Nylon's best albums of the decade.

The 2010s were chock-full of albums that became the soundtracks of our lives, all the while changing the shape of the music industry as we know it.

As far as international celebrity goes, Rihanna's star rose to unbelievable heights over the course of the 2010s. Aside from launching a set of inclusive, industry-disrupting brands — Fenty Beauty cosmetics, Savage X Fenty lingerie, luxury label Fenty in partnership with LVMH — and dominating red carpets with her fearless fashion sense, she dropped Anti in early 2016, which has been in heavy rotation ever since.

Only Lana Del Rey can take something as mundane as drinking and turn it into poetic lyrics — e.g."My pussy tastes like Pepsi cola" and"Drinkin' cherry schnapps in the velvet night" — that you want to repeat to yourself over and over again. Her 2012 album, Born to Die, is full of such visceral assertions, words that transport you to another sonic landscape that only Lana is part of, with songs like"Blue Jeans,""Video Games," and"Summertime Sadness.

Carly Rae Jepsen's 2015 album E*mo*tion is, simply put, the ultimate pop album. At the time of its release, E*mo*tion underperformed on the charts but received the critical acclaim that 2012's Kiss was denied. I've listened to this album all the way through a staggering amount of times, with each listen convincing me of a new favorite track.
