    Up there with The Beatles and Michael Jackson..I wouldnt go that far. But he is talented. I like the first 3 albums he released. The last 2 albums aint my twist.

    Was is just me or was Teyana Taylor trying 2 carry those notes a bit too far? I mean overall she sounded good…but she was trying 2 be on some operatic tip

  10. CTE says:

    Dam dont mention the pop rapper when kanye up stan dam.

  11. CK says:

    That was just history man. Damn. Kanye is true to himself. and a musical genius by the way even though MBDTF isn’t his best work, it was great. top 5 rappers of all time? not for now but soon in a couple years i guess. (and no wayne)

  12. Blue says:

    Recovery = 4 features
    MBDTF = 14 features SMH…

  13. sideshowRaheem says:

    When Kanye does songs like “All of the Lights”, “Hell of a Life” and “Lost in the World” in a full arena next year whooooooooooooaaaaaaaaa

  14. HAHAHAHAHA says:

    Recovery= Garbageeeeee compare to his best albums
    MBDTF=An hiphop Classic just like his first 2 albums

  15. Kanye needs to just shut the fuck up and appreciate the moment….he runs his mouth too much.

  16. Dan says:

    @Daniel Warhol

    So you think he would be that famous if he was quiet ? Quiet people get quiet attention and quiet money….Kanye creates mass hysteria, hard truth to swallow right sir?!?

  17. HAHAHAHAHA says:

    ^^^^^^LOLLLL AMEN

  18. D-manded says:

    kanye imma let u finish but these 2 niggas got the best videoo of all timeee http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bEwozoSNCc

  19. EMANDEM says:

    Fans paid $106.00 a pop to see Kanye West last night

    ^^^^^

    which means the hood who put him in that position in the first place gets no love smh.

  20. Belize says:

    Everything was dope!! Then Onika came. -_-

  21. Alex says:

    Recovery>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>MBDTF easily. If you disagree, most likely you don’t pay attention to the lyrics.

  22. Belize says:

    Alex dont cry cause your boyfriend album was wack!!! Just take it as it is.

  23. Word says:

    Em stans vs Kanye stans?

  24. TornadoWatchTheThrone says:

    Recovery fans need to sit down. Probably the same faggots who think “Crack a bottle” deserved a grammy. Em used to be the best in the game, but not anymore. Kanye got the crown and the better album. On the real, the only reason Em is pushing more units is b/c he is white and doesn’t say “nigger”. That draws all those guilty white people to buy his stuff. Here is a list of the people running things right now: Kanye, Lupe, Cole, Wayne, and Drake. Khalifa is doing his thing too. SCREW EMINEM.

  25. Blue says:

    Kanye’s production is great, no arguments…however, he can’t rap for shit, that’s why his album is filled with features…

  26. […] Teyana Taylor and Justin Vernon joining Ye to perform cuts from his Dark Twisted Fantasy. (Spotted: RR via NB & […]

  27. raw rap says:

    nice album .. not the best but nice one

    @TornadoWatchTheThrone the black/white shit AGAIN ? – “SCREW EMINEM.” –. lmaooo you must be 14-15 .. damn kids

    goddamn you people can´t just enjoy the music and SHUT THE FUCK UP

  28. Bloopers says:

    @ Alex

    “So fuck the world and feed it beans
    It’s gased up if it thinks it’s stopping me”

    Lmao hahaha We did pay attention to the lyrics which is why we thought it was so whack so “quit playing with scissors and cut the crap” #Kanyeshrug

  29. Loko says:

    No Stan here just keeping it real

    POWER> Not Afraid
    Blame Game> Love the way you Lie
    Gorgeous > No Love
    All of the lights > White Trash Party? Seduction? take your pick

    Not to mention the beats on Recovery were mediocre at best & Kanye albums get Kanye West production so… Eminem is 1 of the greatest emcees but Kanye is probably gonna b 1 or 2 for greatest hip-hop artist when its all said & done. He understands music better & cares more than anyone else.

    Bravo on the Speech , this time it feels if he spoke for ppl like me and you in the da streets or whatever you do through the tough times in our life.

  31. AnuKinSkywalker Da rap darth Vader since 2005 says:

    GOD MADE HIP HOP (INTRO)

    CHECK MY CHANNEL UP LOADS LEAVE A COMMENT LOVE ME OR HATE ME.

  32. John says:

    lmfao at losers comparing Kanye’s CLASSIC album too Recovery SMFHH

    No album has been this raved about/well-recieved since OK Computer….Kanye created an album that’s ACTUALLY up there with the greats like Pink Floyd..Led Zeppelin..etc…His score is 95/100 on Metacritic…Kanye is already a legend..A GOAT..He’s killed and changed the game 5 fucking times…Lames get in line…This is why he’s had 14 grammies with 4 albums…My nigga is the DON. This album is going to be the album of the decade, everyone already knows it, the biggest critics are saying the EXACT same thing…Even the indie ones that like white punk bands are giving this shit 10/10’s…

    Kanye >> Your favorite artist

    Forever

  33. John says:

    My nigga doesn’t even have to SELL OUT and drop shit like Not Afraid and shit, he drops 2 SUPER non-mainstream songs, REAL SHIT like Power and Runaway (samples Pete fucking ROCK) and my nigga still does crazy numbers..Damn Kanye…Running Hip-Hop since 2004

  34. Haters are annoying--> BELIZE, cold blooded (i already hate u ), mac weasel, lucass says:

  40. Errol says:

    @Greg
    Nicki’s estimated to do 400,000. Banks I dunno, but Ne-yo’s expected to do like 125,000

  41. Your Friendly Neighborhood Dopeman says:

    Co-sign @ EMANDEM, smh…

    Supposedly Banks is estimated to do 40k – 50k…I doubt that’s what it’ll be but wont be disappointing to me if it is…Album is dope, 1st album I bought in a while.

  42. Reggie says:

    Lloyd Banks dropped what is a modern day classic gangsta album, opting for quality over quantity, and the result is a great album with tons of hot songs and no bad tracks. Songs such as Father Time, Start It Up, and Take ‘Em to War are great tracks that will have this disc on replay for awhile to come. It may be the best release of the week, but hopefully it does not get lost in the shuffle.

  43. Donn says:

    Hey guys, i found this cool blog that posts stuff about rap, pop, rock and a bunch of other shit, so if u like things besides hiphop, it has it up there

  44. Ganzz says:

    I’m an Em’ and a ‘Ye fan – no stan, don’t get it twisted, but the production, the lyrics and even the features all help to make MBDTF a classic.
    ‘Ye created a classic album all the while throwing up the middle finger to the mainstream media that chopped him down since that MTV incident. Fuck the haters, if you don’t like it, don’t bump it? But when you sit there and run your mouth, or your keyboard chopping another man down = you’s a hater.

  45. Ganzz says:

    I’ve got room on my iPod for MBDTF, HFM2 and Recovery
    HIP HOP

  46. ReppinHard says:

    I still can’t understand why people actually think Recovery was a good album :-S

  47. gmoney says:

    @Blue
