    Jesus walks gets mad praise by the "I miss the old Kanye" fans while it isn't that exceptional. Kind of the same with the two others

    Jesus Walks has been praised by everyone since its release. It's not like only fans of soulful kanye like it.

    Something can be very good and very overrated. The best work of an artist is often overrated because people use it as reference

    Develop

    The only songs getting a lot of praise are fml, ultra light beam, real friends, nmpila, wolves and fade

    Any of those?

    Hmm have to think about it but it gets a lot of praise for an average album imo. Haven't listened to it the last week but nmp I would call overrated. I love Real Friends. And Wolves (album version) is pretty bad so if it get's praise then yes it's overrated imo
