People will really say anything to escape the truth.

Yeah I think it’s great.

hands on is one of the craziest kanye songs I’ve ever heard

Really good album but some songs I always think about how I would've liked to hear finished Yandhi

The merch and whole Wyoming ranch was so crazy

Yea i didnt like it at first but this s*** is pretty goated

saw him at sunday service in queens, then went to the album listening party, watched the snl rehearsal in fidi, and i saw the doc in lincoln square... amazing era for me

buns

bottom tier ye project

Album is mid but it's an okay kind of mid.

Songs don't sound fully fleshed out and Ye put way more effort into the Gospel sound in Jesus Is Born(Sunday Service album) than JIK which feels like wasted potential.

However, there's some decent tracks on here like Follow God, God Is, Use This Gospel, etc.

I think the main thing that made people hate on this album was Yandhi getting scrapped in favor of it and certain songs being inferior versions of the Yandhi tracks.

But my own hot take is that Yandhi might have been a worse album if it actually dropped because, while it'll have more bangers like New Body and Chakras on it, it also was supposed to have I Love It, Bye Bye Baby, and Simulation Baptize which were ass and lower lows than Water.

In retrospect, both this album and The Big Day were nowhere as horrible as people online and critics made it seem. And JIK's positive and warm vibes are preferable to the darker gooner vibes of the Vultures albums.

I'd take everything he's done since over this... yes, including cuck, bully, donda 2 and vultures 2, this was an absolute low point for him

God Is > Jesus Walks idc

found kanye’s account

i know multiple people who became atheists after hearing this

Jesus Is Born is also amazing.

Incredible gospel album

I agree.

He should've brought more actual Gospel on the album beyond the intro track.

still wish that dua lipa made it onto the final cut

but yeah leaks really ruined the perception of the album

10000% agreed on this, I honestly loved this album. You got: FOLLOW GOD, ON GOD, HANDS ON, AND EPIC CLIPSE REUNION : FROM THE CONCRETE GREW A ROSE production was super solid & the album as a whole was very uplifting & purifying

With that said , when it first dropped :

Me: I just took my lunch break cannot wait to listen to this

@BAMSKI_backshots : brother you are better off getting that overtime

This coon had one job, release Water without ruining it
And he messed it, absolutely abysmal verse, rigid ass flow
'oh we gotta turn the album in tonight, uhhh I'll just do a bunch of run on sentences starting with Jesus'

Eff this 'Kid's First Day in Church' depth to its subject matter/writing ass album

no way I forgot about that lmaoooo
