship. Almost every song is great on a great magazine here. Why not flip through a few pages and the album, but “My Blood” and “Cut My Lip” are my favorites. enjoy it? 1.) Swimming by Mac Miller Cheers, I’ve been a Mac Miller stan my entire life, so whenever he drops and album I’m all ears. And with his recent passing, there has become a whole new layer to his music to dig through FOOD AND BOOZE that creates a bigger picture. This album is perhaps his rawest showing of emotion where he deals with isolation, heartbreak, LET THEM EAT ART 36 drug addiction, and his quest for inner peace.
