Yeezus more overrated then MBDTF

this narrative has been gaining traction recently. i always knew ye would get hit with that revisionist history one day
he hasn't had a hit album in nearly 5 years and this generation is too "what have you don't for me lately?" to respect what his older music has accomplished just like eminem
DONDA better be the one or else niggas gonna start saying his first 3 aren't classics
you acting like Im calling it trash

Yeezus and Graduation are not the same.
Late Registration is God Tier.
Aug 12, 2020·1 replyAmphernee HardawayGood Fridays were raw and street and very clearly aimed at my demographic, 20 something black male who loves Hip Hop
MBDTF was made to win a Grammy. I dont give out Grammys so I'm thinking it wasnt made for me.

Streets, Urban, all just words for the Black audience and that's where Ye's initial fanbase came from. LR he tried to broaden his fanbase and Graduation was where he was able to appeal to everyone without compromise.
After that it seemed the music was geared less for the "streets" and more for the mainstream audience.

i dont think he ever made his music for any specific race like that
he usually does w/e the fukk he wants even if that can lead to some missteps

MBDTF still concludes with Gil Scott Heron though. I might agree with you more if we were talking about Yeezus

Just because it ended with that doesnt mean the album in its entirety wasnt a bid for mainstream aka white acceptance.
That's what it symbolized to.me.

For you to think that Kanye wasnt speaking for the Black experience early on must mean you couldn't connect to it.
Which means you were.most likely not Black.
It's all good, music is for everybody. There were just certain things that I connected with in Ye's music that sorta got left behind as his
career grew

career grewhave u listened to the HW leaks? the version of lost in the world on that has a diff edit of the gil scott-heron speech that speaks more on black experience
it's interesting, and in that way i agree w/ u about mbdtf's appeal to white people (as in, appeal to a larger audience), cus the final version's edit makes that speech seem more universal (to americans at large, i guess) than the HW edit does
