    I do like when he used to change the sound from one album to another, I guess that's why I enjoy Yeezus.

    Yeezus to me sounds like an 8 your old making random noises with pots and pans. I can't bring myself to enjoy a single song on that album.

    Still amazes me how polarising Yeesuz is. I can't stand it tbh but appreciate why some do.

    Anyway, for me it's a coin flip between MBDTF and CD. CD moreso for nostalgia. I can't disagree that MBDTF as an absolute masterpiece but ultimately music is about how it makes you feel or what it makes you remember.

    Used to think MBDTF was his best album but i dunno anymore. I kinda got tired of it? I could say Yeezus maybe, but man, it is too difficult, legendary catalog for sure

    Honestly the biggest problem with ye is that it's just such a nothing album. There's not really any direction to it, there's barely any substance and what little there is mostly fizzles out two songs in. It just feels like 7 random Pablo b-sides. I actually like 5/7 of the songs but with the exception of "Ghost Town" they'd all be considered the weakest songs on any of his other albums. Violent Crimes is also one of the worst songs he's ever made.

    edit: also his delivery just feels so hazy and lazy.
