As I've said, the boomercentric lists they made 20 years ago were life changing for me (esp cause I didn't have internet yet)
they started to look ridiculous when they tried to appeal to the last couple generations tho
Of course. No doubt in that

I still remember flipping open their top 500 albums and being like "wtf is this banana cover and how is it a top ten album of all time"
Only one Luda song?
This might be the funniest reason to be mad at this
you know what? it could have been worse but honestly not having one Drake song in the top 20 is wack as f***. Get beez in the trap out of here and replace it with f***ing Hotline Bling.
LMAO they put a B Side Clipse song on here nah this was an attack
EDIT: This ain’t the real list.. bro delete this s***
I think this is just the rap songs bc Ride Around Shining really is on the list at 70
No they didn't f***ing use AI
I'm not going to defend the actual content of the list, but this is such cynical bullshit, these listicles are huge drivers of engagement for music publications, way more enjoyable for writing staff than the average industry news piece, and trivial to put together with multiple people working at once. Probably the least likely to be written by AI of any article on Rolling Stone right now
Actually facts tbh. Probably didnt use AI outside of minor revisions to verbiage. Still very low effort but in a different way.
Guarantee no effort was made and they just used AI
Rolling Stone hasn't put effort into anything since the late 70s
lester bangs was calling out the rolling stone on bullshit and he died in 82

The first draft of that post was literally going to say "since Bangs left", but i gave them a few more years after that as a courtesy

Only one group of people can redeem these trash lists 👀
I actually didn't fully hate the pitchfork rap list, they were just trolling every 6-7 albums probably for fun. RS lists are actually just poptimism garbage with zero backbone

See you makes these posts like you're teasing a new one but we all know you're retired
