Although the album was released back in 2008, Rolling Stone Magazine believe’s Kanye West’s 808 & Heartbreak album is one of the most groundbreaking albums of all time. This is a pretty awesome accolade for Mr. West considering it’s coming from one of the most credible sources in music, period. Other groundbreaking Hip-Hop albums that made the list were Run-D.M.C.’s self titled album Run-D.M.C., Public Enemy’s It Takes A Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back and Dr. Dre’s The Chronic.
