Anything u post against the kanye circlejerk gets u flamed here
Yet we here without an album as predicted
He released it unfinished, and even added new songs, and had to correct the mix, lol
Still much more complete than this man this album isn’t even close to that same level as tlop and laughable if you say it’s anything close to 808s
Seems like he made a bunch of music he likes to listen to, and then realized a week ago that it’s his album and that he has to actually be on the songs too lol
Then just executive produce an album instead of this bs
The album he played was the same one he released then he made tweaks after
It took me 8 months to properly enjoy the album bc of that bs. First time I heard it before all the updates it didn't grab me. I left it alone for a long time. 8 months later I revisited the album in its final form and it blew me away. Ended up being one of my fav albums ever
It's a good thing
Bound 1 was a f***ing mess & I assume all of Yeezus pre Rick was similar, cautiously optimistic
It’s pathetic that he can’t finish an album and then promote and release it when it’s ready
seems like he lost any artistic integrity
he's surrounded by yes men smh
People been saying this since Dark Fantasy lmao. And the bucket has gotten kicked down far enough until he went MAGA abs actually dropped a less than stellar album
why is everyone saying yeezus pre rubin sucked now lmao
Disagree but Bound 1 was really special, would prefer that to 2 tbh
If Rick saves this s*** a la stripping Yeezus down
Lol that had great Kanye verses tho
If Kanye doesn't work on this for at least another month, it's an L. Assuming this is what we're getting. If he actually takes the time and just puts in some effort, it could be one of his best projects to date.
The energy on this feels right, and a lot of the concepts are promising. It's pretty clear that it isn't even close to finished, though. Drums are straight up missing from several tracks, Kanye is barely rapping, some of the singing is truly terrible, and it just feels like it has ... no teeth? Like, it doesn't need to be Yeezus, but every track just ... ends without a climax. There's this build-up of tension, and then it fades. S*** obviously isn't finished.
I'm convinced that Kanye is so spoiled by labels at this point that even a listening party means nothing to him. Apparently the Vegas party had totally different songs than this, which leads me to believe that he still has no idea what the final cut is going to look like.
SO: we have an album that is named for his mom, but she's barely discussed on it. We have a rap album with almost no bars. We have a trap album that refuses to go crazy despite seeming as though it desperately wants to.
There's the skeleton for something great here, but it needs substance, and that's going to take more than a day or two.
agree with your 2nd paragraph in particular
like i remember the Pop Smoke track, the Durk track, the travis track, and that one from the TV advert all playing- and i was just waiting for a Kanye verse or 'something'..... and they just ended
was like you was on the edge of the seat at the cinema waiting for something to happen and there was a power cut
It took me 8 months to properly enjoy the album bc of that bs. First time I heard it before all the updates it didn't grab me. I left it alone for a long time. 8 months later I revisited the album in its final form and it blew me away. Ended up being one of my fav albums ever
Do you think mixing could really save this tho? I wanna say with finished verses and good mixing it could atleast make this decent because right now the production and feats are pretty good I’d say
this album tackles secret society politics and other s*** the masses won't comprehend
the 'unfinished verses' weren't in a familiar english dialect, but they make perfect sense to any higher up
going to jail specifically has deep and gloomy symbolism. Kim's body language says it all
Still much more complete than this man this album isn’t even close to that same level as tlop and laughable if you say it’s anything close to 808s
Still prefer to listen to this 2.000 times than another regular trap "finished" song by the newest rapper that no one will remember in 4 months.
If Rick saves this s*** a la stripping Yeezus down
Rick gon strip it down to 2 tracks
