"I tell em to eat a d*** quicker than Mexicans sprint over borders"

i didn’t wanna start mentioning projects this site gassed cause it was gonna derail the thread further but best believe if something like Her Loss can be considered a “great” project, then im not sure what the hold up on TLOP is

Im so dapper man, funky fresh Dapper Dan

Anyway, s***posting aside, all love, like what you like, enjoy the music that speaks to you the most

to me his 'imperfect' sound would be 'sticky' which i f***ed with, whereas the songs you mentioned sound like him obsessed and tinkering to the last minute for no gain

i think i'm the opposite in that he has a lot to say on this record but it's stifled by his relatively comfortable production that shows no forward path

I love Kanye bro hes like the closest thing to Michael Jackson imo

But I really grew up on Ye, it used to feel like he was representing for kids like me. If u dont have that feeling of growing up really feeling like he was making it possible for you, then i completely understand why niggas love his newer work more. But for me it just doesnt feel the same idk how to describe it

I still love Ye tho and wish him the best life possible

TLOP is Kanye's last true classic. Wtf y'all talking about

also i agree with this

i feel like theres a lot of similarities between the albums due to the fact they kinda divided their fan bases its like for me ye started making s***tier music after this but doing waaaaaay more s*** i thought was cool like bruh really ran up a couple billi my capitalistic mind couldnt help but go insane

go listen to cowboy right now his last verse on there is so f***ing insane

Check out that Rust song. It's dope

Good album but not better than CMIYGL or IGOR

His lyricism on wolf was not good, the music and the hooks was great. Wolf was like the first time he came with hella great hooks

Wolf and cb he was writing some careless ass verses honestly those albums is really where the narrative that T is a bad lyricist came from bc in 2011 niggas used to be like “he weird but he got bars”

B******, Flower Boy, and Chromakopia were the albums where I feel like he actually was getting off verse for verse

Call Me too but like that was all it was it felt very purposeful on there vs him being in a good mode on those other albums

NWTS!!!!!!!

DAMN!!!!

it's not even that he was just uniquely confident and charged
i'm sorry some may disagree but when you start falling down the grandiose production rabbit hole your raps suffer

the nba team I root for doesn't affect the quality of TLOP. 6/10

Bro he was going f***ing crazy on seven

Still immaculate rapping til this day

B******-Radical tyler was a great run for tyler lyrically. I feel like OF really was inspiring him to put in work with that pen those days

Imo chromakopia is way better than cmiygl

Im kinda confused on what makes cmiygl better can u give me some perspective on that, i love that album but it feels so hollow compared to chromakopia

He’s been mid for awhile im afraid

100%

But its only because the beats dont leave a lot of room for rapping.

There are some exceptions to this though like MBDTF and TPAB

aye man that nigga was barring tf up!!!!!!

wolf was the peak of his rapping because it was the perfect balance of story telling and edgy bars with a splash of introspection. cowboy is just probably my favorite example of this the last verse is simply pefect not a bar wasted

yeah the way Ye was moving business wise was powerful and I like fashion but i wouldnt say im like OD passionate about it

So when the music dipped Ye kinda lost me, i did like some stuff he did in Wyoming like daytona and teyanna albums were amazing but everything he did after that did nothing for me

preme out da bag its no wrinkle im okie dokie and loopy and boo boo nana and caca if you think im f***ing cuckoo try talking to my shrink then...

ye was so ass
