Jesus Is King sucks

jesus is king was actually a dope record though, musically and lyrically.

jesus fucking christ people if he literally took a dump in your ear you'd find some way to find it a fascinating look into the kanye's fractured psyche

Case in point: Jesus Is King

I mean, we live in a world where people are posting multi paragraphs about how Lift Yourself is the best diss track of all time so it shouldn’t be that surprising

the record's not about his fractured psyche though. it's about trying to heal.

i'm not going to convince anyone here, i know. but like, there is a reason people love these records. for a megalomaniac he is weirdly willing to make himself seem vulnerable, even ridiculous.

it's like, the opposite of a well-crafted take on twitter or ilx

for a megalomaniac he is weirdly willing to make himself seem vulnerable, even ridiculous.

Almost like he's more of a narcissist than a megalomaniac, eh?

the album was originally called Yeezus is King iirc

the record's not about his fractured psyche though. it's about trying to heal.

fucking BULLSHIT it's narcissism with a paper thin veneer of prosperity gospel bullshit. spends on god bitching about the IRS and why he has to charge $800 for clip art sweatshirt designs.

it's peevish, self-centered, greedy, judgmental, ugly and vile. it's a parody of thought, a parody of spirituality.

what a fucking insult to people of actual faith, actual spiritual thinkers.

it's isn't possible for someone with such malignant narcissism to be spiritual. kanye only worships himself.

i hope he gets the help he needs but he was to want to be helped.

and then to actually think it MEANS something and try to post that to me? the the fuck out of here.

yes, because i said he was a profound "spiritual thinker" in my posts. exactly.

I also said it's an insult to people of faith in general

he's a prosperity gospel charlatan

also an insult to music

and fashion

presumably other ppl named kanye aren't too jazzed about him either

treesh you are on some irwin chusid shit, there are _plenty_ of people with fractured psyches you can be fascinated by, just listen to some fucking pneumershonic for god's sake

Kate knows what’s up.

Fwiw I’ve never been a fan of Kanye’s music so it’s a lot easier for me to dismiss his would-be political theatre outright.

he was a great rap producer, he didn't start to suck until he became a genius

I still enjoy most of 808s but it’s really not a stretch to see the seeds of his demise in that album

From Kim Kardashian West's Instagram account:

all fine.
BUT HE IS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT
how are you gonna ask the media and public to provide "compassion and empathy" while you are running for president?!?!?
the dumbest timeline.

also 808 and Heartbreak is a garbage album.

nah 808s rules

hope he gets the help he needs and deletes his accounts and stops running for president

808s is his best album

808s is good

this probably makes me a bad person but my first thought about Kim K's posts was "I bet these would look good in a divorce proceeding"

he's also not really running for presidency

he will be on the ballot in US states! not sure what else you need to do to "really run"

you guys are repping an album with robocop on it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XlCbDPDciM

dang "Robocop" is a jam

yes

I really like "Through the Wire".

808s does rule, "paranoid" is his best song

agreed paranoid is the best song on 808s. robocop is also good, as are most of the other songs on 808s.

*most, meaning not bad news or see you in my nightmares

you guys are welcome to that album and all subsequent lead-kanye recordings, enjoy them in peace and please keep them away from me.

do you get radiation sickness from them or

kim kardashian west otm tbh

Twista should have been his muse

I’ve never understood what’s supposed to be exceptional about this guy’s music except for one mostly instrumental track that featured in an adidas ad during the world cup in brazil. It was mostly because it was just a sample of samba percussion with distortion applied to it. “God Level” I think. Nothing else has ever really caught my ear. I feel like this post is confessional, but then again, I’m also the guy who made the “Worst Steppenwolf Hit” poll.

He did coin "swallowship"

do you get radiation sickness from them or

I don’t get his ‘genius’ as a producer at all and to add insult to injury, his flow is wack.

his genius as a producer can be partially witnessed on the janet jackson album damita jo cf. "i want you"

just one example among many

is this conversation really about his music

"I Want You" is kind of bad, though

ok then pretend i gave any other example from 2001-2004

yeah, in his prime as a producer, his shit was lit. like T.I.'s "Doin' My Job"

forgot about that freeway x twista song, that beat is crazy

Is this where a bunch of the National fans get together and say the most gifted rap auteur of the 21st Century was never actually good
