After seeing the situation with Apple's top 100 albums of all time, I knew something had to be done, we need to see what the people (KTT2) REALLY think, which is why I'm glad to announce:
KTT2'S OFFICIAL TOP 50 ALBUMS OF ALL TIME
'Where's the list?' you may ask, well that's up to YOU!
Before the end of the 25th of May PDT, list your own personal top 20 albums of all time in this thread, make sure to rank them with 1 at the top and 20 at the bottom. I'll add up the scores with my own mysterious algorithm, whittle them down to 50, and we'll find out what KTT2 thinks of the entire history of recorded music in this thread next week!
Formatting Recommendation:
1. Artist - Album
2. Other Artist - Other Album, etc
There isn't an artist limit and mixtapes/live albums are allowed, we're lounging in here

What's wrong nigga? I thought you was keeping it gangsta?
my family is starving (taking only crypto)
Op only making a top 50 from this I'd expect at least a top 100 to be compiled
And 20 albums is way too low. I'd want to vote for at the very least 75, if not up to 150

I don’t give a f*** about anyones list but mine*! (Reserved^)
*and my dawgs
^I will not be following the format because its too hard. Now that I’ve secured 1st page real estate I will simply post my own list of the Top 100 albums of all time. Thank you Fries

I'm trying to keep it concise and digestible, I genuinely think most people would be hard-pressed to rank 75 albums in order, let alone 150
20 makes sure that only the core faves are kept in, and it's a small enough figure that you can rank them with confidence
If I get enough results that a legit top 100 can be posted then I'll absolutely do it, but 50's a good insurance number to make sure it doesn't end up being a top 85 or something
That'd my methodology, but I wanna see your 20!

Not making a list unless the requirement is raised to 50. 20 is a non-factor voting wise

Posting 100 as well but only if, at the very least, the minimum is raised to 50... 20 is unserious and opens the voting to trolling, spamming votes
