    Holy s--- I can't believe this was 10 years ago already. People have been too harsh on this in recent years imo—aside from the dubstep sample I think this has aged super well. No Church, Otis, NIP, Gotta Have It, Illest MFer Alive...lots of great songs on here.

    10 Years later, how do you feel about the album? @YeezusDisciples @JayZSXN (not gonna tag kanye sxn cuz I don't wanna get people's hopes up about being tagged for DONDA lol)

    Re: deluxe version I was talking to @Captain Awesome AKA Papa and @Antman about this but I always felt like WTT was sort of divided into acts by that recurring instrumental. Always viewed the bonus tracks as a sort of “encore” to the album if that makes sense—ie they’re canon to the album from my POV, that recurring instrumental even plays after the silence on Illest MF Alive.

    I also view the “bonus” songs on Pablo that way. Wolves is the last track of the third act of the album, everything after is the “encore” but they’re still canon to the album obvs. If that makes sense, idk this is just how my brain works lol. This stuff gets so jumbled with streaming.

    For that matter same with Percocet & Strippers Joint and Kno the Meaning on DS2 (deleted the mixtape songs tho cuz they sound out of place from having heard Monster/BM/56N so many times)

    Oxymoron by Schoolboy as well. People were so confused what the actual tracklist was because it had so many editions. There was the regular album, the “regular” deluxe edition, the iTunes deluxe edition, and the target deluxe edition. Not to mention “Los Awesome” for whatever reason had a snippet of “His & Her Fiend” at the end which was only on the deluxe edition? Made no sense

    The deluxe version is even better. The Joy one of my favorite tracks from Kanye.

    Classic. 3rd favorite Kanye album and top 5 Jay album for me.

    Went to the WTT tour so probably a bit biased but was the greatest show ever. NIP changed my life forever.

    Made in America and Lift Off the only not classics for me and even they are cool.

    10/10 top 10 album OAT for me. People who hate this but praise some s--- like Designer <<<

    About to smoke hella loud to this. I miss being 21. Losing my V-Card to a thick snowbunny, 11 months prior. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy leading up to this era was honestly The Peak of The Early-Segmented-2010's.

    Why does it feel like I lived a lifetime between 2001 - 2011 but 2011 - 2021 feels like two or three years?

    Anybody else feel the same? @Koolo?

    I remember when power rmx dropped. I was in Austria (shoutout @Chrollo ) and listened 30 times in a row. Then they announced an album....
