The problem is, you're describing artists not albums. Some of these artists should be on a top 100 list but not necessarily a single album from their discography.
this is true but lemonade was a movie where we were both listening and watching for the first time. her self titled album was different in that she dropped several different visuals (music videos) and the audio separately. it was just a different experience. either way beyoncé has done things nobody else has lol
I always put her Self Titled album above because that album changed the way music is consumed and released for all artists in the industry. Not talked about enough.
Correction: Bday is actually Beyonce’s first visual album, every music has a music video, but Self-titled was the first to drop both music and videos at the same time. Also, it’s Daddy Lessons not Daddy issues
@@RenR70 What does that even mean? The three main tracks from thriller have over a billion views in total on yt despite being from 42 years ago and have billion stream each on Spotify, the album is still highly regarded and talked about in most circles.
This is unacceptable. The creators of this list don’t care enough about black music to have not placed TPAB in the top 50. I’m fact this is the first time I haven’t seen TPAB on a top 100 produced by a publication such as this. They mention 3:09 how Beyoncé has a way of bringing all the black aspects to her album lemonade and it doesn’t touch TPAB + To put any jay z album on here and not TPAB is ridiculous.
The Beatles are the songbook of life. You said it Zane. No other artist comes close. Miseducation is a great album but The Beatles are on another level when you consider their influence, diversity, creativity, technical innovation and musicianship.
Thriller has unrivaled sales, critical acclaim, global cultural impact and longevity. It has to be the # 1 album for a variety of reasons whether it’s your favorite album or not.
Some Biggest snubs who had bigger cultural impact than some listed: Queen, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, TLC, Smokey Robinson, Black Sabbath, Green Day, Linkin Park.
Look, it (and Back To Black) are my personal faves of all time but I can understand where you’re coming from. Still, these lists are ALWAYS going to cause debate - this is the point 😊
Guys the whole point of this list is to get people talking and debating about music be respectful 🤝 what’s your favorite album? Mine is MBDTF- Kanye West
The funnest part about Frank Ocean being on the top 10 list is he genuinely couldn't give two **** about these accolades. Not only did he not submit blonde for the Grammys but If he was #1 on this list I doubt he would even show up for the suprise dinner
so what? do you think they’re doing for the artists? do you think they made this list to see what reaction michael jackson or prince or amy winehouse have? 0 brain cells
I’ll never agree with the order of these lists. However, the collective catalog of work this list highlights here deserves acknowledgment. Could I shift a few of the albums? Sure, but overall I really enjoyed this.
@@xrizbira Yes, folk, edm, house, techno, disco, reggaeton, reggae, are also underrepresented. So are non-western/non-english albums. The whole "one album per artist" rule is also odd. But it's still a mostly solid list of amazing bodies of work and most albums on that list deserve to be in the discussion for a top 100 listing (apart from 3-4 albums which were definitely placed as bait to create attention). The whole idea of creating a Top 100 Albums of all time list is an impossible feat bc you'll always forget something in some form. So let's just enjoy the fun discussion about these amazing albums and not get too hung up on "but album xyz is missing" or "this should be above this" bc we'll never fully agree on that.
I love Blonde it’s one of my favorite albums of all time. However! In no world is it above Songs in the Key of Life. Even Frank Ocean would agree Stevie’s music is above his.
Thriller should be #1. Probably one of the most influential albums of all time. Everyone in the world can sing a MJ song from that album, can’t say the same for Miseducation. (Lauryn Hill Miseducation is a beautiful album. But not as influential and impactful as Michael Jackson or The Beatles)
I can understand, it's a phenomenal record, though I think with those albums you can make an argument for both records being better than the other becuse rumours is also a phenomenal record
Because it’s better and something being older doesn’t inherently make it better. Rumors is an undeniable and influential album but in a world and time where things are blurry/mixed genre wise Blonde is the greatest representation of that. Listening to it top to bottom for the first time was a holy experience. It might feel like it’s too new to be up there but in 15 years I’m sure it would climb the rank even a little higher so Apple is smart to put it up there.
