It won best rap album at the Grammy's earlier this year and would've won AOTY if not for Adele. While '21' may have bigger hits, I feel that every song on MBDTF is of great quality. So, is My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy the album of the decade so far? Discuss.
I don't know. It's good, but I'm not sure about "album of the decade". Of course, if you ask for my biased opinion, I'd say that The 2nd Law is the album of the decade so far...so maybe it's not best to ask me.
critically and culturally, sure
i wouldn't be surprised if the album is remembered as the best album of the decade
my favorite album (since 2010) is Have One On Me though
21 is, even if MBDTF got better reviews. 21 is more universally known, has had more impact (numbers aside),
& resonates with more listeners. Plus, it was received well.
But I mean it's a personal thing in the end, what you think is the album of the decade may not be what I think is the album of the decade. That is, if we're talking solely about quality.
If it were up to overall critical acclaim alone, Channel ORANGE would be in the running for album of the decade too.
