I'm gonna write this as I listen to each song

Lucifer was good, I like the use of the sample, more creative than m&m songs

30 Something, very good song I will admit, but you've got Dr. Dre producing so how could it not be. But Jay-Z's hook is catchy as well.

99 Problems, ya this is an awesome song, classic rap-rock.

okay here I will just say that one of the reasons I didn't really like Jay-Z is the same reason I don't like Kanye or Weezy; they always sound the same when they rap, they can't switch it up and I don't really like the one sound that they have. Now this is most true of Kanye; I just cannot stand his rapping, but I think I could appreciate Jay-Z so far its really good

I've obviously heard dirt off your shoulder before, that said it is a classic.. good song.

DOA, I get it

Dead Presidents 2, its good

in conclusion- I guess I'm a fan.. still don't like many of his features though, Umbrella for example but maybe that will change if I get used to him on albums

This is ridiculously untrue. Kanye made a pop album where he mostly sings with autotune.

Weezy completely changed his style after Carter 2.

The reason those two artists are some of the biggest commercial acts today is because of they're ability to change their sound and stay relevant.

That's exactly my point with Kanye; either he sounds like the same borring rapper, or he uses autotune. And autotune is only good in rare cases.
That being said, I think Kanye is a good producer and he is very creative musically I just wish he would only produce and not sing... that's why I've never listened to an album of his.. but I'm thinking of checking the new one out

I haven't listened to lil Wayne hardly at all since like father like son, so if what you say is true, I might give him another chance.

Actually it's because no one knows where the real **** is going down. I'd probably listen to that **** too if i didn't know better.

Sparky

Wtf are you talking about?
Kanye wests latest album was nearly flawless.

Weezy im less inclined to disagree, but you can't deny that he dramatically altered his style and lead to a new form of rapping that nearly every commercial rapper follows now.

Phantom Limb

Kanye's album was hardly flawless. It appears that I am one of the few who isn't inclined to **** ride yeezy. I personally found MBDTF boring, and not at all as revolutionary as it was pegged. Anyway, Kanye is just one example who stands above thousands of others.

What didn't you like about the album?

Phantom Limb

I just thought that the general chord changes used were pretty generic (not a huge issue), the chorus' weren't very good and that Kanye's rapping was a little bit weak for such a highly praised album. Don't get me wrong, I was very excited to listen to this album for the first time (I had just read the pitchfork review) but I was let down quite a bit. I shouldn't have said that I found it boring, because that's a little bit harsh. I really meant that the album lost my interest somewhere near the middle and didn't grab it again. Basically, that's what I didn't like. I can't agree with this album being "nearly flawless" if I'm not compelled to listen to it anymore. Just my opinion.
