Only thing I wish was different is his vocal delivery on New Slaves. He should have done a take more like he did on SNL. The way the anger builds through that last verse makes the album delivery so lackluster. Other than that, the album's perfect.

Did anybody bring up the fact that the soul loop and the electro flip places in On Sight and Bound 2? It's interesting since On Sight is him embracing that bravado he's been hiding in for years to the point of being obnoxious while Bound 2 is an attempt at the polar opposite...until that electro chorus pops in. Second verse he's backsliding into his old ways. An even longer electro chorus. Third verse is a simple pop reference confirming the fantasy's over before the song cuts out. Makes the whole album have a much more bleak tone. Embrace it. Don't embrace it. Fight it. Don't fight it. There's no control when it comes to that darker aspect of his personality.

I AM BRAWW posted:hahahah, this might not really have anything to do with the thread, but it has to do with kanye Wearing a hoodie. Attacking a white guy who's provoking him... This is a subtle piece of performance art in honor of Travon. Kanye GOAT

Sad face? How do you expect him to perform without his 60-ft circular LED screen?!

SgtScruffy posted:This is either wanky overanalysis, or proof that Kanye is an absolute genius, and either way I love you for it. Remember how everybody said that I Am A God was more a self-doubt thing and it was being said like Kayne looking into the mirror trying to hype himself up...and in a later interview, he just said "hey, people can call themselves all sorts of things. why can't I call myself a god? that's what I felt like at the time" Some times, you just have to take things as presented.

Lord Krangdar posted:That's not really a contradiction, though. Through his music he can express stuff about himself without fully realizing it. If Kanye is such a smart, calculating, guy...why wouldn't you take what he said about I Am A God as him taking the trend of 'people saying they feel like something they aren't' to it's most absurd conclusion instead of HorseRenoir posted:I Am A God: No idea why people think this song is about Ye being an arrogant douche. The oppressive beat and terrified screaming are not the products of someone satisfied with themselves. The production takes the song from Kanye arrogantly proclaiming "I am a god!" to Kanye desperate in the mirror, telling himself "I am a god..."

mistermojo posted:Kanye please stop http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/02/arts/music/kanye-west-life-pablo-tidal-streams.html This quote was in the Tidal newsletter. quote:“Woe to you the day it is said that you are finished! To finish a work? To finish a picture? What nonsense! To finish it means to be through with it, to kill it, to rid it of its soul – to give it its final blow; the most unfortunate one for the painter as well as for the picture.” – Pablo Picasso http://read.tidal.com/article/kanye...7ad3e-196561645 So I look forward to Kanye working on this album forever.

I've messing around with the tracklist and found this flowed pretty good. Besides missing something between Freestyle 4 and Low Lights. Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 2 Feedback Highlights No More Parties In LA Freestyle 4 Low Lights FML Ultralight Beam Real Friends Waves Frank's Track Only One Also loving this image that was up on Tidal.

abraham linksys posted:e: okay i'm poking at this album in spotify and this is a real fuckin kobayashi maru of album sequencing. i think i'd have to bust out audacity and chop some poo poo up to make any of this work better than it did originally. i can see why he gave up and just went with the bonus track structure, even if it relegated fade and no more parties to bonus status It really is. Some of the best tracks (All Day, Facts, 30 Hours) don't really fit the theme. This tracklist almost works if you cut the first 14 seconds off of No More Parties. Father Stretch My Hands Pt 1 - Pt. 2 - Feedback - Highlights - No More Parties In LA - Freestyle 4 - Saint Pablo - FML - Ultralight Beam - Real Friends - Waves - Frank's Track - Only One

What's the chances they find Kanye dead in an elevator sometime soon?
