comparing artists of different eras is just Shark v. Dinosaur bullshitting anyway. getting too worked up about it is like being the dude who says 'yes but a shark and a dinosaur could never actually fight unless the dinosaur had a scuba mask on, and how could you even make a scuba mask for a dinosaur???'

Can't be arsed to read the whole thread, but this album is disgusting and abhorrent.

also I wld say most non-kanye characters in kanye songs are more or less 'personality free robots'

(meant "kanye verses/lyrics" there as opposed to "kanye songs", i.e. not counting guest verses here obv... speaking of which, there's also uh nicki minaj's generally well-regarded verse if you wanna go there)

kanye has some lyrics about women besides his mother that aren't totally superficial and/or gross, like say "self conscious," but most of them are about that far back in his discography
― It's Long Like Donkey Dong (some dude), Sunday, 5 December 2010 23:27 (thirteen years ago) link
and if this thread were aboutr all his records that would be swell. i cant even remember him saying anything about his mum on here?

This is exactly as good as I thought it was (5-6 fantastic songs, 3 terrible ones, and the rest okay to good; however, almost every song goes on for too long).

I’ve not been as… I’m tempted to say disgusted, by an album in a long, long time. But I don’t think I’ve ever actually been disgusted by an album. I still haven’t. But I do think MBDTF is disgusting. From the 3 minute soliloquy about “pussy reupholstery” through the rest of Kanye’s misogynist, avaricious money and sex talk, to the just bad lyrics and poor delivery in-between the ravenous nastiness, it’s bad. I can’t listen to it in good conscience and good taste anymore than I can watch torture-porn films that depict all eastern Europeans as bloodthirsty tourist killers.
how many times did your monocle pop out as you gasped "well i never!" while you listened to the album?
