I'm with you, but there's a difference between a free album (1977, House of Balloons, Nostalgia and so on) and a mixtape (Gucci Mane, Fabolous and so on). Unless this topic is about retail albums, then free albums would run my list. The Weeknd, The Dream, Frank Ocean and so on. 
 
Country: David Nail- The Sound of a Million Dreams

Dubstep: Nero-Welcome Reality

Electronic: M83- Hurry Up, We're Dreaming

Folk: Bon Iver- Bon Iver

Hip-Hop: Jay-Z & Kanye West- Watch the Throne

Rock: The Black Keys- El Camino

Soul: Adele- 21

Nothing else really worth a mention to me. WTT was whack, Wale and Cole disappointed, Take Care was mediocre, Carter IV was terrible.
