That Erykah Badu is an easy Top 20 album for me.

Nice range of music. The Four Tet is one of those I left in the car and played every day for weeks... great driving music.

Nice list.
However, I was personally pretty disappointed with that Erykah Badu.

That Badu album is solid. Not top 20 for me, but I love "Window Seat". Nice vibe throughout.

Still debating whether or not I should spend some time with that Laura Marling album. Giving it more serious consideration now.

Nice. There was a part of me that wanted to add this, but I just didn't spend enough time with it.

Black Keys always pop up on my Pandora stations, but I resist and skip. Brothers was definitely good, but I have something against them since I saw them live 5 years or so ago, and yes, I realize they've progressed their sound tenfold, but it's just one of those bands I refuse to fully like.
