Interesting picks. Some seriously odd picks, Frank ocean with the 5th best album of all time! Sorry, no way.
Having said that it’s nice to find a chart with a higher proportion of female artists in it than most, my own chart included to be honest.
Decent effort overall

Some absolutely baffling picks. I admire the effort, but there's no consistency to be found here.
