I actually haven't listened to it. With all the praise it's getting, I'll likely eat the bullet, though I'm not much of a rap junkie. Is the explicit version leaked yet?

[monosylab1k]

tbh if redzero and IronCoconut hate it, that will truly cement it's status.

conversely, if they both like it, that will also cement it's status. odd how that works both ways for them.

Love Power. Loved it since I first heard it months back, though. This album is a keeper, even if I don't like any other track simply for this. It's good so far, though, only three tracks in.

[Medvedenko]

Shit Mono, you're absolutely right. Ye's lastest is amazing, just like 808 Heartbreak, which is the best hip hop album in the last 5 years.

Haters will hate, and good fridays he's releasing weekly have been amazing with the quality. Kid Cudi, Ye, Pusha T, Big Sean and JayZ regulating as usual.

best rap album in a while

tbh either of the twin douche hipsters not liking it is a shame since all of /mu/ has been jacking off over it since the explicit version came out.

[IronMexican]

It's good, but not something I plan on going out of my way to listening, breh.

And /mu/ has been un-viewable since this has leaked. I can't spend more than 5 minutes there now.

[dirk4mvp]

:lmao double confirmation

rofl so true

cubansucks is like joechalupa jr. in training.

also his post about Time changing his life and the way he looked at it is one of the gayest post in internet history.

/mu/ likes Eliot Smith. I still don't. Said same thing aboot Shoegaze and AnCo, though.


Purposely misspelled his name, cause shitty thing.

I have barely been on /mu/. When new albums are released, /mu/ is flooded with the same topic over and over again.

I have barely been on /mu/. When new albums are released, /mu/ is flooded with the same topic over and over again.

Yeah tell me about it. I got so off-put by all the Kanye garbage that I lost the will to be cool and barely had enough energy to lift my cigarette. And then I spilled organic hummus on my favorite vest, which in some ways is a plus because the stain makes me look even more like a vagrant when I wear it.

Actually, Kanye West is one of the hip hop artists I do like. I haven't heard this album though.

[MI21]

Huge Kanye fan, his first 3 studio albums are some of my very favourites, but I'm just not feeling this one. Not enough Kanye, not enough rapping and I feel like it's coming off obscure for the sake of it.

[MannyIsGod]

Pretty good - I'm a few songs in. :tu

[austN Spur]

silverblack mystiq mono whatever your name is probably doesnt have brothers or family members you grew up in the same house with.

In my eclectic house I've heard everything. my younger brother listens to really heavy music like 36 crazy fists or something like that. my other younger brother is kinda like me when it comes to music. my Oldest brother is huge on pearl jam. my brother dane I remeber he came home from a 10000 mona lisa concert bleeding saying "thats the best concert ever." everyone would jam out to their music in their room at different times and hanging out I've heard all kinds of music that maybe I didnt like myself at Full Blast.

not to mention my dad outside listens to his tejano, nortenos and old rock music.

Its stupid silverblack mystiq to say that kanye sucks when he doesnt speak to you. I have to agree with others that this CD is a really good album. It stuck in my head lately. My Wife doesnt like it but this album doesnt really speak for ladies. her favorite song runaway Pusha T puts women in their place with his verse.

Several awesome beats on this album. thumbs up kanye to the

Uh-oh, z0sa admitting to liking Kanye...




Whatever, enough of that gay shit.

I'm not usually a big fan of mainstream rap albums, but I might listen to a few songs from this album and see what I think. Seems like a few of you enjoy it.

[austN Spur]

soon to be 30 year old kanye fan here. First night I listened to a kanye CD me and a girl were on the roof of my house on bandera road in 2004 smoking blunts and listening to his cd college dropout. we listened to the whole cd on the roof smoking 3 blunts and then after the cd we went inside to Fuck. that was a good night.

and since then i've been a kanye fan and always will be

[ALVAREZ6]

Just saw this quote from the Wiki page for this album:

"Well, first of all, if you look at all of Kanye West's output, he actually did a lot to bring back sampling and make it cool again, even though he's more of a mainstream artist...but his new album is strictly hard beats and rhyme. He's totally done with electro. You're gonna be surprised what you hear. ”
—DJ Premier, Amajanese.blogspot.com


That makes me want to give it a listen. Once I eventually do I'll be back with the verdict.

