Kanye West - Dark Twisted Fantasy

hahaha j0rd

i would give discovery two stars as well

'discovery' is pretty EXHAUSTING!

i really think this! i'm all partied out after the fourth track tbh.

is it just my (illegally downloaded) mp3 or is the vocal mixing on "gorgeous" horrible

shame cuz kanye actually goes in on that one

vocoder wanking at the end of "Runaway" >> vocoder wanking at the end of "Digital Love"

I'll take "agonized" emo screaming through a vocoder over vocoders trying to sound like guitars any day.

gtfo

that's the most ignorant thing I've ever heard.

also, I would rather an album make me feel exhausted as in 'partied out' than 'ffs, when will this track end?!'. Discovery's mediocre rating doesn't reflect it's cultural significance. I mean if you ask most people, I doubt many of them would rate it two stars.

guys criticizing Kanye is just wrong, especially after the witchhunt he went thru during Swiftgate

it really is galling that Taylor never ONCE came to his defense

especially since they were snogging

she may not have come to his defence, but it's not like she actively capitalised on it either. she mentioned it once, and then refused to talk to the press about it iirc & also wrote a song about it obviously, but I think it was a situation she wanted to deal with in private.

oh no i was just making fun of his rant about her

hes still an innocent iirc

it's not like she actively capitalised on it either - do you live in the uk or something?

balls suck one

u banned

that would be 'yes' then

i didnt say ur quote fukhead

you said enough guvna

is there something britishers missed about the taylor/kanye situation?

guvna deez nuts doughnut pumper

i mean interviews about her ordeal w/ country radio, an snl monologue, a song on her album - yeah she totally didn't milk 'this one time a black man interrupted me when i was speaking' like she was elie wiesel.

is doughnut pumper cockney slang?

^^^ xp lol

i had sex with your wife

also this album is hella boring, luv "power" as a single tho

it's crazy how simultaneously belabored and lazy this album can sound. how is it doing on radio? i have a hard time picturing anything here being unavoidable like 'stronger' or 'gold digger'. then again eminem's been having huge hits with miserable sounding shit all year so who knows.

yeah but Eminem is an emo white dude, nowadays that's what ppl expect/want

'monster' is doing well on radio tho nowhere near gold digger level

I'm actually kind of consistently surprised at how low "Monster" is on the R&B airplay chart (currently #36 after peaking at #30) because it's felt like it's been at "hear it every time I get in the car, often as soon as I start the car" levels of heavy rotation for a while now.

on first listen, this thing is totally his Guero

attempt at getting back into standard mode album after moody breakup detour album only you can't go home again esp if you lack the willingness or ability to do so? could be; would explain why even though i keep thinking use yr illusion that album was at it's most amusing ('get in the ring') or compelling ('estranged') at its most dark twisted moments, mdtf never approaches those highs or lows.

on first listen, this thing is totally his Guero

rehash of his old style with some jams?

this doesn't have a beck comparison. this is how i see blonde on blonde imo. i.e. no fucking quality control, stupid direction to go to, too long and yet at the height of his fame and bummed straight into the canon.

Well, no, this album just feels like listening to fourteen "Rainy Day Women"s at various speeds.

'self portrait' more like [via 'what is this shit?']

You guys make it sound a little like "There's A Riot Going On" for the 21st century.

Love Riot, can't wait to hear this insanity.

More like a There's A Riot Going On for Kanye's asshole, in that for full resonance it requires you to be up it

blonde on blonde is great though

fucking hell the number of people this weekend have told me that kanye west finally made his masterpiece

puke

puke

puek

do you dudes listen to music or do you just skim through it

discussion itt got me to listen to LR for the first time, and it's like damn, I can see what got yall into him in the first place, and look at how far hes fallen

"Where do you think you're going young man?"

"I'm just going to play xbox..."

"After you do the dishes, take out the trash, shovel the walk and listen to your Kanye, then you can play xbox."

"Aw, mom...."

samosa otm

Sasha Frere-Jones

sfj otm -- "What makes West more energizing than annoying is his relentless enthusiasm."

so there's nothing left to say about this thing, right?

r. These days, West often surprises us by choosing not to be surprising.

uhh okay

surprise!

let' have a toast for the douche bags...
