    I agree its definitely a great and iconic album for hip hop, Kanye, and even the mainstream music landscape.

    I think Barry Bonds and Homecoming bring it down slightly and that Kanye is not trying as hard as he is on albums like LR or MBDTF. Like Kanye at the moment wanted the album to sell and be popular and accessible so you can hear that its slightly dumbed down in a way. I think if he didn't care for those and was simply trying to make the best piece of music, he couldve gone even further with the electronic and futuristic sound he was going for that he eventually further explored on 808s.

    homecoming is literally one of the most popular songs on the project. i personally like og home way more but i do appreciate him making a song with chris martin and what that statement was for a hip hop artist to collaborate with a huge pop voice yet maintain his voice and creativity, rather than succumb to a sound. same idea behind heard em say

    barry bonds & drunk and hot girls hate is dumb. they are both fun songs with greats bars that are always fun to play. wayne verse on barry bonds

    drunk and hot girls is literally one of ye's most experimental songs

    I love Drunk and Hot girls and will always defend that song. Kanye went full Psychedelic Rap on that song.

    Barry Bonds i think is also good and a fun listen but not on par with the rest of the songs.

    As for Homecoming its interesting you say its on the most popular. In my experience, the most popular are Good Life, Stronger, Flashing Lights, and Cant Tell Me nothing. I definitely appreciate how he uses Chris but song sounds a bit too safe for me

    i've just heard a lot of people ranking it as a low tier Kanye album. I've heard people s*** on it for lyrical content, quality, ect.

    A low tier Kanye album is still a classic though.

    another major thing is...ye's ability to flip samples went god level. If you really pay attention, just the way he deconstructed samples and intertwined them with the electronic elements he was using is amazing.

    just from a creative standpoint...you have to admire the orchestration behind it.

    of course ktt user baella prefers ye or jik over graduation

  • Feb 18, 2020

    There’s an argument for Graduation being the best Kanye album tbh. It’s easily his most “feel good” and “old Kanye” Kanye album, filled with classics on top of classics
