Yeezus had a strong theme and therefore it was easy to cut a lot off

TLOP never had any strong theme, it was just vibes for Ye at that time

You can't compare both eras at all

what makes you even say that I swear yall want to cut the most characteristic things in an album it's those little things that make ye music stand out to me imo

TLOP has a stronger theme than Yeezus does. It’s just that the sound profile is all over the place, and that would still be the case if it was cut down.

Bro would've cut Saint Pablo and call it redundant or smth idk what these dudes be on itt

I disagree, Ye had a clear vision with Yeezus and Rick Rubin perfected it with him. Ye also wanted Yeezus as minimalistic as possible.

That wasn't his goal with TLOP, he still had a theme in his mind but for him it was clearly more vibes around that era but he perfected it. Something that he lost with Donda, you can easily cut half of the songs there but TLOP is pretty much flawless to me imo

What is Yeezus' theme lol

They all have serious brain damage and want albums to be 10 songs. Thankfully artists barely listen to their fanbase

Minimalism, he said a minimalistic couch he saw inspired Yeezus

Isn’t that more of a production style rather than a theme

Lol

Just saw the video Ty posted

Theme: 1. the subject of a talk, a piece of writing, a person's thoughts, or an exhibition; a topic.

With songs like can’t stop , summer leage etc

Regretful raunchy s***freak entrepreneur

You could say such but if production isn’t consider somewhat of a theme then most albums don’t have themes

Yeah absolutely dumb to think that

Production also have its themes lmao

Most albums don’t have themes

The Organ based production on donda is what ties the album the most together imo

It’s the first album where Kanye shed his image from being Kanye the artist to being Kanye the human. In a weird way, it felt like the the flaws on the album were intentional and Kanye was actively trying to create an imperfect album.

There’s this constant clash of crude lyrics with beautiful production on the album.

Donda is seriously one of the most sonically unique albums in recent years

CD and LR are also Kanye the human, so no, it's not his first album
