Top 50 Hip Hop Albums of 2010

Here's my top 50 albums of 2010. I also did a top 10 based on production and lyrics. No mixtapes were included (unless there's a mixtape that I mistakenly think is an album). It's not a mistake that I have two #5s in my top 50 and two #3s in my lyrical top 10. When the tracklist for S.P.T.A. is revealed, I'll either remove Undivided Attention from the lists or move everything below it down a spot. I really wanted to fit Flockaveli into at least one of these lists to pretend that my musical taste is so refined that I can find the artistic value in shitty simplistic beats and rhymes that had no effort put into them at all, but there just wasn't any room for it.
