Cass’ Cuts: Top Albums 2008


It’s almost 2009 and I haven’t posted my top 10 of this year yet. This week it’s all about my favorite albums. What did you listen to? What did I miss?

1. Santogold - Santogold

What a year, from releasing her nearly perfect debut album to being produced by Kanye West and featured by Jay-Z.

Jay-Z & Santogold - Brooklyn We Go Hard (via The Fader)

2. Benga - Diary Of An Afro Warrior

3. Kanye West - 808s & Heartbreak

Singing? Auto-tune? Who cares? He’s a genius.


4. Lil’ Wayne - The Carter 3

He even made T-Pain sound cool. Best rap album 2008. No discussion.


5. The Cool Kids - The Bake Sale

My personal summer record. Riding through the hood with your bike, iPod and hater blockers. Untouchable.


6. Terry Lynn - Kingstonlogic 2.0

7. Flying Lotus - LAFlying Lotus BBC Essential Mix (via New Mixes)

8. Ed Rec, Vol. 3

Do that stuff that your mama calls smut”


9. Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple


10. Roots Manuva - Slime And Reason
