Opossum Out.
Yeah, this album isn't saying much, but hip-hop today is in a pretty decent place. Though it's not the golden age, I'd say the past five years in rap music has been a vast improvement upon the previous decade, that is 98 - 08.
Also, brief note on skits: The skits in the videos are helpful and scene setting. I know they're kinda on the outs in a lot of hip-hop these days, but they definitely add depth and atmosphere. Would've been worthwhile to include in the album. Just a thought.
Nothing awesome here but nothing not.
Still an opossum though. Out.
Well if he doesn't like art-rock, then why would he pick St. Vincent? He wouldn't. It's art-rock. Quit hitting yourself.
Though she did make a great album.
Also, the Beck album is fantastic. If he didn't have a history of being so genre-bending and innovative, then I think people would be more receptive to this intro-spective Sea Change "return." It's awesome.
Opossum will listen to Oxymoron now. Opossum out.
You know, pitying someone is probably the meanest thing you can do to them. Well, with the noted exception of blaming someone for their biological condition, reinforcing outdated and stupid stereo-types about drug use, only providing worthless anecdotal evidence to support those claims, and slandering a good name out of resentment over his/her success.
Posting under this comment intentionally just so people will read mine:
THIS IS LITERALLY THE WORST LIST THAT HAS EVER BEEN COMPILED.
Get cheesed, NME.
Opossum out.
Spring Breakers is at #7, but those girls are the cover of the article. Since when does something other than #1 get that at Stereogum?...Oh since hot girls mean clicks...
Fucked up. Thought better.
Awesome list though, really cool idea.
Opossum out.
The dude released 30 something studio albums, 20 of which are good. There are 10 slots. 5 need to be allotted to the mid-60s trilogy.
When push comes to shove, Nashville Skyline just has to step off.
SO STEP OFF, CHARLES.
Opossum out.
