Is StillAdvance a new user who only came to stan for peak Kanye?

no he's had shitty opinions for years

“Virtue signaling” is the worst phrase

I don't like Fantano or Ye or Kid Cudi but I think Kids See Ghosts is a very good album.

I was hoping for the best from the new Kanye album, I did not have a hot takedown ready to go, I wanted to like it, and as I listened to "I Thought About Killing You Today" for the first time, I posted on this thread, "This is good." Then I heard the rest of the album. It's fucking boring and dull as dishwater. Poop-di-scoop had the best beat of any of these songs. Album fucking blows because it is boring and uninteresting. IMO of course. er, IMHO. (humble opinion)

Yeah I like "Lift Yourself" better than anything on Ye.

I keep getting reminded of the passage from that Chuck Klosterman book about villains when he wonders what it will be like when Kanye finally releases a disaster of an album and how the conversations/dialogue it generates are worth more than the music itself.

Everyone says you’re the best and you believe it. Look at Scott walker - his last 2 records suck
what?? I hope you're not talking about Soused and Bish Bosch. Love both esp the sunn collab

Gave this a second chance today. Kids See Ghosts and 4th Dimension are better than anything on TLOP or Ye, the rest has some good draft ideas that go nowhere production-wise. I’m not paying attention to the lyrics.

I suppose I'm also not really hearing the lyrics lol

The music is not bad per se, it's boring with lazy, unoriginal beat production, and that constitutes "bad" to me in a relative sense. It's not like his lyrics, message or attitude conveyed with the music itself are making up for the "meh" everywhere else. In fact it's exacerbating it.

Seriously throw on pretty much anything from Late Registration and tell me this shit's on par in any facet

lmao Kanye and Kim appeared on Celebrity Family Feud and lost, but Kanye really wanted to do the fast money so they just let him

can someone who finds any moment of Kids See Ghost redeemable like, write about it a bit? i don't hear anything there..

track 3 is classic sample-chop Kanye and track 4 is classic baroque arrangement Kanye. That's about all I really ride for here.

My problem with it and everything Kid Cudi does is that he sounds as bored of himself as I am of him.

Track 4 is the “I CAN STILL BILLILUP RATATATAT” one? can’t abide by it. Track 3 is ok

Track 4 is the one that has that imbecilic, “free” chorus? It’s annoying.

If Childish Gambino started a song with a Marcus Garvey sample and had “I’m freeee” in the chorus, people would be lining up to give him a Nobel Prize

That song is great

Yeah well, Gambino has more charisma in one fingernail than Kanye in his entire body.

I hate this timeline

I can agree with that

kids see ghosts is pure crap, all the music nerds on the web have lost their fucking minds

it is maybe slightly better than Ye, which is all the praise I'm willing to give it

I don't get Kids With Ghosts either.

cool fans, bra

Like many forum regulars, 24-year-old Mikey Vercetti of Danville, Virginia, believes Kanye gets a bad rap and sees the backlash to his Trump comments as part of a pattern. “People weren’t trying to see it from his point of view or learn where he was coming from when he said it,” Vercetti tells me. “A lot of people have to have something to be mad about. They see things and they go, ‘OK, we gotta cancel Kanye.’ But they didn’t think beyond that.”

Vercetti discovered the Kanye to The forum about four years ago while searching for fashion inspiration and gradually got sucked into its culture. “KTT is how I learned to troll people,” he says. “I’ll say something, and if you get mad about it it’s not my fault. You’re the one mad about it. That’s how a lot of people on the forum post.” He’s gotten so used to trolling, he says, that he’s started doing it offline, too. “You know how Kanye said the slavery thing with no context? A lot of times I say things now in real life with no context just to get a rise.”

Using 'cancel' that way has rapidly become a warning sign for me.

Yeah well, Gambino has more charisma in one fingernail than Kanye in his entire body.

lmfao

very on brand ill give you that

w/r/t Nasir: "Adam & Eve" is fantastic, "Bonjour" made me mad at myself for clicking the livestream because it's so gross

Gman - my post about walker was when drunk and I meant drift N here comes the ball, clearly I forgot about the last two. I’m more of a fan of his earlier work and find his new stuff unlistenable but I loved the doc which just made it seem funny to me. I have no place saying or sucks tho it’s just not for me

all of these kanye-produced mini-albums are gross and shit. self-obsessed bad music that fuckheads everywhere are proclaiming the future of rap. gnomic bombast is not innovation, it's the strop of a cunt who fears being irrelevant

Hmmmm...yeah!

imago, if you don't like the Pusha album maybe just stop having opinions on rap

the Pusha album isn't really that different from any other Pusha album, any reading it in to any big Kanye narrative is bullshit

unless you like just started paying attention to someone that's been around for 20 years because of Kanye

and like Nas albums being a hodgepodge of brilliance and demented gross shit is also standard

An' you just can't leave that imago alone
I wonder, have you tried

FP touched down, I'm so grateful

obviously the Pusha album is the least bad of the three - I give it 5/10

really gross cover concept though

anyway, 15 minutes is the new 22 minutes - Whack World is the rap y'all should be paying attention to

unless you like just started paying attention to someone that's been around for 20 years because of Kanye
