Out of all the albums that I have reviewed, I have never rated an album a 10/10. It takes a special kind of album to get a perfect rating. What gets an album a perfect rating? First and foremost, on the album there are no “filler” songs. All of the songs are bangers and were not put in the album to fill up space. That is the main thing with 10/10 records. Every song on the record is good and none are ever skipped when they come on. The record is one that stands, as they say, “the test of time.” It is a solid go-to, and a must for any record collection.

Now, I have a lot of 10/10 albums from across different genres and generations. These are based on my personal preference, so some of my 10/10 albums may not be the same as your 10/10 albums. This is to offer insight about what records I think are perfect. Did any of your favorites make my list?
