TPAB not even being in the list AT ALL is disrespectful!
They get it out the list bc it's controversial album to them...that's what i think....
Legit😤
Facts
GKMC is better than TPAB, only sweaty music nerds think that TPAB is better.
@@ash2crimson968 You wrote this same comment multiple times and on different days here. I'm beginning to think the sweaty nerd is you
No Miriah Carey, Whitney, Earth Wind and Fire, linkin park, or Wayne
I’m fine with that. Completely.
@@cactaceous no Mariah Carey is wild
@@pleaseshutup7053 Which Mariah album then? Daydream?
Not to mention Paul Freakin’ Simon, CCR, Gorillaz, Fiona Apple… It’s nonsense haha
@@nameisamine Mariah Carey never put out a good album her entire career. She has popular singles. Albums? Not one.
Not putting TPAB on here is straight up ignorant.
or Dirty Sprite 2
or any of Tha Carter 1-3 Wayne albums
GKMC is better than TPAB, only sweaty music nerds think that TPAB is better.
@@ash2crimson968 Further proving my point…
@@ash2crimson968 nah you just a square
"As big as Eminem has been with his singles, I don’t know if his albums did those numbers" bro WHAT?!
EXACTLY!!!!
Eminem doesn't have more than one classic album.
And not sure it makes top 100 of all genres?? Hip-hop albums definitely.
BUT clearly he sold records. He's white.
@@activistbook3809 what album might that be?
@@activistbook3809
Yeah cuz black don't sell!
The Marshall Mathers album is amazing
DMX made two Platinum albums in a calendar year. Neither one made it
Nor should they.
album sales are relevant to lawyers and ex wives
Yet Get Rich or Die Trying made the list.
There's only a 100 spots bro chill
both are top 100 Hip Hop albums but in all of music? nah homie.
Apple is compromised
Bro... Apple been releasing the same phone for the past 15 years, they been compromised. 💀
Lets peel the layers back..
That list is BS.
💯
in your opinion, how ironic
@@osmosisbless its great how black folk make up 13 percent of American population yet black artists made up a much, much larger percentage of this list.
Of course if you ask people who listen to one style of music, hip hop, then hip hop will be highly represented, while only 1 country album is chosen.
@@bunjijumper5345 Why not say then that the list lacks an Indian or Asian influence? There are more chinese people on earth and to my knowledge there is not one Chines album on this list. This list is clearly subjective and is heavily influenced by the tastes and opinions of the people who made it. I don't think they meant to represent the entire opinion of the greater American or global population to which you clearly disagree, which is your entitlement
No one is ever happy with a list just understand that
100% “Thriller” by Michael Jackson should be Number 1 on the list it was a cosmic shift within not only music but the world in general it was a true cultural reset Lauryn Hill’s best work is not even better than Michael’s 2nd or 3rd best work let alone freaking THRILLER!!! that’s just factual.👑🎯💯(Also I must say the biggest snub from this entire list is having Taylor Swift album “1989” (Taylor’s Version) instead of Coldplay’s “Parachutes” or Jamiroquai’s “Travelling Without Moving”)
Look who it is😂
@@BluEx22329yessirski!😂🤝🏽
Respect to the Jamiroquai shout out, but the downplaying of Lauryn Hill is actually crazy.
While I agree Micheal Jackson's Thriller should be #1, downplaying Lauryn Hill's work takes creditability away from your opinion.
@@iraford5788 Where did I downplay Lauryn Hill’s album??? I just said her best work which ever it is ain’t better than MJ’s 2nd or 3rd Best work and that’s just facts take it how you want to take it I’m standing on what I said! I’m not gonna pacify things that aren’t facts as much as I love and adore Lauryn’s album there’s much validity in that statement!
Compiling any list is impossible, because everyone has their own list, it's an impossible task.
Actually it's not...they just need to find the right people to come up with the list...this was just chasing clicks...
