Top 25 Hip-Hop Beats of 2013

If you've read my blog before, you know I'm a huge hip-hop fan. Earlier this year, I figured it would be cool to compile a list of my 25 favorite beats of the year. While this year wasn't the finest for hip-hop on the whole in my opinion, there was a lot of great beats this year and this list was really hard to narrow down to 25. Before I move on with the actual list, here is the list of all the hip-hop releases I listened to in 2013:
Danny Brown-Old
Mac Miller-Watching Movies with the Sound Off
Ghostface Killah-Twelve Reasons to Die
Kanye West-Yeezus
Chance the Rapper-Acid Rap
