Among others, the name of Metallica's, in my opinion, tied for second-best album wit Ride the Lightning and behind Master of Puppets. Most people call it a sell-out because it sold a lot but maybe thats just cuz its fucking GOOD man. I mean, Enter Sandman could be one of the greatest songs ever, def in Metallica's top 5. Moreover, ever listen to Dont Tread on Me, Through the Never, Sad But True, The Unforgiven, Nothing Else Matters, Wherever I May Roam...to name a few. Sure a few of the songs o nthe album are shit. But the vast majority are good. I mean they def didnt TRY to sell out, these peoples just found this shit good and so they bought it. You listen to the Black Album and then yyou tell me it sucks. Dont be a tool. Anydangway, Probably the last good album done by Metallica.
1: Yo, homie!!!After cliff burton died, Metallica was teh suck...hehehe its SAD BUT TRUE!!!
METAL HEALTH!: Dumbass you probably read that on urbandictionary.com. You probably havent heard anything on the black album except Enter Sandman. Try making your own descisions

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
The newest DJ Khaled album was 25 tracks long and it is just a really bad Playlist Album.

1. An album, CD, or other recording by an artist that is considered, or recommended by the artist's fans, to be the best introductory recording for one who is not completely familiar with the artist's work, or for one who has not listened to a complete album, CD, or other recording by an artist.

2. A release from an artist which has the greatest likelihood of being enjoyed and appreciated by one who has not listened to any of the artist's entire recordings, or by one who has only heard a few songs by the artist.

3. A recommendation by an artist's fan or listener that will, in the fan or listener's opinion, be the most appropriate recording to listen to as an introduction to the artist, or that is recommended to be the first recording by the artist that a new listener acquires and listens to.
Yes's "Fragile" from 1971 is a good starter album because you can hear the influence and virtuosity that each of the band members contributed to the songs. It is their classic, and quintessential sound that improves on their past recordings and then permeates their next several releases.
