I’m excited to bring back my top albums list, this time for 2019! I considered the idea of looking at the top albums of the decade and I may still do that in a future post. For now, below are the top albums that I listened to this year.

Similar to my criteria for 2018, nothing specific other than being in regular rotation in Apple Music (vs. iTunes from last year!).

It’s interesting to compare my lists in the past year, given that I’ve included more rock music and less hip-hop in my library these days.

Check the images on the side to see the top tracks from each album.
