Metacritic also has Yeezus sitting at an 84, so, most of us know not to take their numbers at face value.

critics trying to put numeric value on a piece of art always makes me cringe
stans who use these numbers to justify anything always make me laugh

Awards are so sketchy they can’t even be taken seriously. Companies/people who make money off the artists are also responsible for awarding them? Ahhh anyone see the problem here?
Scores for music is also trash. What’s the metric for Picasso’s work? Those scores are once again generated to funnel money a certain direction, create a buzz, and to justify the purchases of the weak minded

“Critics” are also as susceptible to the “influence” of the industry as anyone.
If you can “pay for play”, you don’t think you can finesse reviews?
But he was indeed challenged on other points and responded with hugs.
Seems like he was there to get his “ideas” off more than he was interested in actual discourse.

Thats what I got from it. It seemed like he was just there to have his voice heard.
I don't think he was expecting someone to stand up and say something.
Those TMZ hosts aren't looking to challenge Kanye intellectually. Its not their fight. They want to be the platform for his voice, no matter how ignorant, to drive revenue back to them.

Love the Gambino song/video
However, it's def a formula now to make music with that content to make everyone
just like Kendrick winning the Pulitzer for Damn, like tpab never came out...

I hope the formula sticks. You get them nodding along to the music and the message will penetrate the subconscious. That's one of the reasons TPAB was inaccessible to a lot of people.

Except his words are being used by racists to justify their racism.

what does that have to do with your misinterpretation of ‘redeeming in the public eye’?
regardless of racists using his words as justification
redemption in the public eye means forgiveness, not agreement
**** are you even talking about

There is NO redemption from what he said. That’s the correct answer

The question isn't really a good one though.
How the hell we supposed to know how he can redeem himself to the general public?
He made dumb *** statements, publicly. If anything he should apologize and start reading so he can actually be knowledgeable of the subjects he's speaking on instead of looking like an idiot saying stupid stuff then asking for hugs and tossing out "I love yous" like a significant other that doesn't want to admit they're wrong when challenged.

I mean why does someone need to be redeemed in the first place. Billions of other people on earth. He’s done, move on to someone else.

Oh yeah I fully agree, not everyone needs or deserves redemption. But this could really bring him back to earth.
The cover with the crown of thorns and then a song called "I Am A God" was really showing folks where his head is at. ***** really thought he was invincible now he's out here lookin crazy and acting like a victim.

THIS. the redemption thing is very binary and i think most people are still gonna listen to the music and what not but will kinda have a different respect for him now when it comes to non-music things. like he made it very, very clear he's not CD kanye anymore. the redemption thing is also kinda stupid because its like he committed some crime. he just exposed himself as being very out of touch and straight up stupid. not sure redemption really applies here.
