    Lmfao this sxn is funny

    Innovator =\ great artist, or legendary artist. He’s a staple of this era and genuinely a legend. I just can’t see where he’s changed the genre? Idk

    Mmm Hmm

    i gotta find the interview where he explains it

    This was the interview I was thinking of:

    I don’t have some type of romantic relationship with the public. I’m like, the anti-celebrity, and my music comes from a place of being anti. That was the album where I gave people what they wanted. I don’t think that at that point, with my relationship with the public and with skeptical buyers, that I could’ve done “Black Skinhead” from “Yeezus

    Does that make “Dark Fantasy” a dishonest album in some way?

    It’s always going to be 80 percent, at least, what I want to give, and 20 percent fulfilling a perception. If you walk into an old man’s house, they’re not giving nothing. They’re at 100 percent exactly what they want to do. I would hear stories about Steve Jobs and feel like he was at 100 percent exactly what he wanted to do, but I’m sure even a Steve Jobs has compromised. Even a Rick Owens has compromised. You know, even a Kanye West has compromised. Sometimes you don’t even know when you’re being compromised till after the fact, and that’s what you regret.

    I don’t want to come off dissing “Dark Fantasy.” It’s me never being satisfied and then me coming and admitting and saying the truth. As much as I can air things out for other people, to air things out for myself, to say, “I feel like this could’ve been stronger.”

    kanye could make TPAB, kendrick could not make JIK

    Kanye doesn’t have the rap skills to pull off TPAB

    Whole album feels good on Sunday morning for some light worship tbh. Best gospel album to really take in the lord.

    There's a ton of much better gospel albums imo but I get your point

    Kendrick hasn’t released a brick yet, he’s hit hard since section 80. This next one’s gonna be just as good

    Damn is mediocre and tpab is over rated critic bait

    True Love arguably the best song on there.

    Mike Dean probably's not involved right now, if he is Ye should fire him immediately.

    Needs a second verse from ye

    But that X hook is godly

    The Jeremih Planez feature J Cole did bothers me so much sometimes I just think about it when he is rapping and have shut that s*** off.

    Because Kanye got to this point by being the trend, not hopping on em lol

    he's how many years into the game at this point? He's allowed to be inspired by the current day trends if it'll result in his most authentic music for that specific time

    You don't always have to be the trend every single time
