  32. Elliott Smith

    Either/Or with more instruments.

    Such a chill album. Frank is such a talented singer.

  71. Drake

    If you said to name an album that perfectly captures the feeling of early 2010's I would go with this one. This has fast and hype rap songs and more sad and mellow songs like "Marvin's Room" All of the features on this record are amazing and none ruin it or carry Drake. Amazing Album.
