So you liked ''Yeezus''?

Kanye has 6 albums.

4 of those albums were good eg. College dropout, Graduation, MBDTF, Late Registration.

4/6 IS HIGHER THAN 3/6.

IT'S FUCKING MATH.

EM HAS 3 CLASSIC ALBUMS, KANYE HAS 4 CLASSICS


Well I wouldn't say Kanye has 4 classics, not to me any way...

I pretty much see... College Dropout and Late Reg as 'very good', Graduation as his best / a classic... 808s as very good... MBDTF as excellent and Yeezus as interesting.

But, as a Ye fan... I don't rate his first two as much as others; really don't feel that gush of OMG @ either of those albums. But they're still totally top-to-bottom consistent, well thought out, brilliantly put together, aesthetically solid... Kanye is very consistent and keeps raising the bar, artistically; I feel like each new album (even Yeezus) has been a big leap to somewhere new.

But he doesn't have 4 classics to me. Just no real bad album.

Lmao @ 'it's over'.

Em could put out another 5 Encore's in a row and it wouldn't be over.

Just feels like we need him to make a classic, and he knows that...

But it's not like Relapse and Recovery were dogshit; all he's done is not made a classic since TES... which is a long-ass time but album-wise it's... 3 albums: - 3 classics, 1 shit and 2 decent... the only one really with a higher standard of consistency right now is Kanye.

It's just so emphasized in Em's case due to the holy trinity all in one go and then drastic nose dive.

I never called Relapse and Recovery dogshit. Maybe I was a bit over dramatic with "it`s over", but it is not far from the truth. He needs an album that will be great or a classic or he should retire. I was just describing what I got from that ending, not what I really think.

Wait a second someone just said Kanye has 4 classics? Kanye has 1 classic. 1 debatable. 1 great album. 1 good album. 2 horrible albums.

I said that because I believed that's what Embase was implying... read the page first.

Kanye have 3 classics imo.

College Dropout, Late Registration and MBDTF.

Grad and 808 are very good.

Yeezus is good.

i'm sorry but you're an idiot if you think this song sounds like a Recovery leftover.

and ESPECIALLY if you think it's anywhere near WBD in terms of horrible lyrics and delivery.

Yeah, I can't stand WBD. I can at least listen to Survival when it comes on shuffle.

It's probably a bonus song; but I wouldn't care if it was a single.

I dont think it is. I mean they released it way before hearing about MMLP 2. So yea its probably just a promotion bonus for COD.
