    That is true but one has to wonder if by them pointedly directing your attention to that if they are just trying to be controversial instead of honest in their assessment.

        Normally I would 100% agree with you. However when you don't have the album that has been in the Billboard Top 200 for the most consecutive weeks, well I question your basis for creating such a list. When it's critically acclaimed, groundbreaking, as well as popular, there aren't really any arguments as to why it wouldn't be in there.

            Co-sign. DSOTM is over 30 years old and still continues to sell boatloads to this day. It's one of the greatest and most influential albums in the history of music.

              I could not believe that list. Where is the debut of the most influential(sp) band and guitarist in the last 25 years??
              I am speaking of the mighty Van Halen.Their debut (Van Halen) was incredibly ground breaking due to Eddie's unique style and sound.
              I can't think of any guitarist that has had that huge of an impact since the late great Jimi Hendrix.
              People are for reviews if it backs their argument, and against them when they don't.

                    Outkast is better than Pac.

                        I would of said the same thing 2 years ago, but Outkast has the better catalogue. They had 4 straight GREAT albums that gave you something you don't really get somewhere else. I by no means think pac is bad, hes in my top 3, I just think Outkast had/has a better career (even if The Love Below/Idlewild weren't my thing).

                          Loved the Love Below lol. IMO, Kast put out 5 straight Great albums. Outkast deserves to be there, Eminem I guess so. Kanye should not.

                          Still though, no Pac? I didn't even think you could mention Bigge without Pac haha. Talk about influence, All Eyes on Me shook the rap world and the aftershocks were felt all over. Man, I remember when that came out, everybody in my neighborhood started boycotting Bad Boy. No lie. We would not hear it. It was an album that turned people against a whole coast! I moved on with my life once I saw the omission.
                          PS: You guys are great.

                            I won't even click the link, but I'll bet Eminem has three albums in the Top 100 and Illmatic isn't even on the list.

                              I'm suprised no one has drawon attention to the inclusion of Hole on that list. The only reason anybody knows who Hole is is because Love married Kurt Cobain. If not for that connection no one would know or care about that putrid band.

                                That wasn't my point at all. My point was if they were only gonna put one album to rep P-Funk, this wasn't it. Mothership Connection defined their sound, attitude, and gave them their first hit. And it was a true album because most of the songs fit together, while One Nation was merely a collection of songs.
