2011 is shaping up to be a larger than life year for music. On the horizon is a battle of the blonds featuring current pop princess Britney Spears and rising pop goddess Lady Gaga, Kid Cudi’s rock album and a shitload of new music from Kanye West. These are 11 albums we can’t wait to illegally download in 2011. I’m kidding about that illegal bit. If there’s anybody from the RIAA out there reading. Maybe.
2010 may have sucked when it came to substance and clear common sense. Chris Brown I’m talking you. And of course underage four loko lovers around the world. But at least we had a full 365 days of awesome music. I can’t say enough about the amount of exceptional material artists put out this year. Indie darlings like Theophilus London & J*DaVeY kept us content with the most ingenious tracks and music heavyweights like Kanye West & Cee Lo gave us albums. Yeezy’s twisted fantasy, Katy Perry’s sugar coated pop bliss, Gil Scott Hering’s rebel anthem, this is our soundtrack for 2010. Find out what albums made the top 9 of our list from Art Nouveau editor Kendrick Daye aka GreatEclectic and pop culture journalist Swiper Bootz.
