u need to to put it in context. that year belong to bruno not kanye.
Sure lets do that
Doowops and Hooligans- Metacritic (61)
Peak Position (3) 2x Platinum by the end of that year
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy- Metacritic (94). Peak Position (1) (2x Platinum) by the end of that year
MBDTF not only charted higher and was MUCCCHH more acclaimed critically. It ended up selling the same. Again, Kanye deserved both the nom AND win for AOTY. Bruno Mars has less of a claim to the 2012 AOTY award than he did when he stole it from Kendrick in 2018.
