MBDTF & GKMC been the consensus top 2 of the last 5 years since they dropped.

And now everybody saying tpab is even better than gkmc. This nikka kendrick is building an all time great catalog :whew:



MBDTF & To Pimp A Butterfly are both 10/10 tbh
Good kid maad city is a solid 9 - 9.5/10
Channel Orange is 9 - 9.5/10
Undun is another 9/10
The Warm up 9/10

tame impala's album was also a masterpiece, but thats it. I

doubt it will be topped this year, clear Album of the year for me.

the composition of this album is on another level

To be honest..the only rapper that has potential to go head to head with this album is Ye...

But i don't even know..and I'm a Ye fan :damn:

And don't even ask me about Drake...VFT6 will not even come CLOSE to topping this..

So I suppose Stankonia is the GOAT album? :troll:
metacritic only exist since the late 90s (99?) so nop. But it definitely is one of the best albums of the last 15 years. The rapping isn't top notch but the music and the songwriting are :whew:
