This is the reason I want to see other people's lists so I can listen and re-listen to stuff that I either missed out on the first time or play again.
Yeah, I feel like I'm forgetting some stuff too. Lead Poison was fantastic though, the way he took beats which were kind of simplistic and straight forward and made his lyrics the true basis of the project made it a really rewarding experience imo.

That's why I didn't include it on my list. I would say it's very heavily influenced by hip-hop, but there's no question that it isn't just a straight-up hip-hop project.

I hated the project. I'm not a Ferg fan to begin with, but I thought it was one of the corniest releases this year. I liked the track with Lil Uzi Vert, and that was about it.
