    If I'm being honest Violent Crimes is a tough contender for the worst song Kanye's ever made. I'm sure it was well intentioned, but it has almost 100% the opposite effect imo.

    Its pretty obvious that it's his "weakest" album, but it doesn't s---. It's not garbage

    serious question: if you took the worst seven songs from each of kanye's seven previous albums, would any of those batches not be better than ye?

    Kanye admits to scrapping and re-doing the original album he had when the rollout began. The one that Charlamagne heard and said was full of 'Real friends' quality music and addressed all the politics and controversy. Entire thing was made very recently.

    Specifically scrapped the entire thing after the TMZ event, said it was covering too many sensitive topics. Goddammit.
    Sad.

    808s was so ahead of its time.

    one of the most influential albums of all time

    I agree with you 100% about music sometimes being about raw energy and emotion for me. That's why I love Playboi Carti's most recent album. If I'm looking to dissect and unpack lyrics I'd be listening to GZA or something.

    But at the same time, I don't think it 100% excuses the sloppy writing coming from someone who's written songs like New Slaves and Gorgeous and All Falls Down. Because Kanye's shown in the past he can write a song with thoughtful lyrics that also comes that feeling of raw emotion and energy. And to me that's what's gonna keep him from reaching past heights again.

    This is a good album, but it could have been as great as Daytona had he taken the time to make the lyrics as tight as Pusha's.

    i didn’t say “em’s worst album,” i said “encore,” which at this point is debatably in the top half of his catalog

    That moment when WPG thinks a Ye album is worse than Ems worst album

    the fact that you have his best album listed as his worst makes your opinion irrelevant

    I feel like there's just not a lot to grab onto here. I'm going really back and forth on this one.

    pablo had a lot of garbage. until last night it was his weakest album. the moments where it worked, though––real friends, no more parties––were very good
