Decent album but the only reason why it's considered the greatest album let alone greatest hip hop album album is because she's a woman

no one considers it the greatest album or the greatest album by a woman.
Joni Mitchell's only female competitot is Joni Mitchell.
After her there's Kate Bush, Missy Elliot, The Shangri-Las, Madonna, Julie London, Sade, PJ Harvey, Alanis Morissette, Lana del Rey, Như Quỳnh, The Carpenters, if the Carpenters female/male qualifies then maybe Fleetwood Mac?
Aretha Franklin had a lot of great songs, though I don't know her on an album basis.
Eryka Badu's Baduism isn't perfect but it's as good as Hill's album.
I think Hill -might- make the Top 20 or 30, but not the Top 10.
and yeah, you're right about her ranking being influenced by "other" factors.
Just the way Chantal Akerman's movie, "Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles" suddenly shot to the top of "the greatest film ever made" lists in the middle of the woke era. lol

To be fair, it was the best of the Fugee solo offerings

Wow, what a 2020-list.
Racially...
1. Black
2. Black
3. White
4. Black
5. Black
6. Black
7. Black
8. Jewish
9. White
10. Black
I guess white people are really bad at music, despite seemingly having so much success.
I just don't get it.

I mean, Black people invented blues, soul, RnB, rock, jazz, hip hop, funk... White people kinda suck at music lol.

You can't point the first one to do a genre. But the first rock 'n roll bands were all white: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, The Mothers Of Invention, Pink Floyd, The Velvet Underground...

No, I named bands who were influenced mostly by black musicians, but not by other rock 'n roll bands. They were mostly jazz, soul and blues bands, rock 'n roll was created by their influence. So you could argue it was made thanks to black people, but the first to rock were whites.

Chuck Berry played blues. Until the late 60s when rock was already created by white people.

He played fast electric guitar driven, riff based music. That's rock n roll. He literally has a song named Rock n Roll Music.

There are two facts to explain why they did what they did:
1) this was during an election year, and
2) it is run by rich White guys from California
Nothing done by Apple is genuine. Apple is not a serious music curator. RYM has more credibility.

>black people invented complete garbage only taken seriously by subhumans
A single Bruckner symphony or Mahler symphony beats all "music" in these genres. Whites and Jews are the only people who know how to make music.
Even then, all of these were aided by whites and are only successful due to white people. And I still hate the whites who made these successful because I hate soulless radio slop!

To call Rock a black genre is like calling America indian. It might have started with black people but you're retarded if you think that any rock music people actually like is by blacks

Non whites in general have a weird tendency to take ownership of everything in a catagory because they were involved in some early part of the process of it's creation.

He says while using white instruments, temperament, terminology, language, etc
Jazz isn't exclusively black, it's main concept is white tonality with african rhythm. The harmony and melodic styles are still heavily influenced by whites. You're a retarded racist

Just scrolled through that list, it was clearly meant to provoke and anger rather than actually commentate. No other way to explain how Michael Jackson trumped the Beatles, Beach Boys and Pink Floyd.
Hell, I'd put MGMT's entire discography in there before Thriller.
