The album had connectivity almost felt like one great song from beginining to end. like a movie, just a soundtrack ramping up and down at integral moments. straight classic.

Its funny that Lauren would be highest rated hiphop album all time on this list but you'd probably never see it ranked number 1 on a straight hiphop only list. but rolling stone is cacs though so :yeshrug:

Some those albums like Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon which was acoustically way ahead of it's time should be ranked much higher.

MJ's Off the Wall and D'Angelo's Brown Sugar album are noticeably entirely to low as well.

Then they got some other stuff like Beyonce's Lemonade album ranked entirely to high.

This is simply other people's opinion though, so I'll let it live.
