im no longer subscribing to there can only be one album of the year
we consume WAY too much music these days for it to come down to one album out of literally hundreds that are released yearly
I will probably do the best 5-10 albums of the year. Even if there are a hundred exactly, naming 10 is only 10% of that which is great imo.

I'ma give Bandana a run this week
did i say that?
I hate this new way of thinking mfs trying to adopt!
Everybody can't be the best!!!!
Every rapper can't be top 5!!!!
Every album can't be album of the year!!!!
I always give an album a rating based off first listenI will say u should let an album live a couple weeks before rating it.
Yall cant be giving albums 5mics that havent been out for more than 24hrs
did i say that?
you mean to tell me out of hundreds of albums, ONE single album is going to be the best out of them all? I disagree with that logic. It's archaic. Music and the way we consume it has evolved
You act like i said I was gonna put the Quality Control compilation or something.
If you still subscribe to that thought, you are going to intentionally find something about a very good album to place it under another one. Why? You know how perfect a project has to be in today's time for it to be the ONLY album worth an AOTY nod?
So you mean to tell me that 98 is revered to be one of the best years for hip hop, but there can only be one album worthy of album of the year?? Nah b
ehhhEverybody can't be first place. Just cuz an album is 2nd or 3rd best of the year doesn't mean it's not a great album, it's just not the best.
Remember when if you weren't 1st, 2nd or 3rd place you didn't get shit? Now these kids be getting 15th place ribbons and trophies and shit. Society is becoming more and more complacent with mediocrity. Sluts are getting celebration walks, being a drug addict is cool now, etc
This world is going to shit.
Like when?ehhh
so how do you give an edge to an album if BOTH projects check all the boxes?
how many albums in 98 check all the boxes?Like when?
Whats an example of this?
ehhh
so how do you give an edge to an album if BOTH projects check all the boxes?
You are going to say silly things like "well, i listen to track no 2 on this album more than i listen to track no.2 on the other album"
or how about this
you can still subscribe to there can only be one album of the year, and I'll subscribed to "the top ten albums of the year in no order"
deal??
but....but...~sighs~Usually if I have multiple albums that fit the criteria I’ll just ask myself “if I had to pick one album to listen to which one would it be?”
how many albums in 98 check all the boxes?
I just stated 3 in this very thread that for me, check the boxes
