ILM's 2010s Tracks & Albums Decade Poll / NOMINATIONS THREAD

I think it’s the weakest decade I’ve been alive for – or at least a decade in which I paid the least attention – which is what makes me interested in this poll! If we were doing this for, say, the 90s, I wouldn’t even participate; the idea of narrowing down thousands of great choices to 50 or so would be absurd

Am I nominating the wrong asap track. He’s definitely not liked on ilm. I only care for his mixtape which is awesome imho. I think peso and palace are the more popular picks… maybe I should change my sandman nom to peso.

Wait Sandman was actually shelved and released as bonus track until 2021 so it’s not eligible I think.

Change my nom for Peso

Not even shelved… apparently it was recorded recently in 2020/2021. Feel like a fool now, it sounds like it came from those sessions.

Sorry about that.
