I didn't listen yesterday to the album and just did again. How could you hate on this? Only real whack thing is the verse on Water. This is a good album.
It seems like more of a prayer than a rap verse, at least to me anyway. Once I thought about it like that i really started enjoying the verse much more.
in 20 years this will be remembered as one of his best works
For real, this album is absolutely beautiful. I know music is subjective, but I can’t believe that people don’t love this.
So he’s saying “Sunday service on a roll” on God Is? I thought he was saying on the road.
The dancing with the stars bar is my favorite line on this album. Top tier Ye bar
I read this right when that line played
It’s not like I listen to this album and hate the sounds. The production while not very detailed compared to his other albums not named ye is fine - though the mixing obviously is a weak point. The album is just very bland and lacking in substance for Kanye. The songs are so short and don’t feel fully developed and so when they end it feels anticlimactic.
The lyrics really don’t offer anything in my view. I wanted to hear Kanye talk about his spirituality and how it affects his life or his journey to getting to where he is now in terms of faith. But all we got is surface level praise of God that really could’ve been written by a Sunday school student and you wouldn’t know any better. Not only because of the simple rhyme schemes and the lack of any kind of depth to them but because there’s really not much personality to them. Which is such a rarity for Kanye because his strongest trait as a rapper has always been his charisma. People who say, “Well I don’t listen to Kanye for good lyrics” are lying to themselves. He’s always had interesting things to say in the past and cool lines despite not being the most technically impressive rapper out there.
This album feels so uninspired, roughly put together, and barebones compared to his past work. Would you be happy if this was the only Kanye album we got for the next 2 years? Would there be enough for you to be rewarded on more listens? This album has been out for only a few days and I already feel like there’s nothing more I can pull from it. Yet I’m still picking up things from KSG in the production and themes/lyrics that relate to Kanye’s circumstances to this day - an album that was seemingly in the works for far less time than this one.
I get what you're saying, I was hoping he'd delve into more about his spiritual journey and what he's been through.
I just really like every song on this album, been listening to it on repeat today and pretty much like every song apart from the opener.
good point about 2 years, i'm hoping this isn't the only release ye does and if it is I would have wanted a deeper album, but I think i'd enjoy this album just as much on more listens. I guess i'll just have to keep listening and see if my opinion changes
I understand all the points you made but the album just clicked for me, you make some very strong points though
i was listening to power 105 after a drive
dj clue played follow god and it slapped harder than the rest of the songs
i hope he keeps making christian songs.