I just love how this top 100 albums list was missing these classics but put SZA, Drake, Travis Scott, Rihanna & Bad Bunny like cmon now Hybrid Theory - Linkin Park Come on Over - Shania Twain Access Memories - Daft Punk Stankonia - OutKast Off The Wall - MJ Bad - MJ Crazy, Sexy, Cool - TLC The Score - Fugees Diary - Alicia Keys Teenage Dream - Katy Perry The Eminem Show - Eminem Daydream - Mariah Carey Butterfly - Mariah Carey Falling Into You - Celine Dion The Velvet Rope - Janet Jackson Rhythm Nation - Janet Jackson
friendly reminder: music taste is subjective. rankings are not real. your fave albums will not disappear off the face of the earth if they are not ranked higher or at all by apple music. calm down. and also Kendrick stays winning 🥋⚫
Couldn't they find anything interesting to say? "Amazing, insane, astounding, miraculous" ok... tell me why. "I remember hearing it for the first time..." Yeah we get it, but it's not about you.
yo.. to say MJ was solely focused on his personal success is so inaccurate. Yes, he wanted to be the greatest but he was also focused on what that would mean for Black people. The cast of the music videos and how he allowed black groups to sample him, highlights his intentionality. I love Lauren but her solo album does not come close to Thriller. I say this as a 23 year old, there is no shift. Thriller is still number one. Every artist still speaks on the albums impact.
Thank you for this! It's time that we listen to whole records again. There is so much great music. I missed Metallica's Black Album, a Tom Petty Record and "Songs of Love and Hate" from Leonard Cohen. But i know it's difficult to make those lists.
it says more about Mariah Carey more than anything. She has amazing, timeless singles but a lot of her albums have unignorable low points, with songs that sound very derivative and shallow. One of the greatest vocalists ever, but the voice is just an instrument at the end of the day.
Shows this list wasn’t really talent based neither Celine or Whitney- and for jagged little pill to be added like a second thought!!! I was looking for Mariah Carey’s butterfly or the emancipation of Mimi- ooh… so disappointed!
Blonde at the #5 album of all time, in any category, is literally a disgrace to any credibility these “experts” have. This is coming from someone who listened to the album non-stop through my entire high-school years and who was a massive Ocean fan. The entire list is so absurd though. It’s created to rile people up just like The Rolling Stones list.

LEMONADE really is one of the best bodies of work of all time. a cohesive journey through the stages of grief weaved together with stellar vocals, insane production and poignant lyrics. it topped several best album lists in 2016, and best album of the decade lists in 2019, deservedly so. and the FILM! the poetry interspersed with each track to further push the narrative of generational trauma, infidelity, violence, grief and healing 😮💨 it’s heartbreaking. the acting, the sets, special effects, choreography, the looks, the cinematography… all stunningly breathtaking. it was unheard of at the time for an artist of that magnitude to STILL be pushing boundaries in such a way. fast forward to 2024 and she’s still doing the same with the reclamation trilogy. i’m grateful to live in a time where i can witness and fully appreciate the art.
the comments are so angry as if this isn’t just a ranking by a SMALL GROUP of people! it’s just their opinions, it’s okay lmao. nothing bad is gonna happen to your fave albums. they’re not gonna be deleted from streaming platforms if they’re not on the list. your personal memories attached to them aren’t gonna disappear. just like nothing good is gonna happen to these albums for being on the list. they’re not gonna suddenly sell 100K copies this week. apple just did this for engagement lmao
there’s nothing paradoxical, sarcastic or ironic about my comment. i meant what i said. this is simply a ranking by a select few people, that has no impact upon other groups of people’s opinions on these albums, nor does it impact the actual albums themselves. @user-yz1id7wc7q
You had trouble deciding between GKMC and TPAB for a top 10 spot, but then turned around and excluded TPAB from the Top 100 entirely? How does that make sense? PUT BOTH. Other artists/bands had 2 albums.

