Billboard releases "Top 100 Rap Albums" list

[Da_Eggman]

i was expecting way worse to be fair

 

[Surreal]

list looks solid but did I see Rick Ross Teflon Don in the top 50?

And no Death Certificate

Damn. Kendrick stans about to go crazy with this one. They been saying that TPAB is objectively one of the greatest albums in music period. But Billboard got it at 54 in hip hop

Every list has a different kendrick album as his best album, billboard apparently has DAMN...but seems like kendrick almost always have 1 album in the top 15/10 of every fukking list, and its never the same one. The fact all his albums have an argument for that spot speaks volume on the quality of his catalog
Also, from the billboard link: "And, of course, since we’re Billboard, we took into account how the albums performed commercially"

Tpab wasn't kendrick's most commercial effort, so it's not a surprise.

 

[Ol’Otis]

License to Ill deserves to be top 10 off the strength of the Paul Revere beat

Was wondering why they had Kendrick's DAMN as his best album, but then I realized it was Billboard, they probably take charts into account.

 

[Surreal]

So no Death Certificate in the top 100?

 

[Lhark]

Not a bad top 10

 

[ThirdAct]

Finally a list that doesn't overrate TPAB but then they overrate Damn

 

[Nuuko]

Damn. Kendrick stans about to go crazy with this one. They been saying that TPAB is objectively one of the greatest albums in music period. But Billboard got it at 54 in hip hop

still #1 on rateyourmusic in all genres ahead of radiohead

And still at the top of a lot of lists

 

[Metal Face]

these trash lists come out every week

no Kendrick in the top 10 is surprising

 

[BmoreGorilla]

still #1 on rateyourmusic in all genres

Don’t get me wrong breh. I thought TPAB was a great album

 

[Lord Beasley]

Replace Lauryn Hill with DMX IDAHIH

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

The Chronic is the most overrated rap album of all time.

That might be 'Life After Death'.... placing it anywhere near the best Pac albums is laughable.

 

[Negro Caesar]

That top 10 aint bad if u take out the Lauryn Hill album
