what are /mu/'s thoughts on this album?
i really liked it, it had a really big MBDTF vibe to it
i can't really compare it to yeezus since they're completely different, but i really enjoyed it
>>65408720
I'd say it was his 2nd worst album personally after 808s. Would give it a 7/10 though so still pretty good. Just inconsistent really, but some really great tracks
>>65408720
>i really liked it
me too
>it had a really big MBDTF vibe to it
what?
>>65408720
better than Yeezus, worse than MBDTF
>>65408770
sounded a lot like MBDTF to me desu
>>65408720

do u think stuff like run the jewels and mf doom and aesop rock is "real" rap
absolutely loved ultralight beam, mostly because of chance's perfect verse. i've heard that the college dropout is good, but i've never actually heard it. should i?
>>65409043
>absolutely loved ultralight beam, mostly because of chance's perfect verse
Same, though I didn't even realize it was him until I looked it up.
>>65409043
yeah, college dropout is good. i'd give it a listen
His worst album by far, with 808s, MBDTF, and Yeezus being the best
I just listened to that Designer Song Panda. I never realised that that was the song off pt. 2.
>>65408720
Didn't like it. Just MO.
>>65409043
Yes listen to College Dropout.

You can feel that warm summer breeze...
>>65409672
lol if being "Summer" means understanding Kanye is fucking horrible, sign me up dickweed
>>65409672
okay, enjoy recycling your opinions from Pitchfork.
It's actually my favourite Kanye album since Late Registration. It's not good all the way through, but the highlights are really nice
>>65409701
>Kanye
>Fucking horrible
Stop trying to be edgy, retard. You can say you don't like him but calling him fucking horrible sounds like you're some kid after watching the Taylor Swift event.
>>65409923
It's honestly Kanyes second worst after Graduation. Still a 7/10 though. Super high highs, real low lows.
yawn
super boring
his entire personality is so boring
>>65409980
>yawn
>>65409966
lol nope it's objectively bad art. I don't have to describe things to your liking - head on over to Reddit if you have an issue with people saying mean things to you on the internet.
Kanye is either a) a shitty human being playing the character of a shitty human being, or b) a shitty human being with bipolar disorder. He says nothing intelligent. He is not a respectable person.
>separating the artist from the art
shiggy diggy doo wop

LOLOLOL
Recently I've gotten more into Kanye, haven't heard all of his early stuff though. So far I'd rate those that I've heard enough to form an opinion like this:
MBDTF
Graduation
Life of Pablo
808's
Yeezus
Pablo is a great album, especially the first run of songs is amazing. Better than Views over all, even though I'm more of a Drake "fan"
>>65410311
what did he mean by this?
>>65408720
Kanye's worst album by far. It's deserving of nothing above a 2/10. I'm not even a Kanye hater either, I'd honestly consider myself a fan, and I believe MBDTF, The College Dropout, and Late Registration are some of the greatest hip hop albums ever made.
It's a pretty shit album. some great songs throughout but for the most part it's just shit. If this was released by anyone else I don't think it would get half as much praise as it did.
Yeezus is trash. Why do people on this board like it so much?
>>65408955
Run the jewels and doom are hiphop not rap. Both are better than kanye imo
>>65410981
Run The Jewels suck just as much as Kanye my n word.
>>65410981
Rap is a vocal style. Hip Hop is a genre of music. Both of you sound like retards.
>>65410999
Run the jewels is similar to ghost in that it is a all just a performance (I hope). Kanye as a human being is just kinda shitty desu and his music is hit (like a bulls-eye) or miss (like not even same the game).
>>65411079
>Kanye as a human being is just kinda shitty
Can't agree with this, definitely agree his music is hit or miss (with more misses lately) but as a person he really isn't that bad. The media portrays him as far worse than he actually is. Granted he isn't the best guy in the world but he is pretty standard, a lot of people would act the same way when put in his shoes.
>>65411079
yeah Kanye as an actual person such an utter shit, I would probably assult him if he treated me like how he treats most people he thinks are 'below' him.

