    I know
    The discussion over WAR is tiring, but how come James’ Ye collabs sound lowkey better than Bad Cameo

    I mean I’d hope so

    the concepts and sounds weren't good to begin with lol people begging for it first reply in the new james album thread is stupid

    Donda LP1 was virtually unlistenable and then we saw how so many songs from that first iteration went from dogshit to incredible in the 2nd LP

    Just saying, it’s pretty clear Kanye wasn’t locking in for the collab and his ideas are barely even present in it. It probably sounds completely different if he seriously explored it

    Like Bully sounds very promising right now but that also isnt a guarantee it’s going to end up being very good

    i don't think ye has it in him anymore to even finish something the way he did donda lp1->lp2 so honestly the half finished demos are the same as the releases atp. donda 2 and vultures 2 releases were in a really bad half assed state and bully released songs are a mess. i mean like we're arguing over the idea of the potential of the songs being good hypothetically rn when james will deliver all on his own no kanye involved.

    Used to f*ck with a lot of music of James's music until i found out that he one of Colloseum's founders actual son kinda lost respect for him ngl specially with the whole vault.fm thing seems quite hypocritical from where i stand

    You think James is a plant or a nepo baby?

    idk man. I didn’t think Ye had it in him for Donda either. The 2018 albums weren’t all bad obviously but I was severely disappointed regardless when comparing it to his past work. Then he levels up extremely hard with Donda.

    The situations regarding Donda 2 and Vultures 2 are obviously even worse now than in 2018 but end of the day we all know what Ye is capable of when he goes quiet and locks in.

    I actually think like 3-4 songs on there are pretty releasable, and that’s without any of the feature vocals that were recorded for those songs

    I do think that the rest of the songs are genuinely awful though
