''My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy'' received rave reviews, and it became both a go-to for the #1 spot of many publications' year-end lists and a recurring name in lists of the best albums of the 2010s and of all time, with individual songs like "All of the Lights", "Runaway", "Power", and "Monster" taking equally high positions in song rankings.

The album won three UsefulNotes/{{Grammy Award}}s for Best Rap Album, as well as Best Rap Song and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration ("All of the Lights").
