The only ones of those I really agree with are Newsom and Holter, sorry Scaruffi. There are other albums I'd consider exceptional though.

TPAB is considered by 90% of people the greatest album of the decade. Salad Days, Blonde, Money Store, MBDTF, Powers that B, GKMC, If You're Reading This It's Too Late are also up there.

>>73341818
The word "hype" wasn't enough to describe the media assault on the sprawling 80-minute To Pimp a Butterfly (2015), another meticulously crafted album that employed legions of writers, producers and musicians (including jazz pianist Robert Glasper and jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington). Six people wrote Wesley's Theory, including George Clinton, and four produced it, including Flying Lotus. Nine people are credited as writers for the funk-fest King Kunta, making it de facto a collage. The producers threw in more live instruments, resulting in a sound that is more revivalist than innovative, but also a sound that helps the general theatrical atmosphere. For better and for worse, The Blacker the Berry is the epitome of this emphatically pointless but fashionable avant-jazz-rap music. I begins as an olf-fashioned synth-pop hit of the 1980s before it begins to sound like a James Brown parody (with the lyrics "the number one rapper in the world" and "i love myself") accented by a jovial piano figure. The best psychodrama is possibly one of the simplest songs, the melodic funk-soul These Walls, and the best political sermon the equally straightforward funk ditty Hood Politics. But the music is secondary to the histrionics and it doesn't matter that the catchy and danceable Alright stands in opposition of the industrial beat that derails Momma, a fact that could account for at least eclecticism. This is a superficial and, ultimately, middle-of-the-road album from an artist who lacks the visceral energy of Public Enemy and Tackhead while also lacking the poetic depth of Kanye West and the musical genius of El-P. He tries to be all of them at once, but maybe he would be most credible if he were just himself: a brilliant script-writer of fictionalized real-life stories: the Christian parable How Much a Dollar Cost presents God disguised as a homeless man, and Mortal Man interviews the ghost of dead rapper 2Pac.

>it's popular so it's bad
Pause B
We're talking musical merit here. These are the best records that defined this generation for me. These are what we listen to the 2010s generation. They're the best records we have and equivalent to our Beatles, Pink Floyd, Nirvana whatever but for todays youth. Maybe you're a bit older and don't get hip hop or are just a racist, and that's ok man. But remember hip hop is the sound of today and TPAB was the best hip hop album of the decade and many critics agree and so does an entire generation of music listeners. Name a bad track on any of those they're highly regarded for a reason, but your close minded rockist bias is preventing you from seeing that.

>These are the best records that defined this generation for me. These are what we listen to the 2010s generation. They're the best records we have and equivalent to our Beatles, Pink Floyd, Nirvana whatever but for todays youth.
I don't think you actually know what rockism is since you're so intent to discuss albums.

>>73342048
Rockism = bias against non rock genres

Hip hop is not rock in the slightest. Rockists hate hip hop probably for racial reasons but they also hate electronic music.

It's not even Mac's best album

I actually agree, but it is his most well known and widespread, so it introduces more people to Mac and is a great sampler of the mood his music creates.

Whats the best album from every year from the 10's?

>>73341652
I want to like Archandroid but it's not as good as the hype led me to believe

>>73342828
Have One On Me
Tragedy

Salad Days

Haven't heard a good album from 2017 yet

>>73341745
And you've likely listened to 99% of those albums once.

What an incredibly accurate foundation for critique.

>>73342876

Come on man
How many albums have you listened to from this year? Honestly I think 2017 is already better than 2016.

>>73342932
He's unironically a better songwriter than most of /mu/'s favourite artists, also I don't really bother keeping up with new music. I've only heard 6 albums from 2014 and 2 from 2017

>>73342828
2010 - Have One on Me
2011 - Space Is Only Noise
2012 - Luxury Problems
2013 - Shaking the Habitual
2014 - Nothing Important
2015 - Pomegranates
2016 - Sirens, for lack of a better choice
2017 - so far maybe Common as Light

Someone please recommend 2012, 2014 and 2016 music because I'm not satisfied with those choices.

>>73342828

>>73342828

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Let England Shake
Channel Orange
Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City
To Pimp a Butterfly
Carrie & Lowell
Blackstar

>>73343087
didnt he hate replica?

>>73343108
Doesn't matter, he still exposed you to it. I listened to it during my branching phase from Aphex and I was utterly unimpressed. And I like SUNN O))) too, which it irks me that he worships

>>73341818
>i share a board with this people
the day cannot be worse

Shaking the Habitual is still top 3 for sure. Cherry on top is my favorite track.

Fleet Foxes -Helplessness Blues
Angel Olsen - MY WOMAN
Alt-J - An Awesome Wave
Beach House - Bloom
Whitney - Light Upon The Lake
Sun Kil Moon - Benji
Lower Dens - Twin-Hand Movement
Bon Iver - Bon Iver

TPAB might be the best album of the decade, but most people don't think that...at all. It's not as accessible, takes several listens to fully appreciate, and only has a couple radio singles.

Most people like DAMN. and GKMC over TPAB...

You can do both. I use reviews as an introduction to new music, or I'm more patient with critically acclaimed albums that I don't enjoy as much on my first listen. From there, Spotify and /mu/ suggest enough new shit to keep me busy.
