Longtime record producer Nile Rodgers, part of Apple's panel, called it "monumental".Grunge became mainstream when Nirvana released its second studio album.
"The vulnerability of this record, coupled with the intensity of the way it sounded and the cultural moment that it bled into, touched something," Grammy winner Maggie Rogers told Apple.Made amid the tumult of a break-up with her future husband, Amy Winehouse's second and final album was full of heartbreak and grief.
"This is one of the most beautifully curated, created, structured, and track-listed albums of the modern era," Apple Music's Zane Lowe said.Stevie Wonder was among the most popular musicians in the world when this album came out in 1976, and its inclusion here re-affirms him as a titan of music. Pitchfork named the album the best of the 2010s in 2020, and on Rolling Stones' most recent update to the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list, Ocean landed at 79.Half of the track list of this album eventually became Top 10 singles, catapulting Prince to superstar status.
