    Do you think he's someone who wants to stop? Leave his discography be? Or do you think he'll continue to make and release albums because he loves making music?

    It’s almost like he never said he’d never stop making music as that’s what’s afforded him the opportunity to do all of his other ventures....

    Or that he’d make music until he has 50 grammy’s....

    Or like he is of the belief that the music is something he has full control over...

    Hard for me to imagine Kanye ever not making music in some capacity, he loves it too much.

    I was just posing the question. I'm obviously on your side in that he'll continue with albums and music throughout the rest of his life, but what the heart wants and the reality of the situation is often different.

    uhh

    Subject matter aside - i think it's a safe bet that the production and sonic detail is about to be on a whole other level than Ye and JIK. Even if you love those last two albums, they were deliberately stripped down and inarguably rushed in places. Like at the very least he's not gonna be punching in on verses minutes before this one drops.

    All signs point to this being the kind of elaborate and meticulous creation that we haven't witnessed from the man in a long time is all I'm saying. All of this time spent making/scrapping songs, along with the big name artists he's been apparently working with say, to me, that he's aiming big here in a way he hasn't since MBDTF. The That Thing sample alone has been telling us all along that he's not gonna be playing around with this one.

    I think, like most people, you're reading the last few albums very wrong

    deliberately stripped down ≠ inarguably rushed

    both ye and JIK were years in the making and were the result of lots of songs being made that Ye wasn't feeling as much as the ones we got in the end, it can't be stripped down and rushed at the same time, if the album had too much going on it would be rushed, but the fact it was as you said deliberately stripped down indicates there was care into how the final product sounds

    Ye's vision for everything is stripped back and minimalism

    You can say you don't like how the songs sound and I can't argue with that, but you can't criticise the creation of them when he spent a lot of time working with others on making the beats, more than some of his other albums

    I love the Doo-Wop/BWIS sample but when Diddy was doing that s*** in the 90s people were calling him a super lazy producer for just utilising a super popular sample and not doing much to it, so I don't see how that really indicates he's putting a monumental amount of effort into it, even though it sounds great and that's truly what matters

    He will no doubt be punching in verses in the last few weeks before its released and there's nothing wrong with that, if anything its a good thing he doesn't just rest on his laurels with bars that are outdated and that he doesn't feel anymore, it shows he cares

    He probably won't have the mix done until after midnight on the release date because he's a perfectionist and he'll insist on further mixes be done until he's happy with it even if it ends up sounding "worse" to some people (like how the Follow God mix was originally clearer but he requested the album be pushed back for a dirtier mix)

    ray of light

    This is his last album. :/

    I'm almost certain he's gonna be making music, shoes and clothes as long as he's physically able to, and even at the point he can't I think he'll still be around younger people doing it

    No because the absurd amount of effort put into MBDTF was very much a conscious decision. Kanye wanted to create a perfect, and as he's said later, 'critic-bait' type record. Something to prove that he could make an album like that. He had the core team playing basketball together and having strict regimes, whether it be dieting, exercise, and studio time. I don't see him slipping back into that music-only mindset, especially with YZY gap on the horizon.

    I think if this album is like any of his others, it'll be a mix of TLOP and YE. But then again, Kanye has always pushed forward, tried something new, reached new personal boundaries, so who knows? Will this be about his divorce at all? Will it be about his continuing faith journey? We won't know until we hear it. All I can say is that I'm excited for this album in a way I haven't been since YE, so the feeling is restored for me, personally.

    I think he's past the conflicted way of thinking of TLOP and ye, he's picked which Pablo/Kanye he wants to be and its to be the family man
    I expect him to build on JIK thematically and lyrically
