Eh it’s great that dissect made this theory but Ye himself just said he made it as a big f*** you to the industry and that’s pretty much it. Guilt Trip was even supposed to be for WTT.
It doesn’t matter if Guilt Trip was for WTT. Something can be for something else and you’re like oh s***, this fits perfectly in this context. I don’t think he just plopped it in the sequencing for no reason.
what story is yeezus telling
The story of a rich black man in America who has a one night stand with another socialite…and happens to fall in love with her even to the point of taking her to those church steps at the end
what story is yeezus telling
They made it up to force themselves to like the album more

He never said any of this though. we can’t just assume this is what it is when it never came out of anyone that worked on the album’s mouth. It’s one of my favorite Ye albums but it’s not a concept album by any means.
The story of Yeezus. A monster awakens, goes through a dark tunnel, and finds Hope through love at the end. Along the way, battling addiction to sex, liquor, wealth, fame…. The album has a clear narrative arc, climaxing at Blood On The Leaves.
Nice fanfic

Yeezus does a storyline but it's not as straightforward or a connected story like this
i love kendricks music but while they do tell a story, i dont think they sound cinematic at all

Sorry bro. I have listened to that album so many times and even I can garner that reach lol. And you said tell a complete story. At the very least it isn’t that.
it tells a story for sure bro

I feel like people try mad hard to come up with concepts for Ye albums that doesn’t exist lol son really don’t be thinking at deep into projects like this anymore
it tells a story for sure bro
if u don’t get it, u don’t get it
Nah it doesn’t. It’s nothing to get.
