OFFICIAL Ye fka "kanYe West" x G.O.O.D. Music Thread - ¥$ (AKA YE X TY DOLLA SIGN) - VULTURES 2 (NOW AVAILABLE sorta)

[nice dolphin]

Y’all cappin if you saying yeezus wasn’t hated. That was the very first Kanye album where people swore he was washed.

And add the fact the Cole came out with born sinner the same day, people would look at you sideways if you said you were bumping some dam yeezus

I remember, vividly, having a summer class with a yamb I was tryna get at. Whole semester she was feeling me, talking to me everyday in lab. She was a huge Cole fan, and asked me if I listened to the album. As soon as I said I was listening to yeezus instead. I could literally sense in the atmosphere that thang quickly dry up. She ain’t talk to me ever since

Tbh, I feel like this was the album where the demographic of the majority of his fans changed drastically to what they are now.

Cultish, hypebeasts who are predominately white.

Saying black people don’t have culture sounds normal???

[heatpinoyboy]

Wow lol what is this souls anchored song it sings just like Ginuwine. This + city in the sky...so many songs that just leave me confused why he decided to not throw em on

 

[the natural mystic]

MBDF is definitely his best album. Followed by CD.

I don’t get what y’all hear with Yeezus. It’s absolute garbage to me. I have given it plenty of chances and I can’t get jiggy with that ****.

I’m positive “Jesus Is Born” will have all these songs. It’s featuring Sunday Service Chior.

I would switch Graduation and 808, otherwise this is my list as well. Guess I just prefer the old Kanye.

Ye was ***

 

[SpittaJetLife]

Kanye overdue for some Trump slurpage.

 

[htg designs]

I usually rock with a lot of your view points. Out of curiosity is there an album out that you feel like accomplishes what Kanye was attempting to accomplish with Yeeezus?

Im not even sure I know what son was tryna do really. CD was his soulful sample steez. Used LR to work in more live instrumentation and symphonic sounds. Grad has alot more electronic elements. 808s as more minimalist. MBDTF was upscale grime. Yeezus? Im hearing edm, punk, house, and alot of choas. I dont listen to much rap any more but I cant recall if theres anything Ive heard that tried to exist in this same vein.

 

[WASPS ANDD ASPS]

I only rock with CD and LR

Didnt like Graduation or MBDF and stopped checking

[nako xl]

Ehhh... this dude is a black right-wing sympathizing conservative. He's on the record as saying black people overuse the word "racist." Idk that citing him is going to achieve the effect you're seeking, if it's what I think it is.

 

[cashbanks]

do people really believe he's making sense?

 

[cragmatic]

Anyone else think it’s funny how much merch he is selling for this “gospel” album.

I’m enjoying the album, but the fact that at the end of the day he’s really using it to make a profit makes it less authentic to me.

 

[cashbanks]

the fact that he jumped to gospel as he was spiraling personally and musically didn't make it seem less authentic?

Nah, I thought this as well.
Kinda felt it was his way of not having to “compete” per say with Drake and whoever else is big in rap at the moment.

Almost like it was a cop out to stay relevant musically.
