No-one's made the "Michael Jackson is BLACK?!?!" joke yet?

Don't they, by some kind of contract, always have to put "....Nation Of Millions" in there. Not that wild about it myself. No "Straight Outta Compton" either. "Paul's Boutique" seems to be the only hip hop album there.

Is this an exercise in self-parody, or.... ?

A bullshit list, but what can you do?

.pl is Poland, right? I have a feeling they're even farther removed from r&b and hip-hop than white suburban Americans are, so they get a pass.

They don't, however, get a pass for having Thriller so low in the list.
