The Garrickys Annual best of the year awards

I wanted to get through the year before I posted the my best of the year awards. I will be doing best hip-hop album, best mixtape of the year, best television show, best movie, and athlete of the year. Okay let's get to it.

Best Hip-Hop Album:

This one was hard because it was so much good music. I wanted to pick Jay Z for his stellar album, Magna Carter Holy Grail. However Drake's Nothing Was the Same edges Jay Z only because we are used to Jay performing at a high level. Drake's album felt like a movie, and it didn't reek of Cash Money it was all his style on display. 

Best Mix tape Artist:

This one was easy, no one else is talking about the truly ugly side of Chicago's youth that are caught in the industrial prison complex better than Keith Cozart also known as Chief Keef. Just listen to Jet Li or 12 Bars and hear the potential in this rhyme sayer don't let your cultural bias stop you from embracing Sosa.

Best Televison show:
The best show was hard this year and I wanted to pick something that wasn't mainstream but should be, the best television show is Arrow. CW Televison superhero drama is one part Batman, one part Lost, and one part Gossip Girl. Add those together and you get to see how Warner Brother is crafting their characters for the new century. Arrow has a rich boy who was trapped on an island for five years as returns a machine for justice. He recently stopped killing the bad guy and we always get answers as to what happen to him on the island. 

Best Movie of the Year:
When I finished watching Elysium it made me confidant that we will have the technology to cure people and yet the price will be so astronomical you'd have to have enough money to live in space. Don't see that happening in our lifetime?Maybe it will maybe it won't be like that in our lifetimes but they way in which the characters were fighting for a place a the financial elite was memorizing. 

Athelete of theYear:
This was an easy pick Lebron James is the best athlete on the planet. His game is fierce and he looks a tad bored. He has a championship last year and looks to get another. There is no one that provides those jump out of your seats moments as Lebron does.

That's my best of list, should be a great year. -thegqlife
