NEWS: Idolator Pop '07 Lists Released Today

When Gawker media's music industry website Idolator requested a list of my favorite artists, records, tracks, etc. of 2007 I chose to submit seperate lists. One for Hip Hop and one for basically everything else (but essentially indie rock/folk). Idolator just threw up the lists of 451 music writers/critics. Below is the top 10 list of albums compiled of all the writer's lists. Only one Hip Hop album. To check out the full list and all the other categories go here. My personal lists are underneath that and can also be checked out here with further commentary and reasoning.
