Mac Miller did one of the best Tiny Desk Concerts with Thundercat. So good.

I think Yelawolf is one of the most talented artists period and still going strong:

One of his latest tracks

Are there any solid hip hop ALBUMS from the last 10-15 years that people here would recommend?

I got both on vinyl! Love them.

One of my favorite rappers of the past decade is Vince Staples. His whole discography is solid but especially the last few. They’re short albums, bordering on mini LPs but all great. Super witty.

SZA is also another favorite but she is probably closer to R&B.

Andre 3000 is definitely my favorite. Has he put out anything officially since The Love Below ?**

Well, he’s had plenty of one off guest verses but no, and he may never release another solo record that’s not a bunch of flute music or whatever, but even if he never raps again, he has done enough to earn a spot in my top 5.
