    As much as I liked The Hazards of Love, it just doesn't measure up to Picaresque or Castaways and Cutouts. Kind of disappointed, actually.

    Attention Deficit wasn't that great, Only great song on the Kid Cudi album was Make Her Say and Blueprint 3 was good but not Album of the Year good

    Oh shits, I didn't know that Mos Def had a new album out. Is it the greatest thing ever? Should I rush out and get it, or should it wait until it becomes a 5 for $20 type deal?

    Also, Feed the Animals is the greatest

    How was Swoon compared to their debut? I never listened to it.

    Also, best album of the year is hands down:
