I hope this album is way better than “Yeezus” as a Kanye fan I really hated that album, just my opinion
Real Kanye fans just understand he was coming from somewhere else with that album. I know for a damn fact, if you went to the YEEZUS concert you were not standing idle when Blood on the leaves came on. Real Talk for all these Yeezus Haters…
Dude whether you are a Ye fan or not, Yeezus was just not a good album. It had its songs like blood on leaves, new slaves, and maybe even bound 2. But apart from those songs, the album was no good
So then nobody wanted to hear “can’t hold my liquor”? Or what about “on sight”? I also forgot “guilt trip”. Wait up “send it up”. Anybody who he went to the yeezus tour knows most people if not all were vibing to the songs he played, which was the WHOLE Yeezus album.
Im not saying people will not vibe to it. Cus honestly anyone who is a fan will fuck with w.e Ye puts out. But even Ye fans can admit that Yeezus was crap. Most of the songs you mentioned are crap. Especially the production. Just cus people fuck with the music, doesnt mean its good.
You tellin shit like is the fucking truth. That is all YOUR opinion dude. I am a Kanye fan and I thought Yeezus was one of the best albums of 2013, because I am not as close minded as the rest of this hiphop scene.
It aint about closed minded. People just don’t realize it wasn’t an album that was appealing to a lot of people. If that was the intention, then it succeeded…
but if not, then it wasn’t successful. When an album is really great, you don’t have a large percentage of people saying that it’s terrible.
There’s no huge group of people saying “The Godfather” was terrible or “Thriller” was unlistenable.
The fact that you have Kanye fans saying that they don’t like it means it didn’t connect with everyone. That’s reality.
Thank you, lol
Just cus you liked it doesnt mean the rest of the Ye fans gotta like it. You are obviously tripping mad balls if you think Yezzus was one of the best albums last year. Even Childish Gambino’s album was better.
thats your opinion fool me and my friends love that album and all the songs mentioned were great, you just didn’t like it thats all keep calm
Dude just cus you and your friends like it doesnt mean everyone else does. I can guarantee you there is a large population of people that dont like Yeezus
Wow, I’m literally shaking my head. This man is pushing music forward. This album and the live show are a piece art. People won’t realize how great it is until a few years from now. NOBODY is doing what Ye has been doing.
his core fans appreciate his music but that doesn’t justify the album not being great. Theatrically i’m sure it was impressive but that’s not an album you can listen to on repeat, be honest.
thats where you’re wrong, because i had the album on repeat all summer YOU just didn’t like it
I seriously give you props for having it on repeat, cus with me i could barely listen to the whole album again after my first listen. After only listened to blood on leaves, new slaves, and sometime bound 2
BLACK SKINHEAD IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS TO COME OUT IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS!!!!!
You sir do not know what a good song sound like
So why is he rushing to make another album so quick? That album sold strictly off of his reputation and fan loyalty. One more of those risky albums can definitely ’50 cent’ him.
i like it more than 808’s though. that computer Kanye was uncomfortable to listen to.
I feel 808 had better songs imo. In ex: heartless, welcome to heartbreak, say you will, amazing, etc.
whoa. Bring back the GOOD Fridays series too Ye.
one of the best things that happend to hip hop. Best thing to happen to hiphop/social media. All those songs are classics. Please listen to Haze Kanye lol
already? whoa…
Nah why u lying?
idk why niggas hate on yeezus and 808 & heartbreak
I understand why they hate on yeezus, but not 808. 808 was actually a proper album unlike yeezus
that autotune album? can’t say i was a fan of computer Kanye. That whole auto-tune era was a low time for Hip Hop music .
we are still in that “era” rahtard…
less recognizable now, shhh….
I thought it wasnt to bad, i was good with autotune when it came to Ye and Weezy
808 was a new thing and now it is a classic to me.. yeezus is also a new thing and it will be a classic soon
i guess new album title will be Yeezus 2
808’s was a genre-defining album, masterful, MBDTF was twice that. The only niggaz hating on that album are some cats who are afraid to say they like it in public because it ain’t “hard” enough. The ideas and thoughts in that album are genuine and relatable, catchy as fuck too. That whole album is smoke and drink music. Yeezus didn’t stick like that one did, but not everyone can do it every single time.
Time for a new Throne album! Jay sounds like he been in the booth lately and hype man Bleek just dropped some opening act material.
Nothing is more of a slap to the face of a fan than postponing or canceling tour dates for no good reason (health problems, family matters). A lot of people get dates off work, book airline tix and hotels for these shows. Then they get postponed and these people won’t be refunded for their travel arrangements. That’s just a big fuck you.
why doesnt that go both ways? the artists go through a lot to schedule those dates and they cram their schedules to be there. you dont think kanye wants an extra day of pay? you dont think kanye wants to see 20k ppl scream his name?
dont see how that could possibly go both ways
No good reason? Oh so we’re not counting the reason why people are buying tickets in the first place as a good reason? FOH
WTT
Brother have to work now. Good music coming as always.
Thats a bit too fast since the yeezus dropped. Im wondering about the quality of this lp
I’m surprised he’s doing another album so soon.
The Yeezus haters are played out, real talk. Kanye specifically took all hits from the album to get away from radio and inspire artist to do the same, instead of struggling to make cheeky radio hits but make music THEY actually enjoy. Cole Sean Los Wale Kirt and almost all others struggle with his problem and Ye is trying to start a new movement to get people away from this. Also this album is like 99% chance WTT2.
This is media training at is finest. This nigga ain’t selling tickets, & this misdirection with him working on a new album to not let the fact show that his demand is dwindling. Media bullshit 101.
lmao this dude better go back to his old ways and fast…
please don’t name the album yeezus 2-yeezus walks lol…but good for him.
Cole gotta drop another album this year too! Screw that 2 year album cycle.
New Ye album? YES
I really hope this year will be big for Ye. I was thinking he puts out this album, lets the public see the Cruel Summer film, and then he and Hov team the fuck up for WTT2. Maybe that’s wishful thinking, but hey
new album will have maximum 8 songs and it will be named Yeezus 2 .. i think
The Yeezus album is truly ahead of it’s time. Sonically, it sounds like no other album. If you saw him perform it live you would most likely have a greater appreciation and understanding of what he’s trying to do.
it’s time for GOOD ASS JOB :))
Dude, honestly this should end the debate on whether or not a lot of people liked Yeezus. The album was named rolling stone’s 2nd best album of 2013. That’s ALL music, not just hip hop!
