Apple Music is kicking off a 10-day countdown today, during which it will share the 100 Best Albums of all time.
“The list is an editorial statement, fully independent of any streaming numbers on Apple Music — a love letter to the records that have shaped the world music lovers live and listen in,” Apple Music says.
Rachel Newman, Apple Music’s senior director of content and editorial:
“100 Best brings together all the things that make Apple Music the ultimate service for music lovers — human curation at its peak, an appreciation for the art of storytelling, and unparalleled knowledge of music and an even deeper love for it. We have been working on this for a very long time, and it’s something we are all incredibly proud of and excited to share with the world”
The list of the 100 Best Albums was curated by a select group of artists, including Maren Morris, Pharrell Williams, J Balvin, Charli XCX, Mark Hoppus, Honey Dijon, and Nia Archives, as well as “songwriters, producers, and industry professionals.”