@@for-house-stark It’s a subjective list. Anything can be debated. Most music lists have Revolver or Sgt. Pepper’s by The Beatles or Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys at the top.

Blonde at 5 is wild. Sure it was big at the time and people still listen to it but I’ve grown cold on it in the last couple of years, perhaps mostly because of Frank’s weird behavior since then. It feels like an album that would take me an hour to explain to anyone the lore of that record to someone who isn’t familiar with Frank.
@@mikeshinoda703but the songs he wrote were the BIGGEST HITS on the album and he was still inducted into the songwriters hall of fame as one of the most successful songwriters of all time
I think Lemonade was a great album production wise. I’d probably put it in the top 20 but not 10. The College Dropout and TPAB should’ve made the list imo. I think a Red Hot Chili Pepper’s album, Coldplay and Gorillaz should’ve made the list too.
@@keithqueener2397 does the word prolific not mean that they are constantly releasing music? If so then Frank Ocean is about as much the opposite of prolific I can think of
Whoever put yall in charge made a huge mistake. Especially missing sgt pepper, in rainbows, rubber soul, and so many more. But the biggest dumb decision was putting a Taylor album at 18 ABOVE revolver , dark side, and so many much better things. Same with Billie at 30 tbh. When that’s not even her best album.
There will always be debates on this topic. I am actually really happy to see Lauryn Hill get props but I do not think that the album is the #1 album of all time. It could be within the top 20. Nile Rogers know that that album being put at #1 is cap. You can see it in his response. To me "Thriller" and "Songs in A Minor" are the unquestionables of this top 10.
@@frankalmanzar3492 Yeah! I feel like among the grunge community, and critics as well, Dirt is considered one of the, if not THE best album of that genre. So I’m surprised as well
The best ever musical album being made is "One Love" Album by Bob Marley, if you haven't listened to it, go listen to the album, The album is a Masterpiece.
Are these lists based on who listened? Because I've never listened to Frank Ocean so he wouldn't have been in my top 1000. All the other albums in the top 10 I've listened to and can dig it. (Lauren would actually be top 30-50 for my list)
Where are: Hot Fuss- The Killers 22 a million- Bon Iver The Carter III- Lil Wayne Rush of Blood to the Head- Coldplay Toxicity- System Of A Down August & Everything After- Counting Crows Legends Never Die- Juice WRLD DS2 -Future Need to Argue- Cranberries Songs in the key of a minor-Alicia Keys American Idiot- Greenday Also anything by Queen, The Who, Foo Fighters, Black Sabbith, Ray Charles, J Cole, The Police or Johnny Cash?
this list is Hypocrisy, one thing that stood out to me the most was that there was absolutely no TPAB at all which could be regarded as one of the best hip hop albums ever created but there’s a GKMC which is phenomenally but no where near the levels of TPAB, I understand this isn’t a hip hop tier list all together but it should of been at least top 10
I know everyone’s upset about this segment, but I’m glad it’s sparked so much discussion and debate. It’s great to see people talking about their favorite records and why they matter. It reminds us of music’s cultural, political, and social significance

I love Frank Ocean but dark side of the moon being 28 and blonde is at 5 is insane.

the comments are so angry as if this isn’t just a ranking by a SMALL GROUP of people! it’s just their opinions, it’s okay lmao.
nothing bad is gonna happen to your fave albums. they’re not gonna be deleted from streaming platforms if they’re not on the list. your personal memories attached to them aren’t gonna disappear.
just like nothing good is gonna happen to these albums for being on the list. they’re not gonna suddenly sell 100K copies this week. apple just did this for engagement lmao
there’s nothing paradoxical, sarcastic or ironic about my comment.
i meant what i said. this is simply a ranking by a select few people, that has no impact upon other groups of people’s opinions on these albums, nor does it impact the actual albums themselves. @user-yz1id7wc7q
No College Dropout? No Graduation? Michael Jackson gets snubbed for #1? Yeah this is def a bull list.