[oh crap]

pretty nice but i feel like it's getting overhyped so could understand some thinking it's overrated. this is pretty dope but believe it or not still like his third outing, Graduation, better.

[austN Spur]

when i was listening to this friday night i was thinking the same thing. but then again with song like, Everything I am and Good Morning thats hard to top in my opinion.

[Medvedenko]

So far the album reviews are coming through:
5/5 Rolling Stone
9/10 Spin

I'm sure there are more out there and the ones I read seem pretty positive, and quite surprising as Ye's the Kobe of Hip Hop.

[ALVAREZ6]

Cottt damn all of the intros to the songs are fucking annoying as hell...really ruins the ability to play an album through and just relax and listen. I like a couple of the songs though, some are decent.

This album is alright, it's good compared to most mainstream rap albums, but it's not all that.

[ALVAREZ6]

Huge Kanye fan, his first 3 studio albums are some of my very favourites, but I'm just not feeling this one. Not enough Kanye, not enough rapping and I feel like it's coming off obscure for the sake of it.
The bold is what I definitely agree with. It's a lot of stupid ass sounds and annoying shit, also nicki minaj has no place in a real rap song. But this is really why I'm not the biggest Kanye fan; he's not much of a rapper, more of an entertainer.


On this album, I'd say the song I feel the most is "Monster"...but only after sitting through the annoying ass intro and before nicki minaj opens her fat mouth.

Actually, shit this album is garbage. Only 2 songs on it that I'd consider listening to from time to time...like most mainstream rap albums.

[KapitanTutan]

rappers suck.

how the fuck do you consider cursing while spitting 100words/minute a music?

Graduation was badass too. It might be better.

If I was to rank his albums, at the moment it's

1. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
2. Graduation
3. College Dropout
4. 808's & Heartbreak
5. Late Registration

all of them genius.

Whats funny is that even though Late Registration is probably his "worst" one, it's still a classic and I could listen to that bitch any time of day.

[MannyIsGod]

Graduation is still my favorite but this one is pretty good. Finished it this morning on the way in.

As for you idiots who think throwing together a beat is easy and all you have to do is hit a few buttons on a computer then curse over it....

Feel free to show us and make millions while doing it. I can pick up my guitar and play 3 fucking power chords over and over but that doesn't mean making a rock album is easy.

You are really pretty fuckin clueless.

It IS that easy to push a button and curse over a beat.

The making money part is something completely different.

That is a whole other thread. If Kanye was able to make millions for the crap that he does-then he does have talent-but it is not musical talent.
Props to Kanye and any other person making millions in today's music/business world.

Now, a musical genius, that is presumably someone who has musical talent and can sing and/or play instruments proficiently, arrange, write,produce,etc...

If Kanye rates as a musical genius then-the fuckin sun is not hot.

The OP claims that Kanye is a musical genius. Please.

[MannyIsGod]

Kanye is brilliant musically. You're too stupid to see it but that surprises pretty much no one here.

I don't understand why making musical notes on a computer is any different than making them on some other instrument. You think its hard to make a fucking C chord on a guitar? You think its hard to hold down a few valves and blow air through a horn? You think its hard to sing on key?

[MannyIsGod]

You might as well tell people to get of your lawn you cranky old fuck. The only saving grace is that Alzheimer is right around the corner and then maybe you'll forget how to post.

Is playing Piano easy?

According to your dumbass logic, Beethoven and other historical masters of the Piano is not a musical genius because all they did was push buttons, and they didn't sing.

Which is ironic considering this motherfucker probably graduated from the police academy when Beethoven was alive.

Thanks. That is exactly why you should shut your fuckin hole. You don't understand. So shut the fuck up until you do understand.

