Why wasn’t Cudi’s first album as recognized as Legend of Mr. Rager? The new album is clearly not as good, yet critics are hoppin all over that band wagon. Beach House’s Teen Dream is one of the best albums i’ve heard all year. People need to stop hating on Kanye. He’s the best fucking producer in the game right now, and MBDTF is much more innovative than anything he has done in the past. The Suburbs definitely deserves to be up there. As far as Spin goes, I’ve never read one issue. Judging by the list, it seems like have a decent taste in music, but still appeal to the masses. I will always be a RS fan. And if you think RS hasn’t been as politically active from the get-go as it was about music then you are a moron. Remember, Hunter S. Thompson was one of their most recognized writers for a while.

I can’t believe Man on the Moon didn’t make top 25. Cudi speaks some of the truest shit I’ve ever heard in a while. I guess he did punch that guy in the face (too soon?).
