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?

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.

nobody was saying it was on the level of "revolver,"
"bitches brew" "off the wall" or "sign of the times."

i don't even remember anybody saying it was the best kanye album.

i remember critics liked it a lot,
but it was heralded as a run of the mill great record.
your memories are off.

doesn't even have to be a new album.
what old music moved you more than kanye's latest.

or, be negative.
what didn't you like about the kanye album?

i could write a review that tears that album apart.
i am curious to hear what your flaws bugged you the most.

is that annoying?

you've taught me so much about music,
about life.

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.

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.


then just delete the rest of them.

but if i was a mod i would delete every one of those posts.
folks would call me draconian but i would totally do it.

I guess it aged well enough for Yeezus to go platinum, DB...

Who knew?

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

really felt this album

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.

Not sure how much an album is supposed to age in 6 months. I guess current music fans don't know how to enjoy music.

That's about it though.

Mad?
