2018 seemed to be the busiest year in music in a long time. It seemed like we received noteworthy albums every week for all 52 weeks. Of course we had to take a look back at the year and honor the Northern California artists that put in work through the year.
We reached out to more than 50 tastemakers and industry professionals, and asked them to vote for the artists, producers, directors, albums, songs, and music videos, that they believed deserved to be recognized. These votes determined who and what won awards for Artist Of The Year, Rookie Of The Year, Director Of The Year, Producer Of The Year, Slap Of The Year, Album Of The Year, and Video Of The Year.
You can stream Best Of Thizzler 2018 this Sunday at 8PM! The show features cyphers, guest presenters, and of course awards!Â
