    like pretty much everybody. even all the critics and heads saying it SHOULD win if its based on QUALITY (even tough taylor is the favorite due to album sales)

    i think either future or thug's collected works for the year could take the title, but if you have to limit it to one album, then probably vince.

    EDIT: oh you mean of the grammy nominees? none are great. i'd probably vote for nicki.

    i'm sick of taylor's bs tbh!!!! but i think 1989 is the best of those five albums (well, the four that i've heard)

    yeah most critics want tpab to win the grammy, not just because its the best album this year (in any genre), but because it is a solid contender for best album of the decade 2010-2019

    that's what Fantano said. He said that if the grammy wants the best album to win then TPAB has to get every single vote. Unfortunately, the grammy is also a popularity contest.

    it's my favorite so far... I mean it changes every day, sometimes its Tpab, but it could also be Currents or MBDTF, but these 3 got it on lock for me.

    of the decade ain't enough... like theverge said, it's the greatest album of the 21t hcentury

    Martin COnnor, one of the most respected analysts right now went as far as to say that it was probably the greatest hip hop album ever :sweatt:

    I'd like to rank it #1 on our all time list but we can't... we have to include a list of criteria such as impact, influence,... but quality wise, I'd agree with M.C.

    Not a lot of masterpieces dropped this decade, but all of them are amazing:

    Mbdtf, TPAB, Channel Orange, tame impalas albums, black messiah,..

    I wouldn't be mad. The album I enjoyed the most this decade is High Violet, it's an indie rock album... but TPAB, The Money Store and MBDTF deserve the top spot as well.

    I don't like channel orange at all, replace it with High Violet and you you pretty much have my Elite list for this current decade.
