Aquemini – Outkast vs The Low End Theory – A Tribe Called Quest Nevermind – Nirvana vs Ok Computer – Radiohead
IMHO none are close to being the Top 4 albums of the 1990's, so I'll let others decide. Nevermind has the largest influence. OK Computer is the most musical.
2024: The Floozies, Phyphr, Disco Biscuits, Cimafunk, WSMFP, The Killers, Cory Wong, Dumpstaphunk, Bomba Estereo, Molly & Golden Hwy, Big Freedia, Payton/Nth Power, A.P&TFN

What would your top 4 be? 2 of these would be in mine.

There's just too much good rock in the early decade and lots of great hiphop and rap throughout it for me to make many conclusions. Just off my head, Superunknown and Dirt certainly would be 2 of my Top 4 since I still listen to those regularly. BSSM on occasions as well, but I don't think it's a Top 4 album.

Those are definitely in my top 10. Along with Vs, Liquid Swords, To Bring You My Love, Homogenic, When The Pawn and Illmatic.
I thought of 2 more since I typed this. It would be hard to do.

Some thoughts from the previous round
-Kendrick Lamar is pretty clearly the best MC of all time. I can hear the argument that others are better overall hip hop artists, but let’s normalize this very true take. I don’t understand why hip hop fans at large have such a hard-on for the “classics”. I’ve literally said this exact thing to people IRL and they are almost offended that I would suggest it isn’t Tupac/Biggie.
-Lol Illmatic is on the very short list for best hip hop albums of all time. In fact, I think if you took a poll of all relatively die hard hip hop fans it would be the consensus #1 by the same margin OK Computer is on the inforoo exercises.
-Nevermind is highly influential but like, is it really that good? If you remove the cultural impact it has (which look, I understand matters) is it even a top five grunge album?
-This wasn’t discussed at all but I feel the need to spew this hot fire take: Stankonia is OutKast’s best album
@kingvamp What is my Win-Loss record on these four?

2-2
I think ur wrong about Nevermind not being a top 5 grunge album and I would Stankonia is there 3rd best.

This excise really showed how much damn great music came out in the 90s.
Meanwhile the 00's were awful for pretty much every popular genre imo

I'm with you on all of these though I do think Nevermind is pretty good, even outside of its influence. As far as hiphop goes Illmatic should be in place of either Aquemini or ATCQ
