GQ has put together a list of their top 21 Albums of the 21st Century. At the top sits Kanye West's 2010 classic My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
It's easy to see why GQ thinks so highly of MBDTF. Songs like "Power," "All of the Lights," "So Appalled," "Blame Game," Devil in a New Dress," "Monster" and "Dark Fantasy" clearly makes this album a must listen.

BECAUSE: It could've been any one of the seven albums West released this century, as fascinating a catalog of celebrity, triumph, love, loss, terrible puns, pretty decent puns, that was ever fucking put together by a single artist. MBDTF was just the record where he talked about all those things at once—a portrait of a man seizing the spotlight, drowning in it, and then somehow finding a way to turn that harrowing experience into art. Anybody who wants to be famous or make music for a living—or do both at the same time—should be forced to listen to MBDTF first. The rest of us are free to enjoy it for the bloody, hard-won, titanic achievement that it is.