I will enlighten you here;

A computer has no musical notes. A computer has programs that someone else recorded...namely..other musicians...true musicians. These sounds were played on real musical instruments and put on a computer program for idiot poseurs like Kanye to be able to push a button and talk and curse over pre-programmed beats.

And then morons like you can listen to this garbage and extoll the virtues of a musical genius like Kanye...:lmao:lmao


Kanye could have learned to play an instrument but instead he learned to curse over a beat that someone else played and recorded...and he got rich because of saps like you...

So just shut the fuck up and discuss topics that you know something about. Please. For everyone's sake.

Beethoven played the actual piano and was a fuckin genius. He played the piano ---not the fuckin computer. Get it? He didn't go to a program or a recording of a piece of music that someone else played-and then put some trash over the top of it and claim to be a musician.

He learned and played the actual instrument. Did Kanye.???

Well how about I discuss this with you, because I actually have taken the time to learn to play several musical instruments over my years, including Piano, Saxophone, Trumpet, Percussion, Clarinet, and Trombone.

As someone with experiences of playing all such instruments over the years, I have also spent time with people who do hip-hop beats and have their own studio. Your allegation of guys like Kanye using "pre-programmed beats" is fucking retarded, because the beats obviously have to somehow be programmed at some point in time, which is what Kanye does. I have tried making my own hip hop beats, and its not as easy as you suggest to put together, and most of mine sounded like shit. According to you, I must be a true musician since I have taken the time to learn how to play various live instruments, and can do so quite well, however this "true musician" struggled at making hip-hop beats. So obviously simply being able to play musical instruments does not mean shit.

Just like for someone putting together an orchestral arrangement, you gotta have that balance and harmony of the various instruments, gotta have the right tempo, and a number of other factors to make sure that its a good blend.

At this point, I think it would be good for you to shut the fuck up and discuss topics that you know something about. Please. For everyones sake.

I'm not a big fan of Kanye, but he does make some ridiculously catchy music. He's damn good at what he does in the same way that 'true' musicians are great at producing other music.

and lol at trashing him for not being a 'real' musician, didn't that argument go out the window back in the 80s or something?

[oh crap]

blame game is my shit!

[redzero]

I caved in and listened to the album. I'll have to listen to it again to form an opinion.

Whoever thinks Kanye was trying too hard to be "different" needs to shut up. If this is "different," what is normal?

And show me where I ever mentioned that I was a musical genius?

The point of this thread was that the OP claims Kanye is a musical genius. I disagree-but hey, to each his own.

FYI, I would not expect you to understand my music because it contains beautiful melodies (remember those?), intelligent lyrics, real instruments, and well crafted songs in general. Regardless, the only thing you would take any time to do is to try and knock them down, besides if you think Kanye is a musical genius-then there would be no point in listening to my music.

Oh, and by the way...do you ever attend the Spurs GTG'S???

How did he get that name?

From producing big artist's music with Roc-a-Fella Records, and constantly causing controversy.

lol Alvarez loves his undergrad status.

is this an attempt to make me feel bad among all forum members because I'm in college???

If so, huge failure. Being 21 and in college...I wouldn't have it any other way

You're right bro. Thats some bad grammar from me in that post. But that you resorted to some lame grammar smack shows how butthurt you are from being trolled to shit in the post. I'm going to let it slide since I know this is a tough time for you.

Just listened to his leaked album.

Beast album, definitely on par with Graduation.

And LOL @ your lame attempts to threaten me. When I lived in town I went to a lot of the GTGs and I talked just as much shit if not more back then. Your funny as shit, but if I'm in town I'll def go to a GTG and I'll even send you a PM so you can come meet me.

Monster would be so fucking good but god damn it JayZ's verse just sucks balls.

so true. that entire song is epic, but once jay-z comes on, I get the same reaction I got at any 2pac song whenever the Outlawz came on - I can't hit the skip button fast enough. Which is a shame because the Nicki Minaj verse is pretty damn good.

