Top 10 Anticipated Albums of 2012

Here we go again.
Starting at...

#10
Trouble Man - T.I.
Trouble Man is the follow up to 2010's No Mercy. All the music T.I. has been dropping, has been fire. Im Flexin Feat. Big K.R.I.T. was a great way to bring T.I. back into the game

#9
Loso's Way 2 - Fabolous
After many albums, I thought Fab could never make a great album, but he shocked us all with 2009's Loso's Way . With the TINC series, Fab has a huge fanbase and has the tools to make a great album.


#8
Food & Liquor 2 - Lupe Fiasco
Food & Liquor released in 2006 was a breakthrough artist for who else but Lu else. 2011's Lasers was a disappointment to Lupe fans all over. Now that people know he can sell, the record company should let him control the creativity on this album.

#7
God Forgives, I Don't - Rick Ross
Supposed to be released in December of 2011, the push back has led Ross to a top spot on the most anticipated. Ross is one of the hottest MC's in the game right now, and has a knack for picking excellent beats. God Forgives, I Don't should be a classic album to all Ross fans.


#6
Live From The Underground - Big K.R.I.T.
Lets hope this drops this year. Krizzle has released very notable mixtapes/free albums that sound like a masterpiece. This is another album that was supposed to be released in 2011. The Def Jam artist has created a solid fan base and should make nothing less than a classic with his debut album.

#5
Strange Clouds - B.o.B.
Strange Clouds is the follow up the the very successful The Adventures of Bobby Ray. The Grand Hustle MC has a unique yet creative sound that draws people in. With a March 13 release, be on the lookout for another great album.


#4
Life Is Good - NaS
It has been quite some time since Nasir Jones dropped his last album entitled Untitled. Although he released a collaborative album with Damien Marley, Distant Relatives. NaS said the experience of that album, has helped a lot with his solo work. The veteran should give us another classic sometime this year.

#3
Good Kid In A Mad City - Kendrick Lamar
This man has people going crazy. Already considered one of the best rappers in the game, his debut album should establish him as one. Kendrick has the potential to be one of the best to ever hold the mic. With Black Hippy on his side, the world is his.

#2
Untitled - Slaughterhouse
This will be the supergroup's first album since signing to Shady Records. They have tremendous buzz and talent to deliver a great album. With Eminem behind them, there is no telling what this album will sound like. Royce, Crook, Joell & Joey all have stated that they are excited about this project.


THE #1 ANTICIPATED ALBUM OF 2012 IS.....

Bottom's Up - Obie Trice
Since departing from Interscope records, the Detroit MC has not made an album since 2006's Second Rounds On Me. Obie is back February 28 with his third album. The wordplay genius has people ready for this release. Eminem is also expected to appear with his friend on 3 tracks. Obie has stated that he is ready to branch off and experience more. Working with new producers and artists, Obie is ready to deliver another classic.
