Kanye's last album, 2008's 808s and Heartbreak, was heavy on the Auto-Tune and stark synths, but relatively light on grandiose ideas. It was a necessary detour that expanded his emotional palette; a bloodletting after a harsh breakup and the passing of his mother that manifests itself in Twisted Fantasy's harshest lows.
Gah. This is pissing me off. 808s was a substantial narrowing of his emotional pallete.

yeah i thought the same thing -- in fact, kanye's whole existence and popularity and transcendence was PREDICATED on him coming into rap with a wider "emotional palette" than every other rapper

that and great pop instincts, which he also abandoned on 808s

i like this album but let's be real it's about a 7.8

been thinking about my dark twisted fenessey ever since.. j0rd's? dn
i mean, i guess you could argue that 808s added "i hate the shit out of my ex-girlfriend, what a bitch" to his emotional palette, thus widening it... but that would be a poorly worded sentence

it does feel like pfork "had" to give this a 10.0 though...when are we ever going to see another music event as big as this?
