I think so also cause mad MC's dropped albums this year, and I liked almost all of them.....I dont feel like there was AS much wack shit as last year, tho we still had the fair share of dumb shit....

But I mean, we did have dope albums last year like

Common - Be
Dangerdoom - the mouse and the mask
GZA & DJ Muggs - GrandMasters
Beanie Sigel - The B. Coming

ect. thats such a small fracton, just all that pops to mind... but yea I agree, 2006 has probably been a bit better

Ok this year is better because jayz dropped his worst album of all time? Or because nas cant get more then 2 decent beats a cd? Oh wait, is it because lupe's kick push is lyrically amazing? OMG SO MANY REASONS you blind fucks whats the point of trying to make a difference, you guys even listen to this shit. Niggas got L in his sig, and thinks lupe is hot lyrically. Nas cd was amazing lyrically, beats snoring. Jay z had maybe 4 decent songs, 2 of them is just because Justblaze laced a REAL beat. Fucking dre is just storch man im telling you. 05 was better ONLY because mixing wasnt totally fucked until 06. If you think beats from 99-2005 are mixed the same as 2006, your not listening. it ruins the whole beat. Pharrel goes from southern hospitality to money maker, storch is considered one of the best in the game, and justin timberlake gets more plays on BLACK entertainment then nas. Yes people, this is a great year. Fuck this site

Trae doin his thing... trick droppin again.... Clipse dropped (yeah VA is the South) so many big things in the south... can't name it all...

The East.... NAS is the THAT NIGGA... Jay came back... album wasn't hittin on shit but still revived the scene up there brought some placques to NY... Pap is the new school canibus rippin everything...Cassidy came home, ripped the booth, went to the hospital, and should be back with a dope LP...Ghost twice in a year....

The Midwest... Re Up Album, Obie, Ca$his is wack, sorry.... Kanye remained a production credit.... ummmmm.... ummmmmm..... Common got a GAP Ad.... RIP Big Proof RIP Blade Icewood...

The West... Snoop and Game dropped... nuff said..... Bay still getting money... 40 dropped his hardest shit in years...

Underground standards much better but mainstream kinda just declined with the coon movement going on.
