I swear you posted the same exact list on my old thread. Yep, there it is.

My comment about Lizard still stands. Not KC's worst album, since I recently listened to their album of completely improvised material and wanted to shoot myself in the head about a quarter of the way through. But second worst is still nothing to brag about.

Admittedly, I haven't listened to anything else you put in your first position, so hopefully they're not on the quality level of Lizard. Your other choices I can agree with, even though I would personally put Procul Harum's debut over anything else they've ever done and I think The Door's debut and L.A. Woman is better than The Soft Parade.

lets break down this retarded statement. Normies are people who are part of the norm, they follow the norms of society and are sheep. Ye can't be a normie without being a sheep, but lets break it down further goy.

Yeah cus niggers hooting and hollering whilst making a half assed attempt to rhyme about being criminal scum with repetitive 4/4 time sig noise in the background is ''music''. The shit could be called poetry but keep in mind that doesn't make it good poetry.

^ Yes, the majority of rap we hear on the radio is more or less how you described it. It's very jejune party music for casual surface music listeners. People who dig deep into music would rarely waste time listening to chart toppers that consist of some egocentric arrogant materialistic guy with illusory superiority repeating himself behind a very basic/unoriginal heavily recycled looped beat. :P

So I have a lot of respect for the bands and musicians AG posted, and I will seriously consider checking some of those albums out for myself. I'm a bass lover so anything w/ nice bass is amazing. :) Noticed the Primus album up there. I like what I have heard from them and really enjoy the fact that Les Claypool doesn't play his bass as an electric guitar, but as its own instrument.

For some reason not many rock bassists seem to do that.

And yes I know not all rap is so bad, so I specifically explained that I'm referring to radio/mainstream rap.

AG, I cant say I am on the same page as you when it comes to deciding the order of albums 42 - 13 and 10 - 3, nor do I agree with all your selections.

However, I do agree that Lizard cannot be viewed as music, it sounds more or less like trains colliding and the brakes of my bike during rainy weather.

One album I would recommend you, in return, is:
HEAD HUNTERS by Herbie Hancock

Regardless of your usual musical preference I dare say its a good listen. The songs take some time to build up, especially my favorite
Chameleon

The other songs this album contains are also of a high standard, and provides colour and quality to an already exiting selection of Funk/Soul albums in your list.

Regarding Hip-Hop, as all other genres of music, it comes down to taste. However, the new generation of rappers all sounds like a mixture of injured dogs and random noises made by me closing my tray for cutlery. Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly does however appear to me as a worthy addition to this list at nr. 4 as it is perhaps the magnum opus of the rap genre, and thus an album to listen to, for insight, if nothing else.

Another thing people who like mainstream music only really like it because it's all they really know, and people tend to gravitate towards music they're familiar with.

@Wednesday, grow up. Congratulations for being a unique special princess, I guess that is why you are still single.

It comes definitely down to taste more than anything. I am glad someone acknowledge good rap, like Kendrick, rather than shit rap that has been coming out like some/most grime.

Also really depends on your age and how much drugs you consume.

>unique and special princess

my guy you are among the bugmen who pretend like rap is such a nuanced genre even though it is all invariably the same crap, even the themes and lyrics are all the same; not only could rap artists not make it as legit composers but they can't even write poetry.

@Wulfhere a short guide to how you can prove yourself wrong:

    1: Open Google
    2: Enter "Kendrick Lamar Pulitzer"
    3: Press enter
    4: View results
    5: Re-open Google
    6: Enter "Pulitzer prize definition"
    7: Press enter
    8: Read

Obviously you are either lacking the mental capacity to know that there are nuances to almost everything, or you are simply one of those bugmen that lacks culture.

@Great Cobra Thanks dude

Also they just hand out their hollywood prizes to people who peddle propaganda. Kendrick Lamar hates his white fans and whites by the way.

Product doesn't work as expected
Songs were great but I listened to them all and did not die. I might be missing some B-sides on the Pokemon album, though. Really had high hopes for this collection.
