The year is about to end. Whether you think 2017 was the worst year ever or just barely tolerable, some really good music was released. Clearly, I’m obsessed with Brockhampton (they’re on here 3 times…) because they make amazing music and they’re amazing people. Although most of these albums are Hip-Hop and R&B, I love a wide variety of music. From Kendrick Lamar to Khalid, here are twenty of my favorite albums released in 2017.
