The ONLY Kanye West Thread (hip-hop, punk, rap, albums)

I knew he was going to do that......back out of it. He even said on 106 and park that he has another album coming out in december.

I think his last album wasn't that good. Has some good tracks, but it wasn't as good as his last albums. Anybody else feel this way? Really I think he went the wrong way, and turned the music into a bad direction.

I'm a big fan of the Luis Vutton Don. First time I listened thru "College Dropout", I was blown away. Someone was bringing a new, distinct sound to hip-hop, and it was desperately needed, imo. "Late Registration" was a fantastic album, and I even enjoyed the hell out of the mixtapes between albums.

I think the production of those albums alone made them great. He's clearly got an immense gift for making unique beats. Add onto that his flow and the way he writes, and you've got yourself some magic.

Quite unfortunately, I didn't hear the same in "Graduation". The flow was there, but I thought the beats were (for the most part) lackluster. From a purely expectation point, I was disappointed. I think it's still a good hip-hop album, and probably couldn't be mistaken for anybody's but Kanye's. Still, compared to his first two entries, I just don't think it stands up.

Kanye is good, in my opinion, one of the best in hip-hop right now. I'm not a big fan of gangster rap (50 Cent...), nor am I a fan of 'snap rap.'
