Apple Music's list of the best 100 albums of all time is here, but it's NOT that queer.
Interscope Records; Boys Don't Cry; DJM Records
The streaming platform released its full list of the best 100 albums of our lifetimes and it features only 10 LPs from out LGBTQ+ musicians/bands.
A few of our favorite pop stars did make the list. Robyn's iconic 2010s dance album Body Talk opened at number 100, Taylor Swift's 1989 rounded out the top 18, and Janet Jackson's Control sits at a comfy ranking of 42. And Beyoncé made the list twice with her self-titled album at 36 and Lemonade at 10.
But when it comes to out LGBTQ+ artists, only 10 reigned supreme.
