1. "it's in semi-regular rotation with all the rest of kanye's albums. " In response to Reply # 0
the songs are good for the most part but it doesn't cohere as an album. some songs and yezzus that would sound perfect on MBDTF sound out of place on yeezus.
all the albums i thought i liked, i realized i was wrong.
even this latest kanye album. no-- especially this kanye album.
i used to think "on sight" had catchy keyboard hooks and that the one bar hook was a catchy precisely because it was the opposite of what you expect a hook to do.
but this post has taught me so much.
i am so glad i had the time to write this post to thank you, while i wait for my pizza to finish cooking.
you are the best poster the lesson has ever seen. i am upping this post because i want to help you continue to take up half of the first page.

6. "lets just anchor a David Banner post. " In response to Reply # 0
in exchange for not having the front page spammed with an annoying looking screenname, we give him a post to rant about how music isn't art, nothing good has been released in the past 35 years, ppl are wasting time by talking about and releasing music, and our favorite albums are only our favorite albums because corporations told us to like them.
every once in a while, he can get a second anchor where he tries to discuss music theory, tries to discuss what makes a genius a genius, and tries to talk about what is missing from today's pop music scene.

>heralded as "one of the greatest albums of all-time" by music >critics all the way back in june of 2013. > >so, how has it aged as of jan 2014? Never.
But I disliked it at first listen….and my feelings about it haven't changed much.
And I also think Kanye's music has been steadily declining since his first album.
And I still think it's really weird he drops his most misogynistic release right when he's in a committed relationship and has a daughter. Then again, when you think about his partner, maybe… well….LOL
17. "6 months after anything it's probably out of the rotation." In response to Reply # 0
never understood how long someone listens to something means it was a success or not. if I had less of a taste for new music, I'd still be listening. but there's several hundred albums a year I have interest in and totally not enough time to get to all of 'em proper, so for me if something stays impressive for 2-3 weeks - hell, 5-10 days - that's the ill shit.
