2014 is such a tough year. IMO the best Christian Hip Hop album in history Anomaly by Lecrae was that year. Kevin Gate - By Any Means is super slept on. You had J. Cole, Isiah Rashad, Schoolboy Q, Big Krit all releasing there best albums.

Big Krits best album was released in 2017 and was probably the best album that year

Haven’t heard the tribe album so this might change, but I really love TLOP -I would’ve given 2017 to 4eva is a mighty long time tho, super underrated, fucking beautiful album, but DAMN is also my second favorite Kendrick album so this one is tough, and obviously Flower boy is a killer. There’s also 4:44 which is amazing, this year is probably the hardest to rank for me. -2018, has gotta be KSG, Ye and Taboo are close behind though -2019, if Igor can’t be included, I’d say it’s Grey area by little simz -2020, burden of proof!! -2021, gotta be LP! by jpegmafia, though Tyler and little simz had runner ups I gotta check out the roots and tribe in general, gotta check out blu and exile, nothing was the same, and as god intended!
