Pitchfork don't know shyt about hip hop. First off.

But I'm honestly confused as a dog at this lost because I can't say I've heard even 2 of the projects on this list.

I'm approaching Larry Holmes status, but I'm. Not that outta touch


Whooooo?

 

[Redwood]

Garbage list

This is not p4k best albums list, this is a column by Alphonse Pierre and he mostly focuses on soundcloud and stuff like that. Thats why you haven't heard most of these projects.

Thank god I was beginning to think Pitchfork was a piece of shyt publication run by hypebeasts

Awful list. Man, Pitchfork during the 2000s were the premier white indie taste testers. Brave and balsy with their recommendations. They couldn't write for shyt, but I had my musical awakening thanks to them. There was a time when they could make or break bands, but now they're jokes. I think Fantano has eclipsed their influence in the indie sphere. The internet and Condé Nast killed them.

Alphonse Pierre has introduced me to a ton of artists over the years.

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

Pretty accurate list

P4k is now irrelevant, mainly because all their good writers got hired by Rollingstone, nme, etc
And yeah, Fantano been at the top now, you even see artists (SZA for example) admitting they're waiting for his reviews to improve their craft.

I don't think I even heard of Pitchfork like that until the 2010s.

A bunch of nobodies and Sexy Redd. Pitchfork is so embarrassing man

Pitchfork should never be posted here. Cardi B’s album was Illmatic to them.

Ironically the only album I heard from this list aint even rap, its the R&B album from Mos Defs daughter.

And it is dope.
