"falls off" then at first I'm still listening to every release at lease once to give them a chance. After a certain number of disappointments though I'll start to check reviews and forums first to see if that artist is "back" or at least if the record is worth checking out. It's only after a couple of those that I truly get to the "don't care" point and won't even click on a thread.

For Kanye, yeah I still care. I'm probably still at the point where I'll check out the album. But he's getting really close to that last category for me.
