Morale, Donda, Its Almost Dry and Clipse albums only ones to really write home about this decade. Maybe 1-2 more. Truly the worst era of music ever, all genres. Its a wasteland

Noname is definitely far from mainstream
Noname is definitely far from mainstream
I don't really have a true mainstream RAOTY that year I checked my apple replay
I love seeing Kendrick get his proper respect itt. I was too immature and ignorant at the time to realize that morale was a future classic

2022: FLAWLESS LIKE ME
2023: Ganger
2024: GNX
2025: MUSIC
Idk how mainstream this can feel
I got MUSIC as one of them yes but I really enjoyed how sharp & precise The Elephant Man's Bones felt
Without sounding cliche, for me it restored the feeling nothing else touched that when it came to that genre
The younger people really see Carti as a god so having 2 albums that can be extremely influential in the 20s alone is gonna help his argument

Deffly a weak year mainstream-wise don’t blame you

As a borderline unc/old head or whatever Carti is definitely one of the greats in his own lane even if he isn’t really a rapper rapper
2020 - My Turn
2021 - CMIYGL
2022 - Mr. Morale
2023 - Utopia
2024 - GNX

Cool shout out.
I prefer Paris Texas but Jean is awesome.

Yeah I mean, u can easily see it in all of the younger people than him
Whether they making arguments on who Carti is inspired from or who he sounds like, that's one thing
The fact is the people are copying him, they could copy Future or Young Thug if it was so modern/cool
But they copy Carti for a reason
I gotta commend it
