Yeah, I probably am but I remember watching a news special comparing his "brand" (that hurt) and profitability to the likes of Elvis's.

Damn son, I wasn't supporting her reaping of Kurt's posthumous revenue...just surprised she wasn't on the list for that reason

Oh and why is Courtney Love not up there (assuming that she meets the criteria of the title 'musician')? Does she not get that Kurt/Nirvana money anymore? Or did I miss out on some litigated shit-show that took those rights away from her?

Damn, damn, damn Dre, You could at least slip in a decently witty product reference like "flow sharper than Gilette, etc..." in a verse on the album and avoid estranging lifelong fans that have put you on a musical pedestal that transcends "rapper". Maybe Big Boi should get Converse to sponsor a song, then you'd be on board right? We still admire you greatly, it's just getting frustrating Sincerely yet lovingly, Outkast Fans

Fuck the significance, I still think Slanted & Enchanted is the definitive and best executed Pavement album. It just breathed that "lazy yet surrounded by nuanced complexities" that became the staple of the band. "Summer Babe" comes straight out the gate and sets the context for the rest of the album, with "Here" being the only detour. Stephen's distortion sounds so pleasantly messy and I think Pavement are at their strongest when Mark Ibold's bass is as prominent as it is on this one. If "Frontwards" would've only been written for this album then it would be no-contest.

Wait, where the FUCK is Grizzly Bear? Oh...sorry, still emerged in the wonderment of that stream. Probably should stay away from lists

Regardless of the nonsense, I'd still vote LDR over Palin if it came down to it #LanaA$AP2020

Add Poolside "Slow Down" to this and you'd have a playlist ideal for that Beach Boy's calendar photo.

That sounded like a lot of haterade, apologies. Just stating that of recent the AOTW has been a lesser known album that S'gum wants to shed light on rather than re-praise a more talked about album (Fiona Apple, etc.), which I have no qualm with. With DIIV and this debuting, it's shaping up to be a strong week of albums, so everyone really wins. Also R Kelly stepped out the closet to record something, and that's never a bad thing.

I read they're working on a new album but haven't set any sort of time-table. Time has always been irrelevant to Boards

I'll add my "Best Quote About 90s Rapper Never Returning to His Alter Ego": "Yo I'm never returning to my 'Ice Ice' shit, fuck that. Unless Adam Sandler's wife requests me for one of his films"- Vanilla Ice
