    That artists need to be better at trimming the fat off of projects. On the surface 20+ songs from your favorite artist sounds great. But in both cases it ends up being a project with just as many skips or meh tracks, as it has gems.

    On first listen Donda starts off so explosive. That it's easy to want to call it a classic off rip. But the problem with these super bloated projects is, you give me 27 songs I can't just judge the project off the highest highs, I have to look at all 27 songs, and a lot of times in a number that high there's always going to be a lot of songs the project could've done without. Scorpion arguably could've been a classic had Drake cut the fat and gave us a 12-15 track album of only the gems. Instead there's a bunch of skips and throwaways detracting from just how quality some of the songs really are in the grand scheme.

    I don’t mind Ye dropping a long project because of the respective lengths of JIK and Ye but it could have been trimmed down by about 20 minutes

    I kinda agree but Scorpion legit only had one gem.

    Enough standouts on Donda to warrant the track length.
