172446, I hate it. Posted by Brew, Tue Feb-16-16 03:39 PM
I agree that it's cohesive, but it hurts my ears to listen to that album. Lyrically it's atrociously misogynistic and boring from a technical standpoint (pretty standard for him but this album went above and beyond his typical shit) and the production is everything I hate about modern hip-hop.
But as I've often said in regards to Kanye and other artists of his ilk, I'd rather have him continuously push the envelope and create something I may not necessarily like than to keep dropping the same album over and over again, so from an artistic standpoint (production-wise, I never really judge his albums on his lyrics) I can at least appreciate what he was going for even if the sound isn't my cup of tea.