Jay-Z should have stayed retired, everything he's done since The Black Album is fucking awful.

[rEgUlaToR!!!!!]

Oh sure, I will post mine right after you post yours.

And show me where I ever mentioned that I was a musical genius?

The point of this thread was that the OP claims Kanye is a musical genius. I disagree-but hey, to each his own.

FYI, I would not expect you to understand my music because it contains beautiful melodies (remember those?), intelligent lyrics, real instruments, and well crafted songs in general. Regardless, the only thing you would take any time to do is to try and knock them down, besides if you think Kanye is a musical genius-then there would be no point in listening to my music.

Oh, and by the way...do you ever attend the Spurs GTG'S???

...Because you seem like such a swell guy-that I would be really researching the GTG beforehand to see if you are attending...because, like I said....I am sure you are a swell guy and I would just love to meet you face to face....

[Xylus]

I haven't heard the entire album yet, but I haven't heard a single song so far that wasn't completely fucking beastly.

[Technique]

This album is definitely is dark. Kanye is no longer singing/rapping about positive shit / club hits.

It seems he's out on a personal vengeance with this album.

Top 5 songs of this album for me are :

Dark fantasy
All of the lights
Monster
Hell of a life
Lost in the world

So appalled is pretty decent, a little too long and gets progressively worse.

[tp2021]

I can't listen to All of the Lights enough.

tbh the lyrical content is the same as always for Kanye. It's either Kanye sucking his own dick about how awesome his production skills are, Kanye sucking his own dick about how he gets no credit for being a good rapper, Kanye sucking his own dick about his taste in fashion, or Kanye sucking his own dick about being self-aware of his douchebag status and how he's man enough to admit it.

I don't listen to much hippity hop music, so I don't get why skits are even on albums. The time wasted on them could be used putting in songs that didn't make the cut.

Actually if you paid attention to the lyrics you'd notice this entire album has no club hits and almost zero singing. Which is understandable considering his past year.

He's a lot more hateful and vengeful.

I got about halfway through that one album. It was pretty awful. It has something like 18 songs, but half of them are skits.

So here's the official tally of songs Kanye sings in. This isn't counting Rihanna or John Legend or the guy from Bon Iver or any number of other singers who sing on this album.

Dark Fantasy - yes
Gorgeous - no
Power - yes
All Of The Lights - yes
Monster - no
So Appalled - no
Devil In A New Dress - no
Runaway - yes
Hell Of A Life - yes
Blame Game - yes
Lost In The World - yes

LMAO. Which follows my next question. What the fuck do you count as singing? Do you think he's singing when he pitches his voice high for 3 seconds?

The point is this album clearly branches off in comparison to his last two albums.

[monosylab1k]

The point is this album clearly branches off in comparison to his last two albums.

Um, the album is a clear progression in sound and concept to everything he's done, sans 808's and Heartbreak. That's the only album of his that "branches off" in any way.

Just do us all a favor and admit you haven't listened to it. That way your opinions won't seem nearly as retarded.

Um, this album isn't a clear progression in sound, but rather a progression in his life to which he's projecting onto the album. Unless you think going from a slow melancholy album to a dark focused album is progression in sound.

His last three albums are basically club hits > melancholy singing > 'dark' themed. It's quite obvious the music he produces reflects his life.

[monosylab1k]

Um, this album isn't a clear progression in sound, but rather a progression in his life to which he's projecting onto the album.

Again, if you actually listened to this album, you'd see that it's a fairly direct progression from Graduation to Late Registration to College Dropout. His sound has grown and matured in each album. And he's always rapped about what's going on in his life. This is no different. Although I'd love for you to find an actual theme to his lyrics that is any different than his other albums. Bravado, self-congratulations, and awareness of his faults. He's done that on every album.


Unless you think going from a slow melancholy album to a dark focused album is progression in sound.

I've already addressed the fact that 808's & Heartbreak is the exception to the rule here. Learn to read. Also, quit calling this album dark, it isn't.


