Kanye West - Dark Twisted Fantasy

its like kanye thinks there hasnt been any good ilm polls recently.

btw at about midnight last night, i saw a dude roll down a city street at about 50 mph in a big blue truck that said "ICE CREAM" on the side with a lit cigarette and "Runaway" blasting at top volume, just like

vooooooorrrrroooOOOOOOOM ~*let's give a toast to the asshoooooooollllleeee*~ EEEEEEEEErrrrvoooom

totally justified that song's existence to me

KNAYE FT. PUSHA T AND THREE BUMS WHO SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME AND HAVE NOTHING TO SAY

DRUDGE SIRENS

what a piece of shit

also, don't like pusha's kanye junior style. kind of a step back for him as a rapper

otm on all accounts

but let's face it totally a step forward for him as a dude. probably having the time of his life right now

also yes

gotta wonder how malice feels

so are clipse finito or

jalice

clipse are, like, brothers, i don't think they're ever gonna oasis shit up, probably just realizing at a certain point solo career(s) are a better idea than what they've been doing.

Kanye West

there was a hot 97 freestyle recently with pusha and kanye

anyway pusha is like "i just give y'all my life, straight up, imma just tell u" then freestyles

"Malice found religion, Tony found prison, I'm just trying to find my way up out this fuckin kitchen"...so....i guess malice when xian or something?

yeah he's writing a new christian book, there's videos of him reading excerpts from the book very dramatically

i knew Malice was getting all christian rap ish when he freestyled on a Mary Mary song

i can't believe anyone thinks Pusha "freestyles" though

yeah he quite obv doesn't -- wait a few months and this hot 97 verse will show up on a song

i don't think anyone thinks those are actually freestyles?

haha yeah i dunno it just felt like m@tt was saying he was being really spontaneous and honest and just blurted that out

do this is "out"

the album version of runaway is 10 MINUTES LONG

"runaway" is like the quintessential Kanye song imo

what is out?

oh no, i mean, it seems like hardly anyone "really" freestyles nowadays, except maybe some battle dudes but even a lot of that seems premeditated.

it's kinda sad now cuz when dudes really freestyle it almost seems weak because we are so used to the writtens

xp clean retail album leaked

oh

i've long thought that ensuring that the initial leak of an album is the clean version or a shitty bitrate would go a long way to making some people actually buy it when it's released

it's 320 kbps tho

but yeah

all of the lights sounds so so huge and great mastered. but most of these songs are just pretty boring when it comes down to it, right?

for posterity

official liveblog rap album review thread

oh yeah if anyone hears about a dirty leak, bump this thread

huh this is a murphey lee song from 08, kinda nice!

Dirty version has leaked

already on it holmes

Now you can hear some girl say "Yeezy had my pussy reupholstered." Charming.

*crosses off bucket list*

Audacious and masterful albeit exhausting enough that I think one listen is enough for me.

which one of you is KyleP

nabisco otm

i really like this album a lot but like i have no idea how it's gonna age -- i'm wary because i find 'graduation' pretty distasteful at this point even tho i dug it when it came out -- feel like as kanye gets worse as a rapper he has to step it up sonically, and i think he pretty much did that here, but maybe those surprises will eventually cease to be surprises & the album will kinda just feel like a dud

but that's down the road -- i'm bumping it now

this is pleasin meh

this is pleasin meh

this is pleasin meh

i like to read the rza having the last verse on "so appalled" as a sly commentary on the crapfest that is that song
rza is just so appalled by cyhi da prynce -- like, he can't even rap, he's just reduced to screaming about how ridiculous it is

i like the songs for the most part, but my first impression is that this thing is horribly sequenced.

i like that most of the singles/high profile leaks are clustered in the middle and the songs that are still 'new' (to me, at least) are around the beginning and end, but beyond that i can't tell from one listen if i like the sequencing. i'm not sure there's any sequencing that would make me like this more, at least.

This his second worst album. After five listens I find most of this lazy if not stupid lyrically (I'm very tired of an ostensibly straight multimillionaire still -- still! -- finding whores his ideal of femininity), and not particularly adventurous sonically. I love Cudi's bit on "Gorgeous" (he sounds menacing and attractive in a way Kanye can't mimic), find "Runaway" obnoxious-good, and the rest is okay to terrible.

most of these tracks sound like products of uninteresting superstar self-absorption.

nitsuh's review is A+
