His music sucks but everything else about him is 10x worse.

He used to be good. Now he is not a musician any more I don’t think.

I am copying this from the rap thread. Ok bye

Yeah I gently caress with some pointless lists

College dropouts fave for me is last call. The song is good, Jay getting annoyed at kanye is good, and the whole story at the end is fun and charmingly stupid. I don’t ever revisit this album in full because of the skits and frankly the only songs on it that I really love are last call and slow jamz.

Late registration used to be my favorite of his albums, it’s too drat long and again the skits are waaayyyy too much. Even though these ones are actually funny. Anyway we major is the best thing he’s ever done by a lot, it has that perfect nas verse. Jon brion on the keys right now. This song is just so good to sing along to. It makes me happy. I gently caress heavily with this album. Even the stupid songs like heard em say. I could probably say something nice about every single song on this album.

Graduation is not the brick people act like it is. Flashing lights is definitely the best song on there but I Wonder is super good too. I know people hate drunk and hot girls but I like it. Big brother is good too IMO.

808s is influential but I don’t really like listening to it. Welcome to Heartbreak and Paranoid are both good I guess.

I think of the Good Fridays drops (not including the ones on the album) power remix and lord lord lord are the best. I know the sample flip on the power remix is the most obvious thing possible but it’s so well executed IMO. Raekwon’s verses on all the songs around this time period are so loving good. Wish they would have done more together.

My beautiful dtf doesn’t have a bad song on it. I don’t know what there is left to say about this album at this point, but. Devil in a new dress is my favorite beat on any kanye album, and both of his verses are great. I think I’ve blathered about this ITT already but Ross’s verse on this song is the best of his career by a mile, the beat switch is loving sublime. When the vocals come back in. gently caress.

Watch the throne is so much better than people give it credit for in this day and age. Leaving 4:44 aside Jay has been on a crazy downhill slope since this album. Guess if I had to pick a fave from this album it would probably be thats my bitch or primetime

Yeezus is actually prob my favorite kanye album these days. On sight is my favorite

Pablo is the last kanye album I listened to. I honestly don’t remember a drop of it. I was drunk. Sorry

Yeezus got me into hip hop as a dipshit teenage metalhead, and the fact that his first 7 or so albums span across a wide span of genres of music speaks to his composing ability.

My top 3 list goes 808s, Yeezus, MDBTF, though that's about my taste and not objective quality. MDBTF deserves praise for making a Rick Ross feature the highlight of a song, which by all accounts should be impossible.

After listening to the albums I listed, the numbering still stands, but 808s is heads and shoulders above the others. The compositions in that album are incredible. Easily his magnum opus.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

the thing is that his fashion line is groundbreaking, and even the runway show is great and unique and far more creative than anything that the major houses are doing except maybe balenciaga edit: or rick owens?

his clothes are derivative as gently caress. he's not making anything that wouldn't eventually exist if he wasn't making clothes. when he started it was all alexander wang knockoffs, then he was doing what virgil was doing, now he's in this weird middle ground of balenciaga and fear of god, with a little rick owens for flavor. it's nothing.

he's a bad person too obviously but like, my point is you can't even turn to his clothing for an example of something even mildly redeemable that he's responsible for these days

calling fashion "derivative" is silly because of course it all comes from somewhere, but the fact is that even if you dont like yeezy, the clothing itself is distinctive and breaks the mold in a lot of ways. the shoes, especially the molded sneakers are very distinctive and original. and so is the runway show itself

also saying that a creative work would have come into existence even if the artist who made it didn't make it isn't really verifiable in any way and kind of silly if you think about it for more than two seconds

ELTON JOHN

anyway those are matters of taste and of course subjective so i dont really feel the need to go deeper into it, and definitely not a great time to defend his work given the recent uh things
