    I enjoyed this, even if I disagreed with a handful of years, the art was phenomenal. Great article by Complex.

    Narsh's list in a nut shell

    1991 Winner: Young Thug. Born this year had the best baby cry flow out there. Drake was already 5 years old and couldn't cry near that level. His cries were overrated and all sounded the same.

    True. To often I see the album getting praised for the wrong reasons too like it's "complexity" or just purely the message behind it. To be quite honest, I think people are so caught up with the fact that it's so universally praised that people are just praising the album to jump on the bandwagon. I see a lot of people not just on here but on other social media outlets as well that can't explain what makes the album so great and that's a problem. Blind praise means nothing.

    See... I said all of them were underwhelming (IMO) and you're here implying I haven't listened to his catalog.

    :lmaooo: feel like Narsh can't accept the fact that people ain't f---ing with his favorite artists :lmaooo:

    You're either the king of strawmanning or have a wildly shallow/off-base reading of Future's music.

    This is why people hate TPAB fans. :'( Why is TPAB "art" and not Future's music? Why is Kendrick talking about Lucy (get it Lucy-fer like the devil haha :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:) and personifying the devil as a woman like the horrible misogynist he is considered art (see I can strawman too).

    100%. Men lie, women lie, facts don't.

    So TPAB:

    -the consensus AOTY according to the critics, its also #1 on 90% of the end year lists.
    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/critics-pick-top-10-best-albums-of-2015
    -the highest rated hip hop album of all time on Metacritic.
    -the reason kendrick has the most nominations in one night at the grammy (since Michael Jackson in 84).
    -has 2 songs being played in protests, one of them is named the new black anthem.
    -being taught at some universities.
    -had a scholarship in its name.
    -influenced some goat artists like David Bowie, Prince and Chuck D, all in the same year.
    -the highest rated album of the decade in any genre on multiple platforms like RYM that only take people's rankings into account.

    -had RollingStone Magazine calling Sway in the morning to say TPAB better be #1 on every end year list because it's the most ambitious album of the year, musically.
    -is probably one of the most respected rap album by modern jazz musicians.
    -contains Barack Obama's favorite song of the year.
