What makes him so special?
Is he really so great that I should bother with listening to one of his albums?
If so, which one is really his best?
Start with his first. The music should speak for itselft.
College Dropout is a classic album regardless of genre. After that Late Registration and MBDTF are essential Kanye, the other ones are a mixed bag.

no college dropout/mbtf is a bad way to indroduce kwest. Try listening to the whole of Graduation in a marathon and then listening to what songs you like the best.
Here it is, the essential list of the top 100 albums created by Viper the Rapper and related acts.
This is an objective list, niggas can be irish 7 isn't even that good so people shouldn't expect it to be on here.
Thank you :^)
thank you
I kind of want to make a mega of all this shit, but I'm lazy
Apart from the usual /noise/ discussion, can we also talk about what makes noise good/bad/successful?
Like, people definitely talk about noise being good or bad, and I think there's reasons to it. And we lump all noise in here too, but there's very different approaches to noise that are all mixed together (eg. as an extension of punk as opposed to an extension of free jazz, for example).
There's also noise that means something (eg. the noise in pic related feels very cold and harsh, like brittle ice, which is probably on purpose considering the album title), there's noise that's clearly about enjoying yourself and the freedom you get with noise (I feel like Kazumoto Endo's While You Were Out is like this), and noise that's supposed to be punishing, or restricting, etc. There's also noise which isn't really supposed to mean anything (Pulse Demon might be a case of this). What do you think of this kind of distinction? Does considering this sort of thing help when you listen to the music? What if you're making noise music?

>noise
>meaning anything
Just enjoy it for how it sounds and stop overintellectualizing noise like an autist you faggot
Ksssh ksssh it sounds good, who cares?

>stop discussing music on a music forum!
>>72450540
>discussing music
What discussion? I don't see anyone critically engaging with the OP, probably because it's pedantic and no one cares.

Artists who wouldn't have made it big if we lived in a world without females
All of them?
Girls listen to music too, you know.
Every female artist.
This is a garbage poptimist trash.
I still love Gorillaz, but this is their worst album by far.
>>72486544
But it's their best album.
forgot to add "album" to the end of the first sentence whoops
>>72486556
It's really not. It's pop mainstream trash. Their new album is less pop than this actual dumpster album.
Hey everyone my 11 year old cousin died yesterday of a sudden and unprecedented brain hemorrhage. She had no ounce of control over her death. She hadn't decided to drive one day and ended up in a car craash, she hadnt gone to a party, she wasnt doing anything but lying in bed when it happened.
She loved Gorillaz but sadly she didnt live long enough to listen to humanz.
Post your favorite gorillaz song bros.

She's not missing much
>he didn't get the leak
If I were about to die and my choices were pirating an album that isn't out yet or dying without hearing it I'd pick the former
What is your honest opinion on the new Gorillaz album? Out of 10, what would you rate it?
8.5
I just listened to this album for the first time today. How is it this fucking good? I expected meme music, and I got some great pop.
What does /mu think about KKB?
i have a crush on sarah and find KKB's music emotionally crushing, in a good way
let me be the first to say:
It sounds like you have a crush
It's garbage; kys neeto.
ITT /mu/core that you hate
>American Football
>Radiohead
>Kendrick Lamar
>Brand New
>Slint
>any Kanye album except Yeezus
>any AnCo album except STGSTV
>Wavves
>Odd Future
>AJJ
>Sigur Ros
>Joanna Newsom
All of it but especially Loveless
>Kanye West
>Death Grips
>Grimes
>AnCo in general
>Radiohead
why does /mu/ glorify these albums?
that's what you call entry-level indie. not that they're all bad albums, but it's like glorifying Starbucks on a haute cuisine forum.
