Hasn't 11 or 12 songs - or around 40-45 minutes of music - always been the norm for albums? The trend over the past ten years or so has been more and more albums that clock in at an hour or more, simply because CDs can hold that much music. Hip-hop albums in particular are notoriously for being overlong and having upwards of twenty tracks (which still leaves 14 or 15 songs if a bunch of those tracks are skits).