His last three albums are basically club hits > melancholy singing > 'dark' themed. It's quite obvious the music he produces reflects his life.

Find a specific area that makes this album "dark" in any way. I'm starting to think you don't know the meaning of the word.

...and this ``material'' makes him a musical genius?

Could you enlighten me as to how someone sucking his own dick in every album/cd he has done makes him compelling to listen to and/or a musical genius?

You seem like an intelligent person, so I am curious how someone intelligent...err how ANYONE intelligent would want to listen to and/or support someone who only talks about sucking his own dick?

How can people listen to this and determine that this is good work? Good music?

And others (myself included) can listen to this and leave scratching my head wondering WHY anyone would deem this to be good listening.

Since the song "through the wire", Kanye west has only progressed in becoming more of a douche. He's following the career path of Nelly...or probably 90% of all rappers to be honest (not to imply Nelly is a douche, just relating to the music. They'll make some decent music at the beginning which gets them out there and famous, and then they slowly fade out. There aren't too many major rappers that have put out good shit throughout their entire long career.

[oh crap]

Because RAP is not art (for most rappers). RAP is a means to getting paid. That is why as soon as they get paid...all of a sudden they become actors. So if the art was so true why the fuck are they not rappin' anymore and are now actors?

I guess there must be a few who are into rap for arts sake but it sure seems like the most successful ones become something other than rappers once they get paid.

Nelly first big hit, "country grammar", was a pretty good song. Throughout his career, the songs got worse and worse.

I compared it to Kanye because in my opinion is rather similar, with "through the wire". Now, I know Kanye has been way more successful, relax bro, it's not like I thought for many minutes who could be the most accurate comparison, no way I give a shit. It was spur of the moment, you should be able to see the point, unless you're a Kanye homer. Kanye's had a lot of big hits obviously that have been really successful in terms of radio play and mass popularity...but I could give a fuck about what kids like that only listen to mainstream ass radio hits. They aren't good songs, for the most part.



My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is an annoying ass album to listen to.

[monosylab1k]

Nelly first big hit, "country grammar", was a pretty good song.

are you talking about that fucking "shimmy shimmy coco puff" song? :lmao

[ALVAREZ6]

lol oh right, because after one semester of college you suddenly have detailed insight into the entire history of hip hop music too :lmao get the fuck outta here.

Of course not, it's just my opinion/guess because it continually occurs...new rappers come out, put out some decent shit, and they fade right on out of the business a few years later. A few manage to stay around for a while, putting out worse and worse shit. Some actually make some bad ass music the entire time they're active. Of course it all comes back to opinion.


and CROFL at saying Nelly made good music ever.
I'm not saying he's a good artist. I personally think his best song ever happens to be his first big hit, and I also liked a couple songs from his first album. Through time they got pretty bad. Was a very quick comparison to how I feel about Kanye...since my favorite song from each of them happens to be each of their first big hits. This is all I've said about Nelly.

[ALVAREZ6]

oh so now you've transformed into some douchey indie hipster? but you still like the shimmy shimmy coco puff song? :lmao

I'm not saying it contains great content, no fuck. I can actually listen to the song though and enjoy it, and for christ sake it was an example. Go ahead and troll since it's all you're here to do anyway...LOL like Nelly is anywhere near my top 100 artists list.

When I listen to rap or hip/hop, I'm already accepting that I'm listening to shit ass content, with the exception of a few rappers/songs. I'm not saying I don't like rap music because I definitely do, I never go a day without listening to rap but you can't deny the vast majority of the lyrics are atrocious. I won't deny it but I also don't give a shit, because I mostly listen to rap for the beats, while on the go, playing/warming up for sports, partying, etc. So I really don't give a fuck what they're saying when I pick my songs, only shit that sounds good and that I can listen to.

And no I'm not some indie douche, I don't listen to any indie rock actually tbh.

Well, I sort of agree, but sort of disagree.

