Old Town Road to EGOT

this_is_hard posted:

“Ultra Light Beam” is a plea, a confession, an anointment. It is gospel music that’s hollowed out. There is a choir and an organ, but they sound alone, as if transmitting from an empty heaven. Other voices tangle with faith in a time when God can seem most alive through the destruction of zealots; Kanye prays for Paris. Almighty death and inexplicable persecution cast shadows over this song, lingering in its empty spaces—these forces shape the stray glimmers that manage to break through.

I know you're not trolling, but idk. Besides the argument of being able to raise kids on drugs, I assume he's not around his kids a whole light right now. The last 2 months he's probably been away from home most of the time with the album. They're a power couple lol they have a nanny to raise their kids

Kanye retiring from music (or full length albums himself, at least) or taking a very, very long hiatus after this would not at all surprise me.
