Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly is easily one of the best albums of all time and is definitely the best rap album (closely followed by Mos Def's Black on Both Sides). Like most conscious hip-hop records, this relies heavily on its lyricism, which in this case is great. It's aided by fantastic production and vocals, and this album has grown on me ever since my first listen. I am eagerly awaiting good kid, m.A.A.d city.

To Pimp A Butterfly
by Kendrick Lamar
Wish You Were Here
by Pink Floyd
It's hard to explain why this work's so well but it simply does,This album makes you feel like you're floating in space with how the synths and chord progressions feel and the lyrics help to add to the psychedelic feel of this album.
