As 2016 comes to a close, Rap-Up is looking back on an epic year in music.

From Beyoncé and Rihanna to Drake and Kanye West, the past 12 months have been full of superstar names, surprise albums, outrageous visuals, and blockbuster concerts.

We want to hear from you, so we’re launching our first-ever Readers’ Choice poll, giving you the opportunity to vote for the best of 2016 in five major categories: Best Album, Best Song, Best Music Video, Best New Artist, and Best Tour.

This is all in addition to Rap-Up’s Editors’ Choice picks, which will be unveiled next week.
