    I was looking at this year-end compilation lists of Metacritic.... TPAB has the biggest difference over the #2 and more points than any other #1 since 2010.... also is the highest score album of the year (96). Just take a look:

    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/music-critic-top-ten-lists-best-of-2010
    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/music-critic-top-ten-lists-best-albums-of-2011
    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/top-ten-lists-best-albums-of-2012
    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/critics-pick-top-ten-albums-of-2013
    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/critics-pick-top-10-albums-of-2014
    http://www.metacritic.com/feature/critics-pick-top-10-best-albums-of-2015

    But if you look the AOTY Grammy winner the year after those lists, none of them are the #1, no matter how much success it had, the 2 cases that resemble more TPAB are Channel Orange and MBDTF (wasn't even nominated).

    INDEPENDENTLY OF WHAT YOU THINK OF THE ALBUM
    . Do you think the Grammys will give K-Dot the AOTY award?

    we'll see... we can only hope, but I think tpab had a bigger impact than CO and is a lot more relevant
