even making this comparison undersells the level of departure yeezus is …from a “career saving” opus to one of the most subverted abrasive mainstream albums in a long ass time
Trash births trash. Yeezus beats are terrible. And going from Pierre to Filthy is terrible.
that’s not even getting into how Yeezus is actually genuinely an experimental album and had production that essentially no other hip hop artist had at the time (save Death Grips, really) you can tell that album was made with the purpose of being an actual left-field release
niggas hear this dude Carti scream and drawl (something Future, Thug, and Wayne have literally been doing for years before him, mind you) over some sawtooth synths over a gay vampire aesthetic and want to immediately drool and jump to Yeezus and groundbreaking comparisons, because the scene has been so insanely dry s*** is so sad man

Perfectly said
the fact that this is all you need to make a parallel speaks to how low standards have gotten for music moments. Y’all wanna reach to make parallels like this to convince yourself people are on a certain level instead of holding them to a higher standard to where he’d naturally make a Yeezus level album relative to todays sound (aka WLR is different but not as drastically different from things as Yeezus was) to begin with.
A polarizing album means it’s the successor to another polarizing album from a decade ago? Lmao
Also unless y’all are like 14-17 (maybe y’all are) why do y’all treat 1995-1999 like it’s 30 years before 2000-2003 with this old head s*** 😂
i can agree with this and still stay it’s the closest thing to yeezus
carti live show is literally just him screeching and it pretty much eclipses most live shows from his current class. gotta be relative
its not touching Yeezus overall but I can see it, the intention and execution is similar

Its funny bro, every week there is another Yeezus thread on here, and Im thinking "man stop overrating it, theres so much better music out there"
Then a thread like this gets made and it makes me appreciate the greatness of Yeezus, thanks to the comparison.
This take is laughably bad.
My final conclusion: hip hop as a genre is in the gutter, the song writing has become so awfully bad and mind numbingly repetitive
Yall r dumb as f***. Yeezus split fans upon release, so did wlr. Yeezus switched up the sound and influenced those that came after it, so did wlr.
You f***ing oldheads need to collect your social security and pension and stop being so stuck in the pAst
You're definitely a teenager.
WLR not as influential as people make out tbh.
Horrible take
It influenced a whole new generation of the underground
