Welcome! I Cannae believe the 2010s have come to a close. How much we’ve grown huh?
Below is a list, nay, curation of albums I’ve enjoyed over the past decade and the top 100 of my favorites.
This list consists of music I’ve constantly gone back to over the past 10 years, or albums that I felt were/Are pretty culturally significant… or ones that were/are very nostalgic for personal reasons… n shit.
I could go on about why each one is where it is blah blah blah – but I’ll leave that open to your interpretation! On with it!
I’ve also color coated the albums listed so you can see the years they came out.. and the color I associated with the vibe of the year.