Blueprint is an amazing album, but higher than illmatic? cmon
FACTS!!!!!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@osmosisbless Hard Knock is a trash record. No one is speaking on that album. And after the whole Diddy thing Jay is looking suspect in these streets
@@osmosisbless hard knock life isn’t on the blueprint lol
facts
Illmatic = poetic, but BORING
The Blueprint = NOT boring; super soulful Kanye and JustBlaze production
TPAB not being here is actually blasphemous and renders the list invalid. If gkmc is top 10, tpab is top 5
I knew this list was invalid when GRODT was revealed at 82. Top 5 album ever, #1 hip-hop album ever. Most impactful, influential, cultural, game-changing hip-hop album which launched the most dominant run in hip-hop ever. All 18 songs could have been made a hit Single.
GKMC is better than TPAB, only sweaty music nerds think that TPAB is better.
Lauryn Hill first before Thriller? Come on, give us a break.
Exactly, Lauryn’s album was great but Thriller should have been #1
Because it's the #1 seller or you think it's actually better music?
Lauryn hill is way better artisticly
YES.
Thriller isnt a good album. Lots of skips. Off the Wall is better MJ album.
Lauryn Hill\s album is waaay better.
@@Musicmaneuverscap 🧢
No TPAB in that list is still crazy
I don’t listen to Kendrick…. TPAB when I listened to the album,it’s a BS…. Not even a Wayne album it’s TPAB!!!! Rubbish
bruh Graduation and Watch the throne is a better album
Thriller had to be no.1 and where was Off The Wall or Bad? Surely one of these had to be in the list also.
yes agree.
Having usher confessions at 95 and blonde at 5 is ludacrous
The Blueprint viewed as more impactful and important to hip hop than Low End Theory is the biggest joke I have ever seen…
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
And Illmatic just a joke
What? Jay-Z is way bigger and way more impactful than A Tribe Called Quest. And Blueprint is arguably his best album. That’s not a joke, that’s actually very accurate.
@jasonmahr5397 you said arguably which contradict your own statement
My Top 10 Albums List
1. Michael Jackson- Thriller
2. The Beatles- Abby Road
3. Marvin Gaye- What’s Going On
4. Prince & the Revolution- Purple Rain
5. Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon
6. Stevie Wonder- Songs in the Key of Life
7. Nas- Illmatic
8. Miles Davis- Kind of Blue
9. Sade- Love Deluxe
10. Nirvana- Nevermind
would switch up a few, but all these albums were definitely game changers, and were amaaaaazingg
That list is fire.
I think the Nas disrespect is CRAZY. For there to be multiple rap albums in front of Illmatic..and some 30 spots higher on the list is criminal.
The representation for Hip Hop on this list is the only good thing. Other than that, so many great Artists didn't even get one spot which is unbelievable, NO BRUNO, NO LINKIN PARK, NO DEBARGE, NO LUTHER, NO JODECI..TOO MANY GREATS ARE MISSING
Beyoncé's Lemonade made the top 10 lol 🤣🤣
?
Absolutely insane.. it’s not even her best album..
That album was trash.
@@lylebob That album was trash.
facts! Pure garbage!
lil wayne carried itunes for a minute. no carter 3 is crazy.
Mariah Carey has no skips and had a big impact on hip hop and R&b and got Jay-Z his first #1, Donna Summer had a great body work, Whitney Houston has the highest selling female album,she has 10 songs on her first 2 albums there's only one skip each. one of her albums is still charting 30 years later she broke records.
No Diana Ross and the Supremes they had hits back to back?
Katy Perry definitely had no skips she was ruling with lady Gaga.
Eminem was definitely pulling numbers.
It's the fact that most of these albums they have good songs but some of them don't have big international hits and impactful songs like thriller.
And I'm surprised there's no Britney Spears.
No list is perfect, but at least make is somewhat respectable. For starters I reordered Apple Music’s top 10 albums of all time.
1. Thriller - Michael Jackson
2. Abbey Road - The Beatles
3. Songs in the Key of Life - Stevie Wonder
4. Purple Rain - Prince
5. Nevermind - Nirvana
6. Miseducation - Lauryn Hill
7. Good Kid, mAAd city - Kendrick Lamar
8. Back to Black - Amy Winehouse
9. Lemonade - Beyonce
10. Blonde - Frank Ocean
Having young people involved isn’t a good excuse why the list is bad. Just have requirements and standards. Also no album under 5 years should on the list. That’s way too early to determine where it stacks up against ALL TIME albums.
