I love Simon D's album ! I don't really know the others tho =/ but I expected Clover ??

Side note: While I think it's good idols aren't included, I'm really curious how GD&TOP would have ranked (without the cray fans). I know that even though they're doing "idol" music you can't deny they still have a presence on the Hip Hop scene... Of course, it's not (at all) as big as the other acts. Oh well, sometimes I don't know what they really are considered as. On one hand, they are rappers; on the other hand, they greatly contributed to the development of gimmickry rap in idol songs and thus, not so serious and legitimate acts... Or maybe that's simply because they don't only do Hip Hop music.

imo G-top's ability to write/produce a good pop song doesn't make them any less of a rapper. Because they don't limit themselves to the whole "rapper" image and stick mainly to hip hop people doubt their credibility and that makes me angry.

well, they're idols first and foremost. even if they did an album that has features from other established rappers that album will still be looked at as a pop album

I don't know half the artists here which is obviously a sign of the universe telling me to go and check them ASAP, so thanks for the post :D

열꽃 and Asura Balbalta are glorious albums, though. I can't get over them.

tbh i don't think the quiett's music dropped in quality after joining illionaire, but i was worried about that too at first. did you check out back on the beats vol 2?

also dok2 is a little piece of shit

illionaire's image is tacky beyond tacky and so is dok2, but don't judge the other two members by it :(

jumping on the wagon!

album of the year: leessang - asura balbalta
rookie of the year: soriheda - soriheda
producer of the year: shimmy twice
featuring of the year: beenzino
mv of the year: verbal jint - 깨알같아 (like a sesame)
single of the year: tablo - airbag (featuring naul)

soriheda's album was pretty amazing to me, and his name popped into my mind even before i read the nominees. as for tablo, he's my #1 obsession, ranking above everything and everyone, so he has my vote.

i see that we're all jazzyfact fans here n______n

i still have to get around to listening to leessang's album, but tablo and simon d had some really great ones.
and even though they're not nominated, dynamic duo's latest album was pretty damn awesome.

I hope Tablo wins some awards cause that album was great. Also, Hip Hop Playa awards is a terrible awards name

Recommendations?
I really like Double K, but who knows when his album will be coming out... I already heard the Tablo album and I'm not a big fan of Dok2 unless he's with Double K.

I can't decide if I like E.via or not. She just seems so gimmicky. And in some songs she just reminds me of Kreayshawn.

simon d & zion.T for all the awards!
in all seriousness, SNL LEAGUE BEGINS is an amazing album

I get why Gil Me is loyal to Eun Ji Won and ilh too but tbh she needs to be solo again. Would've loved to see her nominated for something.

I'm suprised no one's mentioned Zico yet XD Can someone please add Block B in the tags...? He's nominated for Best Featuring! He was so humble when he received the news...telling fans not to vote on popularity but actual talent. Which kind of makes me want to see him win even more.
