Not included are instrumental albums, compilations, mixtapes (otherwise classic mixtapes like Joey Bada$$’s 1999 (2012), Isaiah Rashad’s Cilvia Demo (2014), Chance The Rapper’s Acid Rap (2013), Mick Jenkins’ The Waters (2014), Big K.R.I.T.’s K.R.I.T. Wuz Here (2010) and Return Of 4eva (2011), No Name’s Telefone (2016), and others would have made the cut), and EPs. This is our album list, and albums are LPs – Long Playing records – EPs by definition are a different category. Also eliminated for consideration were projects billed as albums that are actually EP-length like Pusha T’s Daytona (2018) and Kanye West and Kid Cudi’s Kids See Ghosts (2018) – projects with a running time of barely 20 minutes, too short for inclusion on this list.
I'm not quite sure about the eligibility review, since they don't seem to do full reviews very often, but every month they publish a list of the 9 best hip hop albums of the month with a paragraph or two reviewing them. That doesn't quite meet the rules but it might barely be close enough to allow it past? (Also, the webpage design is barely legible. I don't know what's up with that.)
