Doggystyle not in the top 7 is absolute madness. Me against the World...come on...stop playing.
Me Against The World is Pac’s best album imo…

Just seen G Rap ‘4,5,6’ on the list though which doesn’t really get a lot of love but is a fukking great album

Pitchfork prides itself on being divisive and contrarian for no good reason.

Let's not forget this is also the same publication that went back to edit reviews to be positive instead of negative in an attempt to portray they were "ahead of the curve" and knew an act was good all along.

Tons of hilariously stupid calls here, but on the other hand there was a time when I never would have expected to see Mista Don't Play or something from Armand Hammer (wrong album but hey) on a list like this, so I give it props for that.

Infamous at #1 is actually a pretty cool call and I'm glad Illmatic is no longer the default pick, because I never liked it that much

Top 5 is not bad, but pitchfork is all about shock value on crack since they got bought by Condé Nast. The indie rock/pop things are still OK though

Whilst I respect them not going for the usual same old, same old names, and actually including some modern classics, there are not 99 hip hop albums better than Doggystyle.

This really shouldn't even be discussed, pitchfork is obviously looking for attention they don't deserve

This is what I always say.

People start throwing chairs and getting mad over these lists. They're done for a reason. And that's just for attention. And they're usually put together by people who aren't even Hip Hop. You can't fall for the bullsh*t.
