Assuming you disagree with Nasir’s early Album of the Year pick, what other hip-hop albums made you all warm and tingly inside. No mixtapes.

    So Far Gone. I know it’s a mixtape but I don’t care. It’s better than anything else this year.

    // A Lame Poem About 2009′s Best-Yet //

    I’m sorry, Nastradamus; you can’t see the future

    2009′s best ain’t Jada like you allude to

    Could it be DOOM, K-OS or Ali?

    Sadly, t’aint the Brother (that’s just an EP)

    Ah, but what to my wondering eyes did appear?

    ‘Twas Chapped Lips and Chiclets’ choice for album of the year!

    Hmm, P.O.S., what a bold, bold submission

    I agree 100% with homeboy’s decision

    “Never Better” is like being tossed in a dryer

    Winning a free soda; shot at wearing Mylar

    Smacked in the head with a dictionary

    Playing Wii versus Pictionary

    The antithesis of the lamest

    (Which is Kanye West, “Gay Fish”)

    Jumping turnstiles in Chi

    Drinking Evian in July

    It’s hip-hop meets drum ‘n bass

    Meets crunchy guitars that melt your face

    Yup, P.O.S., “Never Better,” that’s the ticket

    Now go ahead and cop it, dig it?

    Gotta agree with Mr. Jones, Jada has it on lock so far in 09.

    The new Ross is nice though.

    I also put P.O.S.’s “Never Better” as the top album of ’09 to date. There’s nothing comparable to this…by that, I mean I’ve never heard any record that sounds like this cat’s does.
