MONG'S TOP ALBUMS OF 2017



We've seen the "comebacks" of several artists last year, 2017. P!nk released her much-awaited album Beautiful Trauma, a follow-up to her 2012's The Truth About Love. Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, and Taylor Swift released their albums after being album-less for three years. Following their 2015's albums, Kendrick Lamar, Imagine Dragons, & Migos released their albums as well. Drake released another mixtape following the success of his collaboration mixtape What A Time To Be Alive. Rag'n'Bone Man & former One Direction member Harry Styles released their debut albums respectively.

Last year, I've also invested on listening to critically-acclaimed albums, so as not to fill the entire Top 55 with just commercially successful albums but with albums loved by the critics as well. The complete list of my TOP ALBUMS OF 2017 is after the jump.

MONG'S TOP TV SERIES OF 2017



The year 2017 was a bit interesting for TV series in general. With the increasing popularity of streaming-only series, some popular shows over the years were losing viewers. Last year, we've seen the rise of these streaming-only series, be it critically-acclaimed or well-loved by the audience.

My rankings through the years were 90% objective and 10% subjective. I consider TV ratings and both scores from critics and viewers. And getting the popularity of these streaming-only series was a bit limited, I might devise a way next year. But for now, here are my TOP 17 STREAMING-ONLY SERIES OF 2017:
The complete list of my TOP TV SERIES OF 2017 is after the jump.
