Top Ten 2015

This first episode of STAY WOKE! with DeRa Brinson and Effin Mattie discusses our top ten hip-hop albums that we believe should have been considered for the 2016 Grammy awards. The criteria for this list is based on replay-ability, cohesiveness, ability to play the album from begin to end, innovation, and content connection. The list was not composited based on album sales or popularity (Mattie took this into account not DeRa). There may be albums which were released in 2014 that are still considered for this list because of how late the albums were released. November-December of 2014-2015 release dates were considered for this list. There will be a new episode every month so check back here. Listen to the first episode
