Plus the other albums you listed actually sold millions and were peaks in most of the the artist's careers |
Hozier has sold 540k in the US and I think it's at 1.7 million ww. Although the possibility of an Iggy vs. Hozier stan war excites me, he clearly outsold ha
It's also the only successful album he's going to have so it is the peak of his career
Lyrically, his album is one of the most cohesive of the 2010's, the topics he uses are also quite unique so it was a shoe-in for this challenge
ATRL doesn't care about him that much, but it's still one of the most lyrically coherent albums of the 2010's and therefore had to be included 
I love poor Iggy so let me not make a comparison here...