Frank ocean should be in top 20 or 30 including Beyoncés Lemonade
Exactly
Never will be tired of talking about it- K-Dot fan
TPAB is Kendrick best album and the best album since 2010.
The list makes sense if you have conversations with people from different generations. My 29yo, 18yo, and 16 yo made their arguments.
Take Care, 2001 > The Chronic
•No Weeknd, Wayne, DMX or Mariah Carey really don’t make sense.
•Was there a rule that a artist couldn’t be on the list twice ?!?
Beyonce was on there twice
The carter 3 ain't top 100 album is crazy that flooded the streets and birthed a generation of rappers we see today from dreadlocks to face tatts to autotune smh sad to see
KANYE WEST GRADUATION SHOULDVE BEEN INSTEAD OF BLONDE ALBUM
Michael jackson thriller will alway be number of all times no list will tell me otherwise
FACTS! 🔥 🔥
I love Nadeska ❤
The list was trash. To have to No Whitney and Mariah was really insane. I also think Lil Wayne and Nicki should’ve been on that list too.
The carter 3 forsure should have been on there it revived rap
And even tho he canceled , tp2 should b there , I ain’t see it
Whitney never had a good album. She was a singles artist through and through. A very good one
Wayne for sure… I could do without Nicki.. mariah, Alicia and Whitney for sure deserved to be on there
Not Nicki Minaj. She is yet to have a “great album” Give me a Nicki album and try to place it higher than 90% of the top 100 albums listened here please. Some artists are just hit makers, and she’s one of them. At least Mariah and Lil Wayne have a critically acclaimed album. Whitney does not have one either but I can see her being on here for her impact.
Justin Biebers Purpose is 🔥
TPAB not being on here is criminal.
What's that ?
@@noname-nobody1247 you know what it is, stop playing lol
@@001KhyNot everyone listens to kendrick nor to rap so get out of your echo chamber
@@ostideciboire4705 that’s an obvious statement, not sure how that’s makes what I said invalid though.
@@001Khyu think everyone listens to kendrick?
No Whitney, Mariah, DMX, Isley Brothers etc. You got Frank Ocean at 5? But Confessions at 95? You got MBDTF at #26 above #32 Ready to die, #37 Enter The Wu, #39 ILLMATIC, Get Rich, MM Lp, no Life After Death. This list is garbage. Theres nothing powerful about this list.
Marvin Gaye Whats going on is not in that list, but a Drake album is...that tells you everything.
😂💯
It actually is on the list at #17
@@CristianBarbosa-mq3ww still terrible
@@CristianBarbosa-mq3ww It should be top 10
@@CristianBarbosa-mq3ww great! TPAB then.
No Nicki, no Katy Perry, no Whitney Houston, no Mariah…. This list is insane
Nicki 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You lost me in Nicki and Katty Perry but WH and MC is a must
Y’all angry about your favorite artist not getting more love. The criteria was this 23:34 I don’t agree with the list but I understand
I don't think it's just about favourites, there are objectively great albums that are missing. It doesn't make any sense.
I can't stand behind 'Collage Dropout' by Kanye West not being a top 10 Album. Replace 'Blonde' by Frank Ocean with Collage Dropout. What are we doing? 💚
When Low is not disagreeing with anything, it’s a good day
I love how they experiment with different genres while still staying true to their sound. Btw would love to see you react on end up dead by Nick Thurl
You can't argue about what should have been on the list if you're only listening to one or two genres from two or three decades.
Ready To Die or All Eyes On Me should be the number one hip-hop album of all time
Took me a while to find this comment! Nothing compares!
maybe hip-hop, but you gotta understand that they were doing ALL genres, so it's pretty hard to just place all albums where you wanna
@@sh1kes understand that and appreciate your comment. I just feel they should be ahead of any other hip hop album in that list, but it’s also impossible with such a generational gap between fans to align on this.
There is too many gernes of music to make one of these lists. Its always going to upset everyone. The other music communities also hated this list and complained about artist getting left out.
