Official Rap Thread (Reprise)

new Kanye album is wild. I can't really compare it to anything else he's done. One song has a full choir, then the next song is centered around a Slick Rick sample. It's a pretty bipolar album, which I think might be the point. Just constant mood swings for 7 tracks. I guess we're finally seeing Kanye off his Lexapro.

honestly, I don't have any interest in listening to kanye's bars right now.  i'll probably listen to the album eventually, but not right now.

Oh also CZARFACE and DOOM put out a little ep earlier today too, although I haven't listened to it yet and I try not to go into modern DOOM projects with much hope.  Still though, a lot of great shit coming out right now.

I haven't listened to the whole thing yet but Ye seems like an EP more than an album. Just doesn't have the vibe of a full Kanye release. 

It's good from what I heard but I wanted more. Not this generation's Thriller or anything but I think Kanye achieved that with My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. There's an argument for that being the greatest album ever.

It definitely is, currently, my favorite album ever.  Although honestly that may fade if the Trump stuff keeps up -- not that it affects my enjoyment of the old songs (they're still fucking great and I did enjoy his production on Daytona, especially Santeria), I just find myself going to Kanye less recently, when before MBDTF was in rotation at least once a month and 808s and Runaway were in my sleep music rotation.
