A playlist album is an album(usually rap) that is usually 20+ tracks long and is usually filled with lesser quality songs thrown in mixed with quality songs. The goal being you would take the songs you like from the album and put them on a playlist and then never revisit the original album again. The reason for this is in the age of streaming, artist can just inflate their streams and earn more money by just throwing more songs onto an album to farm streams.
This can also include just making a deluxe album that is essentially its own album to make 30+ long tracklists. Do be aware that just because a Playlist Album is 20+ songs does not make it a bad album... it's just an album that seems more geared towards making a playlist from that album for easier consumption
Some examples of Playlist Albums
Pegasus by Trippie Redd
High off Life by Future
My Turn by Lil Baby
The Pink Tape by Lil Uzi Vert
Donda by Kanye West

Get the Playlist Albummug. 1. A heavy metal album released by Spinal Tap in 1984. The original cover art was considered sexist so it was censored into a plain black cover.
2. A self-titled metal album released by Metallica in 1991 and their first mainstream success. See selling out.
3. A rap "music" album released by Jay-Z in 2003. Considered highly inferior to real music.

1. Spinal Tap's Black Album is awesome but I wish they had kept the original cover for "Smell the Glove."
2. Johnny thinks Metallica's best work was the Black Album. Obviously, he's never listened to Ride the Lightning or Master of Puppets.
3. I'm glad that Jay-Z's retiring after releasing the Black Album.

Get the black albummug. The name that many artists and bands have decided to name their album. Some of the artists to have given one of their albums this title are:
Jay-Z
Prince
The Damned
Boyd Rice
Metallica fans also refer to their self entitled album as the Black Album due to its nameless cover and to symbolise the beginning of the end.
Ira Peel hasn't looked at the Music Fan Reaction List. A Metallica fan wouldn't cry because someone insulted their favourite album with such a poor insult.
BTW The Metallica album wasn't called 'The Black Album' so Jay-Z didn't steal it. You're thinking of his beats.
I am using this definition to hurl abuse at everyone else that has posted whether than describe the term. I am just like everyone else on this site. I'm cool for once unlike school!

Get the Black Albummug. After Viktor Tsoi died tragically in a car accident near Riga, the Russian rock band Kino released an album without a title, though it is always cited as Chornyy albom (Russian for The Black Album) since it has a wholly black cover.
- My favourite album from Kino is the one without title.
- Which one is that?
- You know, the Black album.
