Is this just a trend that I see on this site of hip hop from past decades being underrated, while hip hop from the last decade is a little overrated, or is that just me?
So many of the rankings on this site and many other sites will look ridiculous (to more than just the minority), in 5, 10, 20-50 years time. _________________ Best Classical Best Films Best Paintings

Past a certain point I ignore rankings like this because all one person has to do is edit their chart and rank an album higher or lower by a few positions and the album can make huge jumps in ranking. Ranking fluctuations happen a lot with my lower overall ranked albums. _________________ ...and for dessert!
Yeah, you can't really look at albums with no rank score, 1 person could change it from 50,000th to... 2,500? Assuming they put it at the top of a year's chart and decade's chart and greatest ever chart. Let's not experiment though, lol.
On topic, but within the top 200 so there's no excuse.... How can the Marshall Mathers LP be ranked higher than It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back? I don't want to hear some idiot pretending to literally suck d*&^s for 3 minutes, or (ironically) rap homophobically, violently, and psychotically. Stabbing gay people in the head for no reason? Keeping someone in a closet for the purpose of raping them? He pretends to kill his wife, doing both of their voices and is so offensive that even on the explicit version, he was censored twice throughout the record, once for killing a toddler in Kim and another for supporting the Colombine killers. F*&^ eminem, there's nothing more embarrassing than being caught listening to MMLP. Nation of Millions on the other hand is the 2nd best rap album of all time behind Illmatic and it's easily more important and meaningful. Also the production was max original.
Less offensively, I don't get how Paul's Boutique is better than License To Ill but that seems to be the universal consensus so w/e. I accept the fact that I just don't get this one.
Fleetwood Mac's 1975 self titled (NOT their s/t debut) might not be as good as Rumours but I also enjoy it more. At best though, it's slightly behind Rumours, it sure as hell isn't as far behind as this site would suggest.
EDIT: I have heard Rumours way more than 75 s/t though, prob has something to do with it.
