K.R.I.T. has postponed his album for 4 months, and is now for 5 more. If it is not amazing, I will be thoroughly pissed off. Kendrick Lamar said Section.80 was his preparation, and Good Kid in a Bad City is the album he has been waiting to make his whole life. It better be revolutionary. Mad Lib hasn't shown his face for a while, and a collaboration with up and coming Freddie Gibbs should be great. Tyler's Goblin was not bad, and with a year in between it and Wolf he should have been able to make something great. Jay-Z never upsets, so his album should continue this trend, and the first Throne installment was stellar so part 2 better be. I am interested to hear what El-P has to share. Kanye's G.O.O.D. Music features a great collection of musicians so it will be good. A$AP's LIVE LOVE Himself was pretty good, and his new album will featured a more mature rapper with more time to learn how he wants to change rap. Personally I don't like Common's rap, but he has had some very good showcases, and Nas's Illmatic, although very old, is arguably my favorite rap album of all time.
