    Pretty disappointing...10 songs and only 40 minutes of music...Nothing really stands out too much...Worst album since 808s...

    Best songs IMO are...

    Black Skinhead
    Bound 2 Ft. Charlie Wilson

    Kanye sucks! He has zero talent. Nothing more then a self rigtheous wanna be. I did some business with his uncle through my business. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

    If you like Kanye you may not like most of what i listen to. Vinnie's new album is pretty good but this is one of my favorite songs over the past couple years

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSmfNtiACiY

    check this one out too and let me know what you think papa

    Zero talent?  Ridiculous statement.  College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation, and MBDTF were all great albums.

    I don't understand how you guys would support Kanye West, even if he was a talented music artist.

    The guy is so full of himself. He constantly talks about how he is better than actual musical icons and legends.

    I'd feel like a real loser/sucker for supporting someone like that. Downright embarrassing is what it is.

    Papa, I can't believe you listen to Vinnie Paz and the Rugged Man, and then make a ridiculous statement like Kanye Westnis extremely talented. The guy is a joke, just like 99% of modern hip hop. My whole thing is if you're hip hop and on the radio, then you're just another garbage mainstream rapper. He only way you'll listen to some good hip hop is underground with guys like Vinnie Paz and the Rugged Man.

    Kanye is very talented but was a king of beats and production way before he started on the mic.

    To this day, Kanye can find the most ridiculous beats for tracks, I don't think he's ever lost that part of his game.

    However Kanye has gotten very lazy with his rhymes and wordplay. College Dropout was such a success because the guy was HUNGRY to show people he had mic skills.

    This all came to a head on MBDTF, which was a horrible album in my opinion. I have to imagine Yeezus is at least a step up from that album.

    A joke?  Come on, dude.  I like music that is enjoyable to listen to.  Kanye West has put out his fair share of great music to listen to.  I don't know what to tell you if you don't think College Dropout and Late Registration are good music, but I very much enjoyed them when they came out and still listen to them today.  Yeah, he's a joke in the media.  He's a condescending douchebag, but he's still put out great music in the past that I still bump today.  I can list at least 20 songs of his that I still listen to today.

    MBDTF is 10000x better than Yeezus.  Yeezus is pure trash.  Bound is the only solid song on the album and sounds more like a mixtape track than something you'd put on an album.

    I just listened to a few of the tracks on Youtube. Not impressed but sometimes you need to give it a few times before you make a full accessment.

    Agree with you on Bound 2; takes me back to his College Dropout days. It's actually very symbolic of why people took to Kanye in the first place.

    I know he prides himself on being a "creative genius" but sometimes artist tend to get to "cute" with it. Stick with what works.

    I've given it 3 listens and that is more than enough.  It's just not enjoyable in my opinion.

    kayne Sucks , just Like most of Rap today

    Most of it is just keeping a sterotype going

    if u want good Rap go back and Listen to

    Big daddy Kane

    KRS One

    EPMD

    Eric B and Rakim

    Those Rappers actually had something meaniful to say ... NOT just selling SEX and lying about the Street life or how great they are

     

    also Wham      that Adam Ridgley could have been the next James Brown

    You do this in every rap thread.  We get it.  You're a grandpa.  You can't conform to anything new now-a-days.  Doubt you've given any new rap a chance.  There's plenty of great up and coming rappers.  Stop doing this in every rap thread you see.  It's annoying and repetitive.
