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.
