I've found RYM extremely handy for finding records from certain genres and/or time periods and/or parts of the world, and I guess it offers some sort of consensus from music nerds (meant lovingly) that can be good for recommendations. But yeah, I certainly don't think they're gospel, because of examples like the one in this thread. I must've heard hundreds of trap full-lengths that I prefer to Taboo or anything Travis Scott has done, and so obviously if someone wants to know what trap records to hear, hit me up.

I've discovered countless albums on RYM using the custom charts so I love the website. however, I do think their algorithm for the rankings could use some improvements. still, I think RYM currently offers the best consensus among album hobbyists online.

Skinny, I'll PM you eventually to discuss trap albums. I'm currently going year by year trying to dig as deep into this decade as I can before creating my 2010's decade chart. I'm wrapping up 2015 at the moment. Maybe after I finish all my yearly charts and create my decade chart I'll pm you for some additional recommendations I may have missed. I'll eventually create a 2000's decade chart and do a deeper year by year assessment for that decade as well, but I think I want to go to the 60's next.

I use RYM constantly, but yeah I was just a bit surprised it's ratings algorithm is being taken like Gospel, a bit like when Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes are also taken as so.
