I just bought Kanye West's new album and it was a big let down. Besides a few hot cuts, the overall album had weak production and a dull vibe.

Kanye West has mad creativity for his albums no song is the same and that is what we need in hip-hop where everything seems to be formula based. |

I'm so hungry for some authenticly created hip hop, I'm bout ready to listen to Kanye West recite his ABC's on the mic
to a psychotic beat..... He has my undivided.
Artists got mad skilz brag about it now that's...cool.
Kanye is a welcomed change from, booty, booty, booty, diamonds, booty, rides, glorify the dope game, booty, loot, kill a nygga, shoot a nygga, she gave me head and booty!, fire power, booty, fantasy braggin, booty but cheeks, brag brag, and oh yeah booty tracks!
I ain't tender, but I'm damned near done.  |

Kanye has always been screaming booty. Nothing new there and if you're trying to avoid that stay away from Drunk And Hot Girls.

Just listened through it again and Kanye knows he got the game on lock.
Champion was his normal uplifting track and fits into the mode of Touch The Sky. I Wonder was a pretty good track. Barry Bonds was Kanye's spazz out track, only thing against it was I felt Wayne ruined the track. Drunk and Hot Girls was different, it was a track you knew Kanye was gonna include and it was a track that seemed like something Luda would have recorded. Flashing Lights is like Kanye Wests Workout Plan in that it really gets stcuk in your f**king head. Everything I am was the second best track on the album and is truly the evolution of Kanye West. The Glory was just kinda there. Homecoming was another track where you can see Kanye getting experimental but he did his thing. Best track on the album was Big Brother hands down. Kanye totally made a track I culd relate to with me having a big brother. Of course thats weird since him and Jay aren't brothers and Kanye doesn't have any brothers but he just gets it even if its from a supplemental type of relationship. Its about how you always look up to these people because they are your older brother and they really don't like being your mentor but they make you earn their respect. I'm too much of a man but I felt like I could have cried to that song if I wanted to.

Thanks for the warning OK let me explain my POV, on this thing. I love Pac and DMX...they certainly bragged and talked about sexin' they are grown sexy men....
I can get past that....b/c that is not their only position...
DMX is sensitive, spiritual, connected, and Pac, Black Panther Cub...loved his sister and mama ....right?
BUT when an artist str8 couchie'n the entire album, and that's their M.O. ALL the friggin time..OMG. Everybody is not going to be like Common or Talib totally understadable ,
I'm screamn' go deeper, Damned we all know they having sex with women coz that got signed......But damnit...they gettn' cut from my team.
I wish T-Pain would go get a gig working at McDonalds, garbage, Polution, empty!

lil wayne also isnt the topic of discussion here. i agree with the topic starter...the cd was disappointing. im a HUGE kanye fan, but graduation doesnt come close to late registration...and it cant even SEE college dropout. there were like 3 or 4 GOOD tracks. and no broke phi broke! WTF!? wheres my frat at 'Ye?psssh wutever talibs got album of the year unless lupe steps up

Before his deal he was 11. Not saying anything against or for him but honestly not everyone needs to make conscious sh*t. If I want to feel ignant then I'll play some Wayne pre Carter when it was straight gutter not just wack.

First you weren't a fan if you weren't into this album. Point blank. It was everything Kanye has been building to since College Dropout. Its like saying you're a big Jimi Hendrix fan but you didn't like Electric Ladyland.
Second those skits got old real fast. I'm glad he cut them out. Finally Talib's new album was horrible. He needs to get back on that Quality steez. Immediately.

@ Skrilla
I commented earlier on just that..
(I REITERATE NOT EVERYBODY IS GOING TO BE CONSCIENSCIOUS)
Already been said, Period.
As an intelligent consumer of Hip Hop  , and a Hip Hop Cheerleader  .....the fact remains the dude needs variety as far as I am concerned. |

The first Cuban Linx came out in 1995 and it is now 2007, Cuban Linx was way ill back then and is still more listenable than 97% of what comes out nowadays.

back to the Kanye album for a quick bite, i actually thought the exact opposite of what WC thinks. i thought the 50 album was trash and was a huge letdown. but i thought the Kanye album was insanely good. im talking about going down as one of the 15 best rap albums in history. but thats ur opinion and i respect it. |
