My favorite albums of 2013

[e_l traveler]

As the year is coming to wraps in less than 2 weeks, I took it upon myself (didn't really need to) to make a personalized ranked list of my top 10 favorite albums of 2013. I’m mainly a hip-hop head enthusiast with regions of indie rock and electronic pop likings fastened to this brain of mine. As such, this brief list (I do say brief, as I purchased from iTunes a total of 38 new albums) is customized and fitted to my own musical likings.

1. Kanye West: Yeezus
2. Daft Punk: Random Access Memories
3. Arcade Fire: Reflektor
4. Eminem: The Marshall Mathers LP 2
5. Janelle Monáe: The Electric Lady
6. Arctic Monkeys: AM
7. Earl Sweatshirt: Doris
8. Lorde: Pure Heroine
9. Drake: Nothing Was the Same
10. Lady Gaga: Artpop

So my question is—do any of these picks cut across to a favorite album or albums of yours for this year, members and providers alike?

If none of the below apply, then what are your picks?
Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas (whichever one you prefer)!

Like the Daft Punk, Arctic Monkey's, Arcade Fire, and would add Willie Nelson's Heroes.
