It's a list of mediocre, overhyped albums.
>>
>>65471702
not exactly. most of those albums do suck and shouldn't be anywhere near being considered the best album of the year

Super dope list of contentless adjectives you've put together there anon
>>
>>65471569
every genre has it's artists and songs that might be enjoyable to some, but unfulfilling and unsatisfying to most. In short, the musical equivalent to Mcdonald's can be found everywhere you look.

>>65471612

BP is literally the only album on there that can compete for AOTY

Offering nothing of significance, simply by the numbers.

>>65471960
mediocre is a great description for quality
>>
McDonald's still does great business but they are becoming really unpopular with young adults. Even those who don't care about healthy eating avoid Mickey's because its low quality food. The "cool" fast food places are like Five Guys and Chipotle. So even comparing it to top 40 wouldn't be accurate.

I'd say dadrock, buttrock and pop country.

Looks shitty but is actually top tier? A lot of contemporary jazz fits that category by most peoples' opinions of album art.

Do you really think Sleep Cycle is some super deep, complex music?

no one said that retard, do you think sleep cycle is heavily marketed and appreciated by children
>>
>>65471856
I tried listening to that about a month ago. It felt like the song was just trying to test my patience, just more contemporary, "you won't get this" bullshit. 4th dimensional Mickie D's
>>
>>65472124
doubtful. most people would be able to interpret what someone means when they say mediocre. 75% of those albums fit that description.
>>
>>65471856
only thing worse than those garbage albums is people with this shit. the people who tout work like this are wasting everyones time
>>
>>65471569
All the generic rap that's so popular now
>>
>>65472073
No, but it is possibly the least-advertised album I've listened to this year.

I don't think very many actual children are not only into AnCo, but big enough fans that they've listened to AnCo's least known member's EP that was exclusively released on cassette to backers of a 2009 kickstarter.

>>65472225
most people can certainly grasp the general meaning of a term but without surrounding them with anything else it offers nothing of any value
how do you reach the decision that 75% (arbitrary) of those albums are mediocre and overrated
