Yeah, some of the songs in the middle are kinda mediocre, but I mean, honestly. It's To Pimp a Butterfly. Do I need to explain why it's here?

I don't know whether to put the 2011 or 2018 version here. Really it's both albums, since what makes Twin Fantasy so special is how the two albums interact with each other in such a meta way. Not that the original wasn't a masterpiece before FtF came out, because it was. But FtF enhanced its impact, enough to bump it up.

Gorillaz's best record by far. "Empire Ants" is supreme.

This is the band's best album even with "Somebody's Calling Me" dragging it down.

Man, what a way to go. I think I first cried to this album like 5 years later, when it finally hit me.

In many ways, Will's best album. The production is a step up from his bandcamp material, and so is the lyricism. I'm putting Twin Fantasy above it for being more unique in the grand scheme of things, but this is a pretty damn perfect Indie Rock record.

"Ain't It Funny" is one of the best rap songs ever, period. This is also one of the best rap records ever, but that song in particular stands out.

The last two songs drag it down, but not enough to drag it out of the top 10.
