i feel like y'all are taking these on god lyrics out of context ... bro said he didnt make a DIME on the yeezus tour, was millions in debt, etc. ... hes in billionaire mode now and these lyrics r just speaking on that
being in billionaire mode should invalidate any lyric about your family "starving"
Man that’s not the issue. I don’t understand why people keep making this excuse as if people are criticizing it because the music is “out there” or different than expectations. That was the case with 808s and Yeezus. Not here. The songs sound blatantly unfinished, unpolished, and lazy. This had the potential to be a 8 or even 9/10 album if he actually extended the songs, maybe gave a bit more layers to some of the instrumentals (especially the parts that could’ve used hard hitting drums like on Use this Gospel), and fixed just some of the lyrics that stand out as poor.
But unlike even the recent Pablo era he’s just not the dedicated perfectionist he once was where he would make sure to clean the songs up until he and his fans were satisfied.
Why do you think they're unfinished? Cause they're short? Imo follow God would lose its catchiness and replayability if it was 3 minutes for example, and other songs like closed on Sunday and selah are to me completely finished. The first 3 tracks on Kids See Ghosts are 2 minutes long each and they also feel finished. Like i said, you're basing your criticism on the album on comparing it with mbdtf which had 5 minute long songs, and Kanye is simply not that artist anymore, but that's not a bad thing, an artist needs to evolve and this is how ye decided to evolve his music. You dont have to like it of course, but of course you're gonna be disappointed if you think Kanye was only interested in music from 2006-2016, which is absolutely not the case
oh yea he was 53 million dollars in debt at one point
being in billionaire mode should invalidate any lyric about your family "starving"
yeah i feel like that, im just saying yall shouldnt interpret the lyrics too literally ... i feel like hes speaking on where he was at financially and the mentality he needed to get out of that rut
they're def a little weird tho man shouldnt have said his family was "starving"
yeah it just comes off as dramatic like even if you broke your sis in law is a billionaire they nowhere close to "starving"
this avi
moon man
