I'm sorry but Bully is awful in its current state. AI vocals over nearly unedited samples and some of it is just poorly made remixes of the samples they're utilizing. It's obviously got potential but right now it's a glorified demo (because it's Kanye, over-glorified). Your fascination with even Kanye's very worst albums in recent years is astonishing to me.
Idk he's like Bowie and Dylan and Neil... Can have whole years of lackluster work but still know how to tap into an emotional wellspring occasionally that only he can. That demo of stuff he did with James Blake that just leaked has potential as well.
@RASIE is with me on Bully being great as it is. I don't know what's AI or what's not but it sounds interesting to me.

See I can understand being excited for the potential of Bully and even if you have a biased soft spot for Ye compared to others, is crazy to me that you see Bully 'great as it is'. It's so clearly an unfinished, hardly worked on demo... to each their own though. I hope Ye has a comeback and healthy 2026

idk its like a lo-fi bedroom demo vibe like Elliot Smith would make if he was rapper or something. its tender.
especially weird knowing he was making literal nazi album at the same time. what a psycho.
genuinely thought he was gonna off himself this year when he was losing his mind on twitter. just glad he made it through that s***.

I see the bedroom pop (rap) vibes. Just think it's nowhere near completion.
