http://www.rollingstone.com/music/reviews/album/45342/232350

makes up for eminem's album:troll:
the clean version (sucky, I know) leaked today

thoughts?

[filth]

words cannot describe how good this album is...

dark fantasy's vibe and beats
the guitars in devil in a new dress..rick ross's verse...
runaways full version..
hell of a life and blame game

I think its safe to say kanye west is GOAT. Go out and support the album on november 22nd.

[raygunpk]

yes, album is fire.
did you get the bonus tracks too filth? i haven't heard those ones yet.

[sonick]

Explicit leak yet?

[filth]

explicit is leaked, chain heavy is one of the bonus tracks that was released last friday as a GOOD friday track.

For those that dont know, kanye is doing a "GOOD friday" thing where every friday he releases a free track featuring himself and other artists. Hes been doing this for the last couple of months and its going on till christmas. You can download all the tracks here: www.kanyewest.com Their all dope ass tracks too.

[strykn]

this cd is the only hiphop I am listening to again besides trance

[hongy]

Can't wait to buy, yes buy, this album.

[rslater]

All of the lights is amazing. I actually think its awesome how their are so many artists and yet it feel like just kanye and I think that just shows how he was able to use guest artists but still keep it as his own.

[JSALES]

can't wait to cop this album

[hotjoint]

solid album

[filth]

is it fergie rapping at the end of all of the lights? Fuck, that's the only part i hate on that song.

Ima cop this shit on vinyl too, swag.

[Fuhrër-Z]

^agreed, that dumb cunt comes out of nowhere and almost fucks everything up.
I might actually buy this album....

[dhari]

all of the lights! such a great song!
blame game is awesome too. chris rock at the end kills it ahahhaha

[illicitstylz]

this cd is the only hiphop I am listening to again besides trance

Hit the nail on the head lol
Absolutely loving Dark Fantasy and All the Lights

[shenmecar]

Just got the album, surprisingly good!

Power and Runaway are my favourites

[aliuu]

decent rap album, overrated

[Ludepower]

He has a couple good songs...but not all hits.

I like the power remix, all of the lights and monster.

I still think Drake album was better.

[Alpine50]

Picked it up today, hopefully I love it as much as everyone else

what would you considered a good album? I would put this album in the ranks of many great rap albums

Im a huge Drake fan but im just gonna say that last statement was straight retarded. So Far Gone was 2 times better than TML....

[sonick]

I am not a huge rap fan, and even less of a fan of Kanye's older album, but I pre-ordered the vinyl:

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (Vinyl): Kanye West: Amazon.ca: Music@@AMEPARAM@@http://img.amazon.ca/images/I/51mOs9APM0L.@@AMEPARAM@@51mOs9APM0L

The package design is just too astounding to pass up.

[JSilver]

Picked it up today.

This is honestly one of his best albums by taking rap at a different angle, IMHO. And I'm not talking about no Drake shit (Don't get me wrong, Drake is good) but this is totally something else.

His album is difficult to describe, but what he has created in it, illustrates his genius in music.

I know what you mean when you say it's hard to describe. It's definitely unique, and it's something I've always loved about Kanye's music (aside from his personality, which I could give a fuck about).

I'm sick of Drake's emo shit. :rolleyes:

[illicitstylz]

hope he makes all the lights his single

[filth]

he should make hell of a life his single lol

[JSilver]

"Pussy and religion is all I need"

[filth]

how they say they live their life wrong, when you never fucked with the lights on? fucked with the lights on, fucked with the lights on, fucked with the lights on, fucked with the lights on

[aliuu]

what would you considered a good album? I would put this album in the ranks of many great rap albums

In the ranks of great rap albums? lol his debut album "the college dropout" shits on this 5 times over. Reasonable doubt, Illmatic, liquid swords, the big picture, ATLiens are all better than this album, and that's just from the top of my head. Maybe it seems like such a great rap album since every other album that released in mainstream was trash. I'll admit this, the production on this album is fucking amazing, but too many features, and lyrically isn't up there. Old Ye > New Ye all day

[filth]

imo late registration is better than college drop out

[aliuu]

I'm not going to disagree since LR was great as well and the both are pretty much on par, I just liked College Drop Out better because of Through the Wire, Two Words, and All Falls Down those three songs are memorable as fuck. His first 2-3 albums he released show what hes lyrically capable of (although hes not the best it's better than what hes showing right now).

[Wongtouski]

YEEZY TAUGHT YOU WELL

[Wongtouski]

is it fergie rapping at the end of all of the lights? Fuck, that's the only part i hate on that song.

Ima cop this shit on vinyl too, swag.

Isn't that M.I.A?

[raygunpk]

All of the lights has: Rihanna, Alicia Keys, John Legend, The-Dream, Fergie, Kid Cudi, Ryan Leslie, Charlie Wilson, Tony Williams, La Roux’s Elly Jackson, and Elton John.

It is Fergie rapping that one part.

[raygunpk]

Complex does a behind the scenes feature on the album:

Shoulda had this song on over Monster:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnUW5DUpLYo

reminds me of old kanye. too happy sounding too fit with the album though. but f, monster sucks.

[filth]

monster goes hard, see me now wouldn't fit with the rest of the album.

[Vinny G]

I agree. College Dropout is probably one of my favourite albums of the past decade. One of the few CDs I can listen all the way through without skipping a track. Hell, I even love the last track where he's mostly talking about his career. Late Registration is up there too. This album is good but I honestly don't think it even comes close to Kanye's first two albums. I might get flamed for this but I think this album is way overrated (97% on metacritic).

[G-spec]

So glad he went back to his Rap hip hop roots for this shit, although not 100% but that's totally fine, album rocks.....
when I heard the beat drop for the first song Dark Fantasy, and I heard the beat drop that was a Wu Tang sample, I knew it was Hip Hop the rest of the way, and it hits hard....
the only thing annoys me is fuckin Nicky Minaj with her scream whisper style fuckin rapping or singing, or whatever the fuck she's doing... bitch it ain't cute, it ain't different, get over yourself

don't get me wrong though, I'd tap dat ass doggy all fckin night though she can make all the weird noises she wants too then, but bitch got no bizness ruining good fckin songs

[aliuu]

This is exactly what I meant, I'm glad someone gets it. This album is FAR from perfect, I don't understand how you could put this over his first two albums when his first two albums were fucking amazing. When it comes down to the classic hip-hop albums in the last decade My Dark Twisted Fantasy won't be there, but College Drop Out and Late Registration will be. Also he should have put Looking For Trouble on instead of Monster, J.Cole's Verse >>>>

[JSilver]

Comparing his first two albums and THIS specific album isn't quite fair in my opinion. They're almost two different genres or style in rap. Its like comparing Jay-Z first album Reasonable Doubt to say Kingdome Come or Blueprint 3.

No one says its a perfect album but honestly album after album with Kanye just gets better. He's trying new things every album and it seems to be working.

IMO.

[bloodmack]

Kanye may be a douche, but his music is pretty good IMO. I love the part where he talks about the chicks pussy and he asks who renovated it LOL.

Don't think you can exactly compare This to his first 2 because.........this one (to me) has become a full-on music album, not just a niche hip-hop album. But still I love the first two very much.

[twitchyzero]

i agree with aliuu that this album has been hyped a little too much. Don't get me wrong it'spretty good ..but i would definately not consider it one of the best hip-hop album ever...

Nothing will top College Dropout for Kayne

[Alpine50]

finally got a chance to listen to this album, i love it its dope.
happy i made the choice to buy it

[KingDeeCee]

Who the hell said that? Its not even close to any of his older albums. (808s doesn't count)

[filth]

520k first week... not bad i guess considering this time and age and he had no radio single.
