12.Death Grips-The Money Store (2012):
Crafting music that feels genuinely rebellious is hard to do. Artists that fancy themselves the edgy type often try so hard to manufacture a "punk" sound that it comes off as disingenuous and kind of pathetic. That annoying trend makes the existence of organic anarchy like The Money Store joyously refreshing. This entire record is a carnival of singularly abrasive chaos that thrives on the industrial hip hop trio's abundant rage, speed freak energy and stunning gift for making even the most inaccessible music thoroughly catchy.

11.Danny Brown-Atrocity Exhibition (2016):
The introspective pain that was in the background of Danny Brown's releases like XXX and Old made its way to the forefront with staggering results on Atrocity Exhibition. Aided by a manic, sample-heavy backdrop, Brown takes the listener on a harrowing journey through his personal hell that's driven by depression, self-loathing and substance abuse. While it's often an uncomfortable and distressing listen, it's also a highly poignant and original take on the familiar concept of an artist trying to confront their deeply-rooted demons through art.
