Writer: Kris AvalonKris Avalon



It's no secret that over the years Rolling Stone has become notorious and divisive in regards to how they rank musicians on many of their infamous "lists."


Last month the magazine updated their ‘500 Greatest Albums of All Time’ list, and have now included such musical gems like Amy Winehouse‘s ‘Back to Black,’ Alanis Morissette's 'Jaged Little Pill,' Christina Aguilera's 'Stripped,' Mary J. Blige’s ‘TheBreakthrough,’ Mariah Carey’s ‘Emancipation fo Mimi,’ Alicia Keys’ ‘Songs in A Minor,’ Missy 'Misdemeanor Elliott's 'Supa Dupa Fly,' Erykah Badu's 'Baduizm,' and Beyonce’s 2022 worldwide smash ‘Renaissance.’


Bey's Lenonade holds the number 32 spot while her other solo albums Beyoncé and Renaissance sit at 81 and 71, respectively.
