Dart Adams presents A What's New In Dart's iPod End Of The Year Spectacular

This is the final "What's New In Dart's iPod" post of 2008 and there were no new album leaks or releases that I had scheduled to review so I decided to go out with a special edition. I'm still in the process of doing my "Best Of 2008" lists which includes my FULL list of the best Hip Hop albums of this past year that I'll post up Monday, but today I'll put up my Top 50 list in lieu on my usual album reviews.

Please keep in mind that I did around 40+ weekly review blogs this year for more than 250 EP's, LP's and mixtapes and I heard a hell of a lot more that I put into my Late Passes (For Doz Dat Slept) section. This means that a gang of albums that I gave Mos Def's and highly recommended Maybe (Maeby)'s to in the past 12 months didn't make this list. Without any further ado I present to you "Dart Adams Top 50 Hip Hop LP's, EP's and Mixtapes Of 2008". It'll be back with more pals on Monday so enjoy:
