The College Dropout aged like milk

Seriously, this shit sounds like ringtone rap.
Why Kanye pre graduation sucks?

Kanye didn’t get good until 808s

CD and LR are leagues above Graduation, though.

unironically this

Some of the chipmunk stuff sounds kind of dated but overall the album still sounds great and LR aged like fine wine.
Graduation is the one that aged like milk, just go fucking listen to Barry Bonds or Drunk Girls, seriously.

Graduation has flashing lights at least and doesn't sound as dated. People told me Kanye first 2 albums were his best.
Bullshit, it's ringtone rap. Plus why so many fucking skits? Jesus

>Just go listen to the worst tracks on Graduation to see how bad it aged
toppest of keks

Actually his best album

Ok I admit only remebering the first two songs and flashing lights, so there is a good probability that it aged like shit too, LG is any better?

How? The production pales compared to anything post graduation

You could also listen to The Glory, Good Night or Good Life, they all sound just as dated.

The actual writing was what I enjoyed. It felt more consistent to me. And the production wasn't that bad.

>Good Night
Maybe his best opener with the exception of on sight

you must be at least 18 to post here

Wrong time of the day user.

late registration is his magnum opus you fucking plebs

lol. I'm gonna fucking kill myself

>MUH LYRICS
Are you kidding me? The best thing about post graduation kanye is that he does hip hop for people who don't like hip hop.
Seriously this man is shit at rap, the production is what makes him good.

Penitentiary chances, the devil dances
And eventually answers to the call of Autumn
All of them fallin’ for the love of ballin’
Got caught with 30 rocks, the cop look like Alec Baldwin
Inter century anthems based off inner city tantrums
Based off the way we was branded
Face it, Jerome get more time than Brandon
And at the airport they check all through my bag
And tell me that it’s random
But we stay winning, this week has been a bad massage
I need a happy ending and a new beginning
And a new fitted, and some job opportunities that's lucrative
This the real world, homie, school finished
They done stole your dreams, you dunno who did it
I treat the cash the way the government treats AIDS
I won’t be satisfied til all my niggas get it, get it?

>white peoples opinions on kanye
id rather read Sup Forums

cd and lr are kanyes worst albums by a lightyear i have no clue how people consider them to be his best work, and kanye is my favourite rapper of all time

i'm actually asian

You're straight up wrong. I don't even understand where you got this opinion other than hearing it from one of your friends who also doesnt know what they're talking about apparently

true ascendance

anyone else here asian?

I don't have friends who listen to kanye, I listened to all the fags on this board and all over the internet who told me that CD and LT were his best.
Probably has something to do with the fact that I hate hip hop and like kanye just because he's not that much of a rapper
Half asian

me hahaha

hi is this the asian thread

I used to think this way too, but after getting a little bit more into hip-hop and coming back to it, CD is the comfiest hip-hop album in existence, with some good not-so-preachy conscious lyrics on top. Family Business and Spaceship are absolute pleasures to listen to.

BREATHE IN, BREATHE OUT

Christ if you think Kanye is ringtone rap you need to go back and listen to actually awful shit like MIMS and Soulja Boi. Kanye saved mid-2000s rap from being entirely pop-rap trash, just like what it's turning back into now with the popularity of mindless trap-rap.

Now even though I went to college and dropped out of school quick
I always had a Ph.D: a pretty huge dick

Only a few songs suck, like Breathe In, Breathe Out and Get Em High. I still think songs like Family Business, School Spirit, Through the Wire, Last Call, New Workout Plan and Jesus Walks are god-tier Kanye tracks.

Watching the music videos makes it even worse. I feel like an old man looking at that shit now.

yeah you can say CD aged like milk, but you should admit graduation and 808 aged like goddamn vegan store food

im asian

im italian

im asian

>just go fucking listen to Barry Bonds or Drunk Girls
Am I the only one that likes those songs?

I like them too...

I'm asian

So am I

This. Graduation was him commercializing his sound even further. Its a good album but Flashing Lights doesnt touch more than half the songs from CD or LR. Also the skits are great. Best pleb filter.

Barry Bonds and Drunk And Hot Girls are two of the better songs from the album ya fag.

When will the "Kanye is a shitty rapper" meme die? People saying this are the same ones that listen to Lil Uzi Vert and Lil Yachti.

Ok. He's not shit, but he's much more of a producer than a rapper.

CD and LR have the best actual rapping from him, but after that he focused more on production and overall songwriting

This. MBDTF was overhyped overrated garbage. Seriously.

Kanye is about as good a rapper as Uzi or Yachty, which is to say mostly fine, occasionally fantastic, with some horrifically low points.

Because you turned 10 in 2010.

Also this unironically.

Nigger you probably werent even able to walk when this shit was released.

Absolutely fucking disagree there. And I will never agree hes a subpar rapper.

even old Kanye, which i grew up with and love, has a ton of bonehead punchlines.

not subpar, but certainly not in the league of the all-time greats (who fwiw also wrote a lot of terrible lines over the course of their careers).

As the people who loved Kanye West move on to different things such as classical, post-rock and the good subs of metal we see an increase in the amount of retards talking about how bad Kanye West is while their last.fm has 15 different rappers in the top 20 with "lil" in the name
You need to become more aware of what is going on around you. These people are products. One guy said nothing but Gucci Gang for a minute and a half and that's his most praised song? Please. Grow up.

I think its insulting to put him in the same range as Uzi and Yachti though for real...those kids are straight garbage. I will be the first to admit Kanye is mediocre but Uzi and Yachti and the rest....terrible.

Only good tracks from CD:
Jesus Walk
Slow Jamz
Through The Wire
That track after Through The Wire

Only good tracks on LR:
Diamonds From Sierra Leone
Golddigger

Only good tracks from Graduation:
Most except Barry Bonds, Drunk Girls, and Stronger. Flashing Lights aged better than any Kanye song from a sheer production perspective

Only good tracks from 808s:
Welcome to Heartbreak
Robocop

Only good songs from MBDTF:
Dark Fantasy
Power
All Of The Lights
Monster
Runaway

Only good tracks from Yeezus:
Black Skinhead
I'm in it
Blood on the leaves

There are no good tracks on TLOP

Gucci Gang goes far harder than anything Kanye's ever made though. Nothing Kanye made feels that visceral and nihilistic.

>nihilistic
Say what you want about the tenets of national socialism, at least it's an ethos.

AAAADAAAADAAAADAAAADAAAA THAT'S HOW THE FUCK YOU SOUND

how can one man be so tasteless

Nah I disagree, your taste is just silly.
Fags who make these kind of posts thinking anyone gives a shit deserve the rope.

>college dropout
>ringtone rap
nigga graduation is the epitome of ringtone rap what the fuck is you on about. next you'll be tellin me mos def and little brother are ringtone rap.

Idk how nihilism is so hard to get. There's no objective meaning in life, you make your own meaning. Simple as that.

The "you make your own meaning" part is existentialism, nihilism is just "There's no objective meaning in life"

The production is god-awful.

Both share that idea, it's not exclusive. If anything it's been talked about multiple times and is what based shit like the master/slave stuff in nihilism works.

He sat on that verse for a very long time user

This.

While there are a few missteps on this album, (The high frequency that comes in during the chorus of we don't care, the new workout plan) this is still hands down Kanye best album. Graduation is shit and if you like it you're a furry.

If you think CD is dated you're underage.

Even the shit tracks on Graduation don't have that shitty mix master job that CD and a lot of his music in general has. Graduation is his best mastered album overall so the good songs on it end up sounding far better today than his other weak ass shit.

not true at all, the mixing is indeed not bad, but the samples on that album are trash, literally "dude daft punk" CD is so much more intriguing in a compositional sense, you've probably only heard it once too.

But again if you don't even like hip hop then idk why you would like it.

Milk, when aged properly, becomes fine cheese.

Kanye has aged more like a wet shit on the sidewalk. He still stinks, but now that he's all dried up he kinda just blends in with the dirt.