Graduation is not a top 100 album lol. There were bigger snubs from this list. Billy Joel, Fiona Apple, Black Sabbath, Joy Division and more
Nile Rogers rockin' that Chanel is magical
You had trouble deciding between GKMC and TPAB for a top 10 spot, but then turned around and excluded TPAB from the Top 100 entirely? How does that make sense? PUT BOTH. Other artists/bands had 2 albums.
I’m sorry but THRILLER should be number 1
Not even the best MJ album. Off the Wall >
@@3HorusThriller had more singles then “Off the wall” tho!…N Less songs…just off mathematically Thriller is the better album based off singles to song ratio🤷🏽♂️!…
@@OnlyMorale I'm glad this is the only time I've ever seen this logic used. That's all I'mma say
Prince got two places on this list. I am so happy 😭
Back to black only album perfectly placed
Too high.
Off The Wall deserves a spot in the top 10
FACTS! 🔥 🔥
Michael Jackson's Thriller being #1 shouldn't even be debated.
It can easily be debated.
@@Supermanfan99how so?
@@for-house-stark It’s a subjective list. Anything can be debated. Most music lists have Revolver or Sgt. Pepper’s by The Beatles or Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys at the top.
@@Supermanfan99 every list is a subjective list
@@for-house-stark Exactly and that’s why everything can be debated. Saying it “shouldn’t even be debated” is silly
no aaliyah. one janet album. no mariah carey.
Aliyah shouldn’t be on there. Janet should have at least two. Madonna should have 2-3 at least. Mariah should have at least one if not two.
@@taintedlife2618I’d put Aaliyah over anti at least
@@taintedlife2618 anti and a lot of modern rnb wouldn't exist without aaliyah and janet. if usher, mary j blige, and d'angelo made it, aaliyah def should be there.
@@YesNo-yl6ws I agree. Rihanna has no place in a top 100 albums.
@@sailwh0remoon I agree she should be there over Usher and D’Angelo but not Mary.
Blonde at 5 is wild. Sure it was big at the time and people still listen to it but I’ve grown cold on it in the last couple of years, perhaps mostly because of Frank’s weird behavior since then. It feels like an album that would take me an hour to explain to anyone the lore of that record to someone who isn’t familiar with Frank.
Thriller IS number 1. People are just anti Michael. Don’t switch up when the biopic drops
Over abbeyroad? Behave
@@mikeshinoda703 yeah over abbey road
@@icydiamonds3747 Jackson didn't even write most of the stuff on there
@@mikeshinoda703but the songs he wrote were the BIGGEST HITS on the album and he was still inducted into the songwriters hall of fame as one of the most successful songwriters of all time
THRILLER... THRILLER! 😩
I think Lemonade was a great album production wise. I’d probably put it in the top 20 but not 10. The College Dropout and TPAB should’ve made the list imo. I think a Red Hot Chili Pepper’s album, Coldplay and Gorillaz should’ve made the list too.
Thriller should have been no. 1. Without question.
FACTS! 🔥 🔥
Frank Ocean in Top 5...???🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yeah! For a generation one of the most prolific and experimental R&B artists. Think it’s a good pick for a modern representation in a all time list
@@keithqueener2397 does the word prolific not mean that they are constantly releasing music? If so then Frank Ocean is about as much the opposite of prolific I can think of
Impactful yes, prolific no.
Mariah Carey >>> Frank Ocean
Woke
Thriller should have been no1
Whoever put yall in charge made a huge mistake. Especially missing sgt pepper, in rainbows, rubber soul, and so many more. But the biggest dumb decision was putting a Taylor album at 18 ABOVE revolver , dark side, and so many much better things. Same with Billie at 30 tbh. When that’s not even her best album.
