    FasterLouder ranks it #1 as well and wrote a special article about why it should be #1

    for the combination of 3 things: the musical impressiveness, lyricism and subject matter.

    That's interesting. You think so highly of critics when it comes to TPAB but the fact that Stankonia and The Love Below are also highly rated by critics doesn't change the fact that you think they are garbage. Lol.

    I'm done here.

    Agree with fastlouder, it was musically beautiful and flawless

    This record deserves every bit of praise, and even more.

    I honestly can't tell if WPG is closeminded or a bad loser.
