Great list but what the hell is going on with the #1 pick?
What is it with these (often white) hipsters putting Kanye so high on their lists when the rest is composed of lo-fi indie bands? Honestly, it doesn’t make sense, like an die-hard Of Montreal fan going on and on about how great Chief Keef is.
I’ve yet to meet anyone over the age of 21 who legitimately thinks Kanye West makes good music.
inb4 ‘I listen to a wide-array of music’. No, you just try too hard.
And goddamn that Rihanna song is so fucking stupid, “Shine Bright lie DIIIIIImond” just an illuminating hook.
u crazy stony baloney, remix is JAM
Kayne’s last record was uniformly the best reviewed album of the year and on the top 10 list of pretty much every major publication out there (I’d venture to say the majority of which are staffed by people over 21). On the other hand some person on the internet named Stony Jackson thinks he sucks.
I agree with Stoney.