I fast forwarded to them talking about Thriller. The way they’re talking about the album it really makes no sense why it’s not #1!
FACTS! 🔥 🔥
what about ABBA
These people are full of it. What about Pat Benatar. garbage. so many amazing artists neglected because of poor taste of these people. Where is RIO
There will always be debates on this topic. I am actually really happy to see Lauryn Hill get props but I do not think that the album is the #1 album of all time. It could be within the top 20. Nile Rogers know that that album being put at #1 is cap. You can see it in his response. To me "Thriller" and "Songs in A Minor" are the unquestionables of this top 10.
Relieved to see Nevermind! But no Dirt, Ten, or Superunknown on the list is disappointing.
Surprised dirt isn’t on there.
@@frankalmanzar3492 Yeah! I feel like among the grunge community, and critics as well, Dirt is considered one of the, if not THE best album of that genre. So I’m surprised as well
No Smashing Pumpkins was crazy to me
@@eric_stewart I know! Siamese Dream? Mellon Collie?
Musical ignorance all around. These folks at apple probably don’t know anything of grunge outside Nevermind
The best ever musical album being made is "One Love" Album by Bob Marley, if you haven't listened to it, go listen to the album, The album is a Masterpiece.
How is Sufjan Stevens not on the list?
Good point, indie massively overlooked
Are these lists based on who listened? Because I've never listened to Frank Ocean so he wouldn't have been in my top 1000. All the other albums in the top 10 I've listened to and can dig it. (Lauren would actually be top 30-50 for my list)
best albums: OFF the wall. Thriller, Bad, Dangerous, History
History is not that good
@@georgeandfriendsadventures5073it's actually that good
No Whitney or Phil album in the top 20 is astronomically insane. Period.
One of the stupidest things Apple has done recently.
Fr
It’s just opinions guys chill. It’s get people discussing music which is always great
@@godlikegaming6268IGNORANT OPINIONS
Poor wittle baby doesn’t get the perfect content he desires. Throw a fit why don’t ya lol.
Man child
No James Brown, only the most sampled artist of all time? No The Who, a band that laid foundation for punk, grunge, and metal to some degree?!?!?!
Where are:
Hot Fuss- The Killers
22 a million- Bon Iver
The Carter III- Lil Wayne
Rush of Blood to the Head- Coldplay
Toxicity- System Of A Down
August & Everything After- Counting Crows
Legends Never Die- Juice WRLD
DS2 -Future
Need to Argue- Cranberries
Songs in the key of a minor-Alicia Keys
American Idiot- Greenday
Also anything by Queen, The Who, Foo Fighters, Black Sabbith, Ray Charles, J Cole, The Police or Johnny Cash?
Maybe if it’s 2000 on list but not one that included any 90s or 80s albums because no way is Lil Wayne making that list.
Apple has a bias against 2000s rock but a hard on for 70s boomer stuff
No TPAB on here makes this list egregious. The album was studied in colleges for Christ Sake. Objectively bad list.
hop off your high horse
They chose gkmc over tpab. Some people (like me) think like that
@@yannkyony3742 Both should be on it
What is TPAB?
@@hisandhers4466Both should've been top 20.
Think they put Hill at #1 to get people talking about the list. It worked.
Exactly
No QUEEN night at the opera? Crazy miss.
i’m not even on the beyoncé part and i’m scared for the rest cause all the comments are saying they don’t even know ANYTHING about the album
Thriller hands down then purple rain
Thanks for Back to Black. Another dimension.
overrated
pls don’t ever rank music ever again. just give me my Replay yearly.
Miss L wrote the most monumental piece of work. I still listen to it to this day.
this list is Hypocrisy, one thing that stood out to me the most was that there was absolutely no TPAB at all which could be regarded as one of the best hip hop albums ever created but there’s a GKMC which is phenomenally but no where near the levels of TPAB, I understand this isn’t a hip hop tier list all together but it should of been at least top 10
Came here for the comments. Glad to see we are all on the same page.
