Finally, the Grand-Daddy of all critic polls, The Village Voice's 41st Pazz & Jopp Poll:

We did it! We, the music writers and critics of the world, have confirmed for Kanye what he's been telling us all along. He is a god. His album, Yeezus, dominated our 2013 Pazz & Jop critic's poll, taking the top spot for Albums and several in the Singles category (though Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" won the latter). For anyone who's paid attention to the music press over the previous year, the results of the poll aren't quite that shocking.

About that poll: Each year we send ballots out to music writers across the globe, seeking consensus from the minds of the men and women who live and breathe this stuff, about what the best musical works of the previous year were. In this year's Pazz & Jop poll, 457 critics voted, 160 of whom voted for Yeezus. In the Albums category, the critics are also asked to dish out points, weighting the poll. Each voter is given 100 points to spread around in their top ten, with the strict instruction that no one album can receive more than 30 points or less than five. Singles are not awarded points, only votes.