>>65408720
The trap-influenced tracks were trash, and most of the more unique tracks were ruined by terrible lyrics. 5/10 if I'm being generous. Worse than Yeezus (which I'd give a 7 despite having some similar problems because its production is flawless).
>>65408720
It's better than Grad and 808's, I'll give it that. But with all the hype behind it, it was easily his most disappointing release. I know Yeezus was very polarizing, but at least he didn't tickle our balls the whole time and build it up to an unreachable level. "This will be one of the best albums of all time. Not THE best, but one of the best". Fuck you for making me read all your stupid tweets about TLOP, Ye.
it was all over the place. solid production, solid lyrics, good singing, good features, but half the album is pointless. the other half though, good ass music, but as far as an album is concerned, it sucks. to me it's like 7 good singles and 7 unreleased tracks that should not be on an album.
>>65411158
>solid lyrics
what?
>>65411175
adding to this guy, the production is awful too, either completely unoriginal trap beats or the track is clipping like all hell.
>>65411175
it's alright i don't expect 80% of /mu/ to have a clue about rap
>>65411239
Are you agreeing with me and saying that it doesn't have good lyrics? or agreeing with the other guy and saying I don't have a clue about rap?
It was alright. If the Tracklist in was better it would've been amazing.
>>65411265
i am the guy who said it has solid lyrics, which it does. if you think it has bad lyrics i won't hold it against you because 80% of /mu/ don't know what rap is or supposed to be
>>65411265
>B-BUT THAT ONE LINE IN THAT ONE SONG ABOUT BLEACHING ASSHOLES
shut up dickhead
The album is a 10/10
>>65411295
How does it have solid lyrics? They are all either forgettable lyrics or lyrics that are terrible. I can't think of a single line worthy of being called good on the entire album (Not saying there isn't one just can't think of one)
>>65411364
Actually I take that bit about not knowing a single good line back, Chance had some great lines in his verse, other than that though.
>>65411364
nah bro, they aren't bad lyrics. kanye did his thing. it's lyrically on par with every single album he ever had, no different, just different words, same lyrical style, different beats, differnt flows.
>>65411482
you just don't like the album. i can see why you don't , it isn't cohesive, its all over the place, kanye had what seemed like 8 bar verses on every song so i think that's why it seems forgettable. except no more parties in LA. he let it loose in that song, he had like a 32
>>65411515
i meant to reply to this one here >>65411395
>>65411482
>it's lyrically on par with every single album he ever had
Kanye's never been a great lyricist but on most of his albums theres a few songs that stand out lyrically, like Gorgeous on MBDTF. On TLOP the tracks that stand out lyrically, are the ones that stand out because of how bad the lyrics are. The only other album of his it's close to lyrically is Yeezus.
>>65408720
love it a lot. one of my favorite albums by him
Yeezus
MBDTF
College Dropout
Late Registration
808s
TLOP
Graduation
>>65411515
I actually don't mind the album, theres some songs I love some I hate. You're right about No more parties though, he managed to keep up with Kendrick, that shit was impressive.
>>65411541
well i think kanye is an underrated lyricist. he's a great songwriter with consistently decent bars.
i think gorgeous on fantasy is the same as everything, to me he has no verses that stand out on any song. but the song as a whole is great.
>>65411562
you wanna hear mine lol
Graduation
808s
MBDTF
Late Registration
Yeezus
College Dropout
TLOP
>>65411598
If they're only consistently decent how is that underrated? Most people that listen to his music agree that as a lyricist he can be good at times but for the most part is only decent.
>>65411641
because consistently decent is a good thing...
>>65408720
It had some good tracks but didn't have anything going for it as a whole
Less than the sum of its parts
>>65408853
Yeah, man!!! Rock will never die, motherfucker!
>>65411666
But most people agree with that, meaning that it isn't underrated
>>65411708
true. i guess i mean among black people haha
>>65410053
>a shitty human being
there is no such thing, only ones i misunderstood or that contradict the values i have chosen to adopt or were imprinted into me in thought or behavior
or some shit like that
he's a pretty interesting personality regardless, or even regardless of whether you like his music
>>65410053
Visual of your argument
>>65408720
lol
are we seriously still "discussing" this?
>sick production
>shitty rapping by kanye
>some cool features
scores ranging from 6-8 make sense though adjusted for kanye scores it should be slightly lower
>>65408750
>808s
>Worst
