So I've been listening to Quadrophenia for the next album discussion, and it made me think about both my previous post and bootsy's comment on it. Specifically, the fact that I felt unwilling to comment on this album and willing to comment on Quadrophenia despite not being able to relate to the con...

I really don't get this album (but I wish I did!). On paper, I understand why it's important, but when I listen to it I end up getting bored. I guess that's true of a lot of 80's and early 90's hip hip. It doesn't engage me like Kendrick, Kanye, Vince Staples or countless other rap albums from the ...

I don't feel like I can comment on a lot of this album as a non-black, non-American and highly-privileged New Zealander. Fuck Tha Police is the only song that really feels relevant to my world, and that's mainly because of how applicable it is to the treatment of Maori and Pacific Islanders here (i...

Are the votes for Stevie Nicks not based a little too much on Fleetwood Mac? I mean, she had solo success sure, but I doubt that was enough to even be considered if Fleetwood Mac never existed. And she is already in for that act. Personally, this group doesn't do much for me. Only one act I genuine...

Also, can someone explain the appeal of the song "This is America"? The popularity of it's music video doesn't make it a better song. As for songs, I agree with anyone else who said that "This Is America" and "Make Me Feel" will nab the top 2 spots. I think "This ...

Michael's sister at #8 alone invalidates this list. yikes So where should it be? It's a great album. Are you saying it shouldn't be on the list at all or further down? Based on his previous posts, he's not a fan of anyone in particular named Jackson (Samuel L., maybe). Given that and the "yike...

1999 is Prince's best album of the decade. ;) If anything the list could use MORE Prince. Controversy , Parade , and Lovesexy all belong. We'll agree to disagree there. While I've never seen a greater live performer in my lifetime, always been a touch underwhelmed by Prince on album. Wildly creativ...

Janelle Monae - Dirty Computer 6,5 A lack of madness. Some great parts on good songs (the choruses especially), but I don't know why, I waited for the songs to go wild all through the album without it coming, a little bit frustrating. Had similar feelings about that album. It's my least favorite of...

Gah, for some reason I decided to update my song list this week...why would I do this just in time to see my old list be used? Why didn't I wait until after this new list to find new songs? I still haven’t gotten to the “look back over everyone’s list to make sure I didn’t assign points to the enti...

If you need a way to kill time before the rollout begins, I'd suggest checking out the individual lists. There's a lot to discover in them... believe me, there is a lot . At some point I plan on doing this. Or better yet it would be really extra nice to turn all our lists into Spotify or ITunes pla...

^Gillingham hadn't noticed the minimum rule until after he'd posted that, and so he sent me a message saying that, unfortunately, he is unable to expand his list.

So, I haven't actually touched this at all, but combining it shouldn't take too long - so today is the soft deadline, but I will give a hard deadline once I'm closer to actually presenting.

Was hoping to give RTJ more of a listen, then that Killer Mike stuff happened and I’m not interested. You should still listen. You really let what he said decide whether you listen to his music or not. You really let things get to you way too much. He's already gone back on what he said so that sho...

The best hip-hop albums in recent years have come from the likes of Kendrick Lamar and Danny Brown. And Vince Staples, the Summertime 06, Primadonna, Big Fish Theory stretch is way underrated in my opinion.