Music is subjective. While it's good to be critical I think a list put together with people choosing what they naturally gravitate toward would be more culturally accurate when accessing what overlaps generationally . Instead of being cornered into what you believe is important to other people that are also choosing based on what they believe is important to other people. Yes, everyone knows healthy food choices but how often or how many people make it majority of their diet?
TPAB should be above Miseducation, RESPECTFULLY! Y'all are just helping promote her upcoming album. Spotify is still better by the way.
What new album? 😗
She dropping
Nah, Miseducation is simply just a much more timeless album then TPAB imo.
what?? lol 😂
Where to even vote?
I love the fact we have a number 1 hip hop R&B Album as number 1
One Love Album by Bob Marley is the best and greatest album ever made, only fools think otherwise.
why was SOS on that list. Why was ctrl NOT on that list 😭
ctrl wasnt as impactful as SOS, ctrl is great but its a numbers game
@@user-qf4vo2qy9m this list wasn't about numbers and the SOS numbers are contrived bc she was doing witchcraft to get them. The impact Ctrl can never even be measured that album changed ppl.
I honestly feel that My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy should have been in the top 10
This is a bad list. Sorry. No Bob Marley? No Ice Cube? No Pearl Jam? No Whitney? Man I can go on and on about the reasons why. But i will stop…. lol
Bob Marley & The Wallers is number 46 with Exodus
@@LizethLara-sx6lv Oh I didn’t see that! My bad! Haha
@@LizethLara-sx6lv billie Eilish album is ranked in the top 32 cmon man. She is way too new to the industry
23:34 With that criteria TPAB must be in there...
Life After Death was completed while Biggie was alive
I speak for everyone when I say the list is TRASH!
Why when talking about the Kendrick some other picks it felt like they had to pick what they thought was the best of all their albums but I’m confused on that part. So because they picked GKMC, TPAB couldn’t be on the list? Other people had multiple albums on the list, so what was the rule?
No Madvillainy is crazy. RIP DOOM
The Weeknd not being on there is a crime
I understand music is all opinionated but carter 3 not being a top 100 album of all time is just crazy to me I get it there always gonna be albums that don’t make it there’s more than 100 great albums but carter 3 literally saved saved and changed rap whether u think it was for the better or worse
Kendricks GKMC has been my number 1 album for a LONG time. I'm biased but I'm glad to see it in the top 10.
No weekend album?
When the young and the old come together to make lists this is the result but stays true is that great music is recognized by all - the positioning just changes based on the culture.
As someone who loves TPAB, it was the album that got me into rap, I can see why they put Good Kid on there instead, I listen to that album more then I listen to TPAB, even though I think TPAB is a better album.
23:17 I wouldn’t consider Life After a posthumous album in that it was completed before BIG’s demise. A posthumous album in the sense you have described has to be something that was made with leftover material that the artists didn’t have input on
100 Percent with a 9 year Vacation vacancy
Do they address TPAB in this?
No, but Ebro talked about it briefly in the recent full discussion video of the list
@@nomfymoloiI saw that and his response was pathetic tbh
@@thomasjames456Right. His argument was that it wasn’t as accessible. But there’s plenty of other albums on that list aren’t the most accessible either. Was Alright not an anthem?
Apple Music to the team: let's make a list of best-of albums so ridiculous and biased that we drive away all our subscribers...Mission accomplished 😂
there should be at least two Michael Jackson albums on that list though, after seeing some other artists have two, :)
No Outkast
27:04 Poetic Justice 🔊
Congratulations to all The Musicians who were ranked 100th!!
This is a very surprising and welcome event!!!🎉
I became more interested in the music that I mentioned
I wish you an infinite development in Apple Music
CONGRATULATIONS ❤!!!
It’s all New Yorkians voting 😂😂🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️😂
No Whitney or Mariah on the list at all makes zero sense!!!!‼️‼️‼️‼️
If it's one thing Ebro gonna do is cut Nedeska off while she making a point
I'm glad you mentioned Carole Kings TAPESTRY- that album is sosoossososososoosos good and this is coming from a curious young person who stumbled upon this discovery. YOU need to listen to it. trust me. She even had an exclusive Concert being released live from Manhattan from the 70s recently never before seen and it is awsome .. her energy and approachability is gold. also found out through: ---- 1971: The Year That Music Changed Everything ----- Documentary how her music and had an impact. must watch
19:00 should streaming era albums be compared with pre streaming albums when it comes to numbers?
