2992957, Because it's the album with "Hard Knock Life" and his biggest seller

It went 5X platinum in the U.S. and sold 10 million worldwide. And "Hard Knock" is arguably his signature song.

It also had some of his other biggest singles (Can I Get a..., Money Ain't a Thing, etc.)

So, for most magazines that do these lists, sales majorly factor in when they're assessing quality after the fact. In their view, if it was bad, then why did so many people buy it?
