it got lost in the confusion but is that booty featured on the cover really just a random Instagram photo Ye had or is it like a model they got permission from?

Apparently it's a random rear end shot that Kim picked on intagram, the model wasn't even notified until after the cover had come out

Re: the album art. The original was much better than what was eventually released. The new one is way too on the nose. Kanye needs to stop listening to crybabies who need everything spelled out for them.

I'm having a hard time picking out a favorite on this album so far. They're all so good for different reasons. Day one was Ultralight Beam and Waves, but I'm currently stuck on Famous and Facts. Yeezy Season :feelsgood:

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
ULB and FML are my early favorites.

A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.
FML, ULB, Famous are my standouts

Ye's poo poo talking at the start of Famous is top tier Ye poo poo talking.

Some supposed Wolves leak circulating with the cool marching drums from S1 and Sia and Vic. It feels too long but otherwise sounds great.

Can you elaborate on this? I remember the original Pablo cover being very similar, with no booty. Why the change?

maybe the artist put WHICH/ONE as a weird way of saying "which do you prefer the one with the rear end or without?" and kanye just didn't realise. like with the tweet that still has the editing suggestion in

Wolves to me sounds like a song that might've been an 808s b-side or some sort of logical progression into sadness post-808s and I like that sound

It's all good, I actually am Phone Posting as well and had to double check that I didn't do the same.

Anyway I listened a few times and I still say the album version is the best, but adding Vic's verse would be cool. It's just a really great melody.

That's fair, and I agree on both counts. Real Friends and FML are my current 1 and 2 by a lot.

I'm getting kind of scared that since the "final" version isn't out yet that he might screw with a lot of the songs when I think most of them are fine. Really, Wolves is the only thing that needs changed (and making Swizz Beats lyrics not exist on the album.) :ohdear:

The original wolves is better because it ends with Frank Ocean. The drums on that og version are kinda weird and I don't think I like them.

Ultra Light Beam, Highlight and Fade are my favorite tracks so far. But I usually just listen to the album from start to finish everytime I listen to it.

Same. I'm probably on 10 or 11 listens in full so far. It's such a strange mix but I love it.

Also Ye's verse in FML is so emotional he sounds like he's about to break. I love when he pushes his voice like that.

1. Ultralight Beam
2. FML
3. Father Stretch my Hands pt. 1
4. Famous
5. Waves
6. Highights

My favorite songs, ranked, though I also usually just listen all the way through because this album is so good.

They're listed in the official album credits so I assume they're getting paid.

Also Low Lights is a great interlude and I play the full thing every time
