The 13 Most Anticipated Albums of 2013

OUTKAST | Well, this is more wishful thinking than anything else. Three years ago, Big Boi hinted that the duo - who hasn't dropped an album since the 2006 "Idlewild" soundtrack - had something "brewing." Since then, Big Boi's released two albums on his own, but said he’s ready to make a new project with his partner “whenever [Andre] is." It was recently reported the two will reunite briefly on a remix to Frank Ocean's song "Pink Matter."

Listen up!

The new year always brings a bevy of music releases (and rumored ones) from our favorite (or at least most entertaining) artists. The-Dream has confirmed that Beyoncé will release new music before her Feb. 3 Super Bowl performance. Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj are planning to move their feud from "American Idol" to the charts. And Kanye West is embarking on more than just a baby with releases from both his G.O.O.D. Music and Watch the Throne projects.