Any given rapper will rap about the same shit over and over again. From song to song, so much of the lyrical content is exactly the same...it's almost like the majority of the songs have no train of thought and are just a bunch of short random, replaceable blurbs on fuckin bitches, gettin money, sittin on 22s that kind of thing. You'll hear that sort of shit in most rap songs as if it's the standard filler..except sometimes it comprises such a large % of the actual song that they really are saying nothing and most of the song is basically filler.

[ALVAREZ6]

Listening to this album now. Power is very decent, Dark Fantasy and Gorgeous didn't really impress me much.

However, All of the Lights is simply a phenomenal song. The horns sound absolutely incredible a pair of good headphones and really give a fantastic contrast to the heavy beat and vocals.

Why is Nelly being mentioned in this thread?:lol

[oh crap]

on repeat listens, outside of dark fantasy/ so appalled/ devil in a new dress/ blame game, i feel this album under delivers just a bit. still can't hate, overall pretty good shit but i'd probably go 7/10 instead of most of the 8- 10's.

[Venti Quattro]

I am fully convinced that the Chris Rock skit destroyed the best song in the album title of Blame Game.

Also who heard the bonus track? To those who haven't, never mind listening to it...

[The Gemini Method]

I have only listened to up to about All the Lights and I'm rather enjoying this release. It sure warrants the hype as opposed to any other release of recent vintage. It's up there with his better work.

ITT: Police officers (hopefully former) making physical threats to fight people over the internet. :lmao

[The Gemini Method]

Yeah, the Chris Rock portion or Blame Game kinda puts a damper on it. Otherwise, that's one of my faves on the whole album...

yeah the bonus track is awful. it's like an '03 level kanye track that still wouldn't make the album.

it's a shame cuz i love chris rock, but his presence ruins blame game. actually it's the dumb "yeezy taught me" cunt that really ruins it, but chris rock doesn't help either.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This is a much better album than I was expecting, but I still think Big Boi put out the best rap album for 2010.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

The biggest issue I have with this album is the mastering. The songs on here hold up just as well as his older album, but his older albums sounded much better with headphones. The production is a bit muddy this time around and I'm not sure why Kanye did that.

ahh man Chris Rock is HILARIOUS:lol, it's at the very end of that song so its not messing up the flow of the song. I bet Amber Rose was pissed after hearing that track.

Gorgeous, All of the Lights & Devil In a New Dress >>>>>

[Venti Quattro]

my favorite in the album so far is lost in the world. pretty weird choice, I know, given that a lot of people have been going with the likes of all of the lights, runaway, gorgeous and POWER

Once I heard Beyonce singing I know something was up, and it's bad

A pair of Grado SR80i's :toast

Just finished listening to it for the first time. I liked it. Only drawback are the feats. Especially Jay-Z's ish. He ran out of good rhymes about half a decade ago. Someone needs to put him out of his misery. And I'm still not feeling Nicki Minaj. I can't even listen to what she's saying. Her pitch is like that of an annoying chickenhead that I put on auto ignore. Kid Cudi's verse was also pretty damn weak too.

But yeah thumbs up first time thru.

[Cry Havoc]

For some reason, I feel the first two songs might be the weakest on the entire album. 3, 4, and 5 are the best, and the rest of it is pretty solid. If Kanye would stop talking about how awesome he is, he really would be that great of an artist.

:wow Jay spazzed out on the So Appalled track. I do agree he has ran out of good material but he is still head n shoulders above these other rap artists.

I agree with the bold...but not with the rest. How can you enjoy that album even though what you described in bold fills the CD? This album is just pure annoying bullshit.

[Spurminator]

I really wanted to hate this album but I can't stop going back to it. It's like Pet Sounds in hip hop form.

[IronMexican]

After listening to this album a lot more, I am beginning to hate Monster. Nicki's verse sucks ass.

i'm fucking serious man, i don't know if it's the hype, over exposure and everybody giving this 5 stars but after another listen yesterday this album is pretty pedestrian really. i think i wanted to like it more and there are some gems on it, but it's not what people crack it up to be, imo of course.

[silverblk mystix]

Garbage.


Still.
