"I really hate Kanye, but this album is awesome! Jay Z and Mr. West make a good team and their collaborations are hot!

The whole album is dynamic, it's powerful, it's beautiful!"

| 14. Fallen Empires
Snow Patrol
"Snow Patrol always impress me with their albums! Even if this album isn't their best one yet, I strongly believe that it's one of the best releases of 2011 and it was fairly ranked in my top 20! It's the same alt rock melodies of their previous albums, but more mature, more dark maybe, but still unique..."

| 13. When the Sun Goes Down
Selena Gomez & The Scene
"When "Sun" was released I wasn't a big fan of her music, but then Selena's grown on me. She's cute, her voice is beautiful and "Sun" is actually a cute, teenage album with many beautiful songs. Selena's best album is full of smart pop hits, sweet summerish melodies, and sweet lyrics... All these make up one of my favorite albums of the Year"

| 12. Take Care
Drake
"I ain't a Drake fan, but "Take Care" is one of the best releases of the year. An amazing Hip Hop album from an artist that in his previous records prooved he's here to s(l)tay... What I find really interesting in Drake's new album, is that every song is a different story, a different emotion, the way he thinks the world goes on... Praised by many specialists, Drake should be sure that Take Care was a masterpiece indeed!"
