Best albums of 2010
A maximalist rap album made in Hawaii raised the ceiling on what a mainstream record could attempt, and nothing has quite reached it since. Dream pop arrived from bedrooms with no budget and no scene, distributed by blogs that would all be gone in three years.
According to Riffiter listeners, the best album of 2010 is Doo-Wops & Hooligans by Bruno Mars, rated 4.6/5 by 7 listeners.
