This week Billboard published its final charts dated in the 2011 calendar year. All in all, there were 31 LPs that rose to #1 on the Top 200 in 2011, several of which we highlighted in both our Summer and Fall Music Previews . We dissected the 13 chart-toppers from the first half of the year back in late June. (Adele's 21 still ruled when all was said and done, with over 5 million copies sold by the end of December.) Now flip through the gallery of the 18 [...]

Alright here is another #latepass guys! Tyler, The Creator put this summertime mix together and tweeted about it. I already knew it would be filled with N.E.R.D., since he's a self-proclaimed stan, and I was right. But there's also hella other goodness (see: Toro y Moi, Grizzly Bear, James Pants, Stevie Wonder) on here that definitely sounds and feels like summertime. You can play this in your car or while you work or whatever. Get into it. The mp3 is too large to stream, but here's a track from the mix. Full listing after the jump. [...]
![[Listen/Download] – New Mixtape By Tyler, The Creator – “Summer Camp Mix 2011″](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3561869_lg.jpg)
Tweet Something about summer always gets me thinking about songs that sound like summer, but I'm not the only one. Earlier today Tyler the Creator dropped his Summer Camp Mix on the Odd Future web site. The mix is full of tunes that just feel like heat rays beating down on you while you're chilling on your backyard patio with a 40 and your chillest buds, with the rest filled in with Tyler under the moniker DJ Stank Daddy bringing in the usual Odd [...]
This song was so good I had to share it. As a child Maxwell's albums were gold to me. The Neo Soul movement in 90s that included artists like Maxwell, India Arie, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Musiq Soulchild etc. spoke to me, hell it still speaks to me today. The Alchemists production has always been tight and this track benefits from his production style, Maxwells soulful tone and Twista's rapid fire lyricism. I can't help but continue to hope that Hip Hop like this makes its resurgence over the next year and Neo Soul artists come back inspired by the [...]
Lupe, what happened?! I heard your leaked version of this album a few months back and really dug it! Then it finally comes out and it's not as good! These things happen... Rumor has it Lupe got a bit ticked off when his much hyped album got leaked, raised some hell and cold changed it up. Who knows for sure, all I'm sayin is that I was really feelin the leaked version - as is. I'm not sayin this is a bad album, cause it's not. Kick Push was my summer anthem [...]
