Kanye West - Dark Twisted Fantasy

i guess "don't be ridiculous, clearly my sci-fi premise makes more sense than yours!" wasn't a big enough tipoff that i wasn't being deadly serious with this whole line of conversation, but sorry guys, i apologize for suddenly making this thread so terrible

(I understood that and lolled, some dude; it was a good remedy for the sprain rmde caused)

everything about ilx is deadly serious

no, i got it some dude

i thought the 70s thing was about whether being self-absorbed was particularly zeitgeisty

i think the public nature of the self-absorption is whats difft now (the cocaine is the same)

You can totally compare their sunglasses.

and there's more worm medicine in the cocaine now

my cokehead dog will be glad to hear that

lol

kinda enjoy the shorthand for it being 'staring at candles' tho

yeah, lol'd @ that yesterday

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

As fir the brief talk about this being like a audiophle test record, uergh, fucking hell, no. Its horrible.

yeah, but how do you really feel about it?

Ambivalent.

I would love to hear more abt why it is disgusting and abhorrent

yeah there haven't nearly been enough mentions on this thread of pussy reupholstery

do i have to c&p my big ol' review about how he treats women, incl. beyonce the woman he made an 18 year old cry for, into personality free robots who only exist for pussy reupholstery?

wut about his moms

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)

even if we find out that his achilles heel is LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURVE?

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

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?

yeah i was just bein' snarky

I'm finding that the more I play this, the less I like it.

It's quite good, but it's not as great as I first thought it was.

We need a final vote tally, yeas and nays.

so this is supposed to be music's citizen kane innit, except citizen kane was good

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).

this is musics the assassination of jesse james by the coward robert ford - ppl may say its important and innovative but rlly its just long and boring and shit and doesnt like ppl

ha i don't remember anyone other than me loving "the assassination of jesse james"

Who said The Assassination of Jesse James was anything other than a pretty, attenuated piece of shit?

although I'd totally understand if it developed a cult following

i was really into it but it was one of those situations where i think i was in the perfect mood/frame of mind to see it when i saw it

ice cr?am loves it i think

i would fucking love an mop soul record

world needs it more than peace and a qatar world cup put together

I'm not saying anything not said elsewhere already; http://sickmouthy.wordpress.com/2010/12/06/wake-up-mister-west/

Just astonished at the gap between the critical consensus on this and my own quite strong revulsion from it.

Believe me, mate, you've got company. Let's have wine.

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?

the worst is when your monocle falls into your wine

have ever tried to get wine stains out of a monocle?

Hostel (feat. Eli Roth)

would listen to a concept album about kanye running a hotel

(o-or a hostel)

fuggin typos *sigh*
