Just to work with The Weeknd
hair plugs got bro thinking he brand new
Selfishly I love that move for him because I really like The Weeknd but his pop music is pretty unserious and Mike Dean can make his albums really good
But Mike x ye the best combo ever
The bigger issue is the fact that he has nothing interesting to say and rap about anymore.
Also, he's regressed into this "burn everything down" 4chan dweeb
i kinda disagree, he's just an idiot and wants to rap about vapid LA lifestyle
my souls, river, and his writers can still cook up when they want to to deliver some more substantive lyrics.
Travis Scott is not a real friend for hopping on can u be while ye was in a nitrous induced rage
Expected from a guy who watched his then manager have a seizure and did nothing
Neighbors know that s*** get outta hand but they smileā¦

I love DONDA but how does something like OFF THE GRID make it out the lab with all the vocals cut ins like that
Can we still consider that song classic with something like that
im prolly giving wayyyy too much leeway but idk. song slaps so why does it matter? again this is prolly super offensive to the creative and a perfectionist but.
Yes
Do you remember when the most recent ye rap output was Jesus is king
Yes that was a sad state of being a Ye fan, and DONDA is amazing, I bump the CD in my truck all the time, but thereās always that splinter in the back of my mind when I hear all the cut-ins on that damn song
Like why couldnāt bro actually rap the verse

This being in caps like this could of saved me tens of dollars
Sky City being destroyed like this needs to be studied
Somehow still worse than the leak from 2018
overreaction / same old s*** imo
his drive for perfection is fleeting and comes and goes
GREAT albums from him will be few and far between here on out, but i still think he's capable.
Agreed. Not like Bowie or Bob Dylan dropped a classic every time
people are f***in wierd man. Imagine writing all of that.
DONDA is proof he can make a classic.
Why canāt mans just make some fun tracks and put em out? Lol itās very obvious these are tracks he likes but doesnāt necessarily love. He just wants to f*** around for a bit
Probably the realest thing Iāve ever read from r/GAS:
I remember a while ago on here someone was talking about how they disliked V1 and I read a comment at the time that basically said, with the degenerative mental illness + rest of the Kanye circus- weāre in a sort of mass sunken cost fallacy/diminishing returns situation where weāre never going to win more than we lose now. The idea that Kanyeās this mad volatile genius who lets things deteriorate to the point where his backās against the wall and then he pulls out some beautiful undeniably great piece of art that shuts the critics up is an over-romanticised holdover from the dark fantasy era lol. I agree that things began to slide for all the reasons u states, but up until v1- even on albums I donāt like like Jik- I still thought there was some sort of intellectual vision for them- even if they were poorly executed. Some sort of conceptual grounding that felt interesting and worthwhile exploring that sort of tied the disparate ideas together to some degree. Jik obvs itās Jesus and on Donda itās that but made a lot more personal and executed infinitely better. But even musically he was trying a drum less āminimalistā aesthetic that seemed intentional and heād make interesting, weird, occasionally polarising exec prod decisions. But it still felt like he was at least directing these albums. V1/2 has none of that mystique whatsoever. Theyāre albums that basically function as playlists, and when the songs arenāt at all tethered to anything greater than the sum of their parts- their flaws are laid all the more bare.
Whilst Iām discussing this- I also just want to add something that I donāt see brought up enough. Kanye has become a pretty dreadful MC in terms of vocal delivery. This I think started post Pablo but has become steadily more prevalent on every album. On a lot of tracks (especially noticeable on something like keys to my life where it sounds like heās actually struggling to stay on beat on what is an extremely conventional and quite slow time signatures) he has this āitās 4am in the studio and Iām rapping these words as I read them for the first time in one take and that engineer can splice it together for me and I canāt really be bothered to be hereā energy. Even on something like off the grid- yea the third verse is good, but Jesus Christ- itās not some no more parties level because itās obviously 80 different takes of him saying someone elseās words that are spliced together and thus no energy or momentum builds through his performance. Itās also an issue on take of your dress. And honestly most songs from vultures. He doesnāt write, he doesnāt produce and he doesnāt sound interested lol.
He is 100% washed and a bit of a joke figure in 2024 if u pop ur head outside this Kanye bubble long enough to breathe air. Look at how the like that verse was ridiculed from the moment it dropped lmao. 2016, even 2020 Kanye is getting the benefit of the doubt on that one but post Hitler and post everything else- people can see through the bs because theyāre just beginning to not really give a f***.

Worth the read if you actually care about Ye
Ye has been washed since tlop
And obviously progressively getting worse every year
I accepted it a long time ago
I'm surprised alot of ppl are still in denial
I still enjoy the music even if it's not up to his old quality
But I'm not expecting Kanye West anymore
I'm only expecting ye
And altho his rapping has declined to the ground the production is still there at least
The fact the fanbase has to do these long ass essays
every album now
lets me know they have been massively coping
Enjoy the circus or stop complaining
Like his old albums?
Go back to em

I agree with letting the man f*** around, but there has been a linear disintegration of his craft over the last 10 years.
There is no denying that.

True but heās 47
A decade ago he was drakes age
And a decade ago he was far better than Drake is now

I have a hard time being that generous when heās so obviously just tapped tf out rn, milking ālistening experiencesā, dropping songs w unfinished verses and ai, itās just unprofessional. He doesnāt owe us or anyone professionalism, he can do what he wants but when heās running around like this I am not going to chalk V2 up to āitās a fun album!ā

I think the better discussion is what Ye Fans in 2024 find to be acceptable ye west musical output.
I like Donda ALOT. but i think we see it as a classic becuase the rollout more than the music. but thats fine and acceptable, and shows he CAN come close to classic, and even make classics in some fans minds,
Kanyes mental decline in the public
Went hand in hand with his music decline
