This album isn’t even embarrassing. And I don’t mean that as a compliment. The negro who reviewed it for GQ actually sat with the album and made incisive and insightful points at least. The bulk of you just traffic in brand loyalty and platitudes. I’ve come to realize very few of you have any grasp of, interest in, or regard for art. You talk and think in nakedly capitalist terms: “it had ____streams” or “the metacritic rating is ____ (unless that works against your contrived agenda, at which point critics are all CACs and c00ns)” or “___ and ___ and __ and __ are on the album” or “____ shouted this out on his twitter/instagram”

Just recycling the most base cog-in-a-marketing-and-consumption-American-machine talking points while posturing as artsy and militant counterculture types

Absolutely bizarre and warped. This album of nothingness is def tailor-made for you cats. Yikes.

what’s your personal criticism of the album though

You have a few posts. The only celebs I’ve seen mentioned are CB, Soulja, and some guy who doesn’t even have a check mark. No artist is universally revered by their peers. What make them so important when compared to someone of Ye’s caliber?

When your not getting support/love from your fellow artists and your a SUPER STAR like Kanye its a bad sign.


Almost no other artists are posting or showing love to the album. Not even Kanye’s day 1 GOOD Music homies. No Lebron sharing your shyt on IG Live. None of that

Oh no Lebron isn't pretending to know the lyrics to his songs.

EDIT: And you do realize Bron is endorsed by Nike? He was already sharing stories wearing CLB merch.

But you do! Because you and your ilk are the ones in this thread about a "trash" artist and his "trash" album, trying to convince people of why they shouldn't like something that they clearly like.

You didn’t even read what I said and I never said any of that

Best Kanye album in years.

on my third listen shyt is flames I dont know how anyone can say this is trash. It's not cohesive in the sense that some of the songs sound out of place but overall shyt sounds good.
top 5 songs for me are;
1. hurricane
2. remote control
3. jesus lord
4 off the grid
5. junya
