What is the Apple 100 Best Albums list?
In a news release, Apple said that the list was chosen by a committee that included artists, Apple Music employees, and industry insiders and that it is a "love letter to the records that have shaped the world we live and listen in." The California-based company said that it did not factor in streaming statistics when compiling the list.
Notable albums that have not made an appearance in Apple's list, yet, include "Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and "Bad", The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Harts Club Band" and Frank Sinatra's "In the Wee Small Hours."
Artist Nile Rodgers and Maggie Roger will take part in a roundtable discussion with Zane Lowe, Apple Music’s global creative director, and radio personality Ebro Darden when the top 10 are revealed on May 22. Apple has a website to help fans keep track of the countdown and has produced shoulder content on Apple Music Radio.
