    That album (part 1 and 2) is on another level, i don’t think people understand how important the JT x Timbaland duo is for music as a whole, chemistry that will forever be untouchable

    Pop is to broad with a lot of its sub genres not sounding much alike

    Jangle Pop
    Psychedelic pop
    Noise pop
    Synth pop
    Electro pop
    Dream pop
    Art pop
    Ambient pop

    Etc etc etc.....


    With that being said I'd say either Art Angels, Halcyon Digest , Night Time My Time, Visions or even Blonde if you consider that like "Ambient Pop"

    20/20 part 2 was weak. Part 1 is great but I have to give a rare Lover cosign and say Art Angels.

    The suburbs not really a pop album at all. Some sparingly used elements but definitely nothing to consider it a pop album as a whole

    Their last two s--- shows of albums yeah I agree but they were primarily art rock (or the cop out broad term indie rock) for they first 3 releases the suburbs included. The line blurred a little more from funeral to the suburbs but definitely not something I'd call an outright pop album

    I don't listen to much pop, but I did listen to and like that JT album. My personal favorite pop album is RINA from Rina Sawayama tho.
