Last year, one rapper stood victorious: Kendrick Lamar. Things are a different this year. There are trap lords and jewel thieves; acid rappers and black skinheads; born sinners and snow slingers. Competition is strong, but there can only be one. Peep the 15 best rap albums of 2013.
| 2013 Best Heavy Metal Albums
As the year winds down, it's time to pick the best metal albums released in 2013. It will take a few years to get a better perspective, but at first glance the elite albums of this year stack up pretty favorably with recent years. Choosing which 20 albums make the list is always a challenging proposition, but the one at the top was an easy choice.
| Best Folk Music Albums Of 2013
