He says it on 30 hours outro
I know. But the first promo when the album dropped advertised four bonus tracks. It doesn't get any clearer than that, but very few people ever acknowledged that, and days later that description disappeared.
It was literally advertised as such when it first released after SNL. Via the official album promotion. A few days later, that synopsis was forever removed, and Kanye never mentioned it again one way or the other, leaving everyone in confusion.
Find the synopsis
I wish he wouldn’t have made it so long
If it was 14 ish songs it’d undeniably be his best album
It’s only 15 songs or 16 if you put the interludes back with the songs where they belong
Thank god FSMH is split into two parts. Imagine if that second half was tacked on
Why would you ever listen to one without the other
I don’t get why it’s considered a reach to view everything after Frank’s Track as bonus considering Ye says it himself
It’s bonus tracks but you still gotta listen to them for the full album experience it’s kinda like a music version of the second act of MGSV vibe wise somehow

it's literally better than part 1
Everybody picked up the patch the album trend from tlop but nobody picked up the add a coda after the main tracklist thing
Only album that did that without really mentioning it was sos
FSMH should have included Pt 2 as a whole song
Low Lights should have just been the intro to highlights
I Love Kanye could have been the outro to Freestyle 4
Frank’s Track should have been either the intro or outro to Wolves
We did NOT need Silver Surfer and Facts at all and hot take: We didn’t need Waves either lol
I love Kanye is the intro for wolves
Fun fact about tlop: young thug high on lean got on ig live and said that the album would not be released until after snl. The entire delay and stuff was part of promo and they knew it wouldn’t be done until Saturday night the whole time
Him even going the length to entertain Wiz for that was the beginning of the end imo
It wasn’t even really entertaining wiz it was respecting max b who he knew prior
Rick Rubin would've ruined TLOP
A) Rick Rubin already worked on tlop and has been in the studio for every album since Yeezus
B) southside and metro already did a Rubin style cutdown that made the album more generic
really TLOP would have been a better album with a Rick Rubin Yeezus-esque cutdown. He could have even split it into two albums with as much material as they had
It’s not even that long fam
Silver Surfer might be the worst thing put on a Ye album, even worse than Tell the Vision
Mostly because it’s a Redditors wet dream with how quirky random and hilarious it is
You need the Caroline Shaw version tbh that made it essential listening to me
Be cool if the Nicki extended
verse was an interlude or sum, dam
What Nicki extended verse?
It’s bonus tracks but you still gotta listen to them for the full album experience it’s kinda like a music version of the second act of MGSV vibe wise somehow
I agree with this...I feel that Ye eventually changed his mind/decided to make the album about reliving that experience, hence the decision to obfuscate what is and isn't bonus tracks. Because the point is to live in that moment of the first spontaneous presentation at MSG.
I cant find the original Tidal press release...I had it saved on my old phone. A quick Google search reveals a couple reviews and articles such as in the Fader where they reference the press release.
"The album and four bonus tracks will also be available for streaming to TIDAL subscribers. Note: (1:38 a.m.) The info about the bonus tracks was provided to The FADER by an official TIDAL spokesperson. They do not appear to be part of the release."
It wasn’t even really entertaining wiz it was respecting max b who he knew prior
You might wanna take a look at this lmaoo xxlmag.com/kanye-west-didnt-know-who-max-b-was
I’m sure someone was just gassing him up (French most likely) to mention Max in the first place
Ye wasn’t tapped into that early Coke Wave/Byrd Gang era
What Nicki extended verse?
Just hoping for one or an alternate verse kinda like how life of the party had one

Technically we already have two but the second one is pretty bad

Ohhh yeaaa I haven’t even
Downloaded it since my laptop was f***ed . When I trip I’ll watch
That video

and I STILL believe he fumbled hard by making it a TIDAL exclusive.
