Ye hasn’t done anything great since 2016 and it’ll stay that way I’m afraid

So you heard Come to Life, Ghost Town, Cudi Montage, Reborn, Off the Grid, Believe What I Say and still think that?

OTG is probably the only exception, the rest feel like decent attempts at recapturing things he’s done better in the past

Idk I still think Donda & KSG in general are better than TLOP and I love that album

KSG has grown off me, there’s definitely mostly good stuff on there but outside of Ye’s verse on 4th Dimension I don’t like his vocal contributions. I could see liking it more as a short concise listen, but pound for pound it’s not touching Pablo or the best 7 songs from it imo

Donda is cool I still don’t think the highs are as high as Pablo though and I don’t think it comes together as convincingly as a whole. The production and drum sounds kind of suck. I actually like JIK more sonically

Word? JIK sounds like dog s*** to me. The mixing alone makes my head hurt lol

Daytona and KSG alone proves this to be false.

Both projects are good but not truly great to me. I think most KTT users could’ve produced Daytona just as well in all honesty, that’s some easy mode boom bap s***

And yeah I’d agree that most of the same stuff applies to drake but even more so to Ye for me. Plus drake’s peak wasn’t as high as Ye so it’s not as much of a disappointment

Yeah...you're definitely trolling lol.

Daytona is one of the best produced albums of the last decade.

And KSG is critically acclaimed and has a consistent sound throughout it.

I didn't even touch on Donda which also has great songs on it even though the album itself was bloated and just solid.

You're just holding Kanye to high standards.

Edit: And I disagree with Kanye and Drake. Drake's newer music literally sounds like watered down versions of songs he made from his prime years with the exception of HNVM which tried to stick out.

Kanye's newer music may not be like his 04-16 music but it's still pushing more boundaries than Drake's. Ye's production sound today doesn't even sound like any of his 2000's era music.

I could see what you mean by the mixing but I think the production aesthetic on there is probably the most futuristic sound Ye has done, I think the final execution was a little off in various ways (as with everything post Yeezus) but I see what he was trying to do with that album, it’s a very clean, utopian, Apple version of minimalism, it definitely sounds like an iPhone. Donda was a continuation of that but felt a little bit blander in sound selection to me

His most forward thinking records are easily 808s, Yeezus and JIK

You’re gassing Daytona lol the beats on there aren’t all that. It gets held up high because it’s a short, concise, consistent and safe album, made by the “safe” hip hop artists for redditors to enjoy. Various Griselda projects namely Pray 4 Paris and Pinata/Bandana are much better in that same lane, then there’s experimental production masterpieces like Shabazz Palaces Black Up, there’s the Kendrick albums, the Tyler albums, Alchemist catalog, there’s seriously a wealth of albums from the 10s that are better produced. Everything from Atrocity Exhibition to Nothing Was The Same is better produced

The Ye brand is just strong and people really bought what they were sold on Daytona but the beats aren’t amazing, people were just happy to get a commercial boom bap album

Edit: come to life and believe what I say are bootleg old ye
