Move Swiftly, Guys - Certain artists have been waiting too long to drop albums. We want them ASAP. Even though Rihanna, Kanye West, Beyoncé and Drake have stepped up, that doesn’t mean that we aren’t greedy. We want all the albums. Let’s also put this into perspective: Maxwell will be releasing his latest LP in July after what felt like forever. Even Maxwell’s album is done. So, to everyone on this list we say, “Where you at?” – Jon Reyes (Photo from left: Jerod Harris/Getty Images, Matt Kent/Getty Images, Brian Killian/Getty Images)
