This album is to 2016 what MBDTF was to 2010.
I'm sorry you 16 year olds don't understand it yet. Maybe in 4 years when everyone starts sucking its dick you sheep will follow along. Might as well screencap this post because this love-hate cycle is like clockwork and I know I'm true.

Welcome to 2009.

Really gets the noggin joggin'
I figured out why I didn't enjoy this at first
It's a mixtape, guys. Think about it.
If he just marketed this as a mixtape and maybe lowered everyone's expectations a little bit, this would've gotten massive universal acclaim.

there is no difference between a mixtape and album
>>69020122
except there are
artists put thoughts on the tracklist coherence and order
TLOP was made via Twitter 5 days before its release
>>69020199
not that guy, but you can do that with a mixtape
literally the only modern criteria for a mixtape is not being commercial, and even then some mixtapes are

I agree, but a mixtape generally exists outside of an artist's canon (Chance excepted). TLOP is Kanye's first bad album, but that wouldn't really hurt his legacy if he didn't call it an album

Get out of here, Kanye
>>69020353
TLOP is not bad as a collection of songs though, which an album is by definition. just because it doesn't adhere to accepted models of critique doesn't devalue it imo
>>69018658
collaboration in art is like screenshotting. the more people involved, the poorer the quality.
also yeezus is better
>>69018658
it's started to grow on me since i first heard it. at first, even as a huge kanye fanboy, i thought it was a 4/10, it's up to a 7/10 now. still think that it's his worse release.
>>69018658
MBDTF was fucking shit, I like it less than Pablo
>>69018754
agreed
the sound collage thing is cool. Kanye has no shame using other artists music and uses huge chunks of other songs but its all pretty well thought out. too bad for all the shitty songs though