No lil wayne carter 3 no nicki minaj pink friday no kanye west graduation or college dropout album on the best 100 album list that's a joke
Given the description of what to vote for, TPAB definitely fits the criteria more than GKMC 22:20
_MOZART IS SMOKIN' ON YO TOP 5_
_WOLF GANG_ 🐺
_WOLF GANG_ 🐺
_WOLF GANG_ 🐺
What about Elton John, U2, Phill Collins, Green Day, Linkin Park, Coldplay?
only talking about billboard chart numbers instead of anything else within the albums themselves when comparing sza to eminem tells me all I need to know about how these albums are voted in...
Honestly not seeing Kid Cudi- Man on the moon End of Day is on this list is very disappointing. Literally influenced the next generation of artists
TPAB 🧐🧠❤ is for a narrow audience those who either deeply invested in hiphop, know music or straight up have a good taste, as kendrick put it:"5% will comprehend but 95 is lost"
When you look at it by genre GKMC being the best hip hop album ever is crazy.
“When it feel like livin's harder than dyin'
For me givin' up's way harder than tryin'
Lauryn Hill say her heart was in Zion
I wish her heart still was in rhymin'
'Cause who the kids gon' listen to? Huh?
I guess me if it isn't you” - Kanye.
Like Andre 3000, I think Lauryn Hill should also do an interview these days to share some personal insights and perspectives.
I have my problems with the list but I love music so much that I appreciate it nonetheless and I agree with several picks placements. I think my biggest complaint is that they probably should’ve just stuck with one album per artist because some artists got 2 spots and that kinda made it more controversial I think lol.
I'm sorry but Channel Orange > Blonde
Honestly, i love seeing Blond by Frank Ocean that high up. Also A Seat At The Table by Solange not being in the top 10 or even top 20 is shocking to me. But i guess they are right...there can never really be total consensus on a list like this. The lauryn Hill album being number 1 though is definetly not surprising, such a timeless record.
Honestly, you couldn't go wrong with the topic here this week. A conversation about the best albums of all time? And also on the heels of some of the best rap music, and should I say just music in general? With Kendrick and Drake provoking each other to give us the best rap s*** I've heard in Years. I was shocked yet very happy to see Lauren hill at number 1. But honestly the coolest thing that i've gotten from all of this is the fact that you can go to apple type in top one hundred and literally listen to all one hundred of the greatest albums of all time.
Tpab man that changed lives
Illmatic was considered the best hip hop album ever for foreeeeeever. For it to be so low on this list compared to other hip hip albums is crazy
The only positive aspect of this list is that it has gotten my late 90’s born self going back to some legendary projects but other than that the list itself is terrible.
The fact the Bob Marley album “ Legend “ is not on here is crazy & delusional
ebro, my goodness!
What impact has Frank Ocean brought to R&B?
Prison sentence aside, R. Kelly should be there
Very disappointed that Aaliyah's "One in a million" didn't make this list!! That album is arguably one of most influential albums of its genre, and has certainly changed how we listened to r&b/pop music.
I love how they talked about Kendrick but didn’t address the bs that is TPAB not being on this list.
Found where 2pac was on the list, despite the how many artists reference that album and can't compete with that type of double disc album body of work. I know people love The Chronic but it was basically a diss album towards Easy-E. I brought Frank Ocean's album Blonde this year however, sonically Orange Channel is more upbeat and easy to listen to, and don't mind asking someone to play this in their car, Blonde is mostly self listening to.
This list Bs
Tiffany Red says that Cassie had a video from the hotel. That the hotel gave her a copy.
Modern times listen to Lauren hill and Erykah for Baduism and compare the 2 it’s a long day.
its a weird list but the top 5 is agreeable as far as these kind of lists go tbh even though I personally wouldve made some other picks
