Like nobody looked at that and thought "you know what, we reserve the right to make slight adjustments" really?

Exactly, i'm not that Madonna stan that always has to see her on top, but it should definitely be higher. No other female artist has displayed her vulnerability and made it so transparent and raw on an album. All while being a famous chart smashing popstar. The woman scored a massive album with three top 2 hits while singing about her mother dying, divorce, estranged relationship with her dad, etc. 

 

But the bigger slap in the face is seeing Un Verano Sin Ti right above it :rip:

Can someone explain how this ranking is complied? There are some albums (so far) that I definitely think deserves to have a higher ranking.

It feels like a mix of successful albums in sales and/or streaming because some choices are odd.

 

Also if they out LAP at #77 and NFR! #79 then they better have ROL or TIC higher and also  UV or BTD higher…

 

I guess they will have Lemonade and RED (TV) in the top 50.

If Like a Prayer is the only Madonna album in the list it's so wrong because it's not even a Top 3 M album

Ray of Light deserves a place in there and I would be ok with that even if it's her only album on the list

Cute entries so far, but I have a feeling that the high positions will be dominated by streaming giants. I'll be glad to be proven wrong, though.

All certified classics that make plenty of lists. They went with Baduizm instead of Mama's Gun, which would've been my personal pick

Am I crazy or is this kind of hard to find on the App? I can't even see the website, it gives an error. I want to be able to click through the whole list and every album. Kind of annoying. They should also advertise this more.

I appreciate that the site they built has a throwback feel to the old itunes library thing, i kinda remember how used to be. But you are right. So far it's just a link on explore page that takes you to safari and then the website. It should've been a built-in thing inside the app with the write up and the possibility of saving the album to the library. I think more people would've paid attention. I think they've been cautious with these things after the U2 fiasco from a few years ago

That's.. a bit of a high ranking for ANTI especially given some earlier entries. But I'll just look at this as a random list of the 100 greates albums and not a ranking, I think it makes more sense like that.

Is it one album per artist?

Voodoo is kind of the best R&B/Soul album of all time. I'm glad they included it.
