Why do people hate Graduation?

It's his most popular album

too pop for hiphop audience
too hip for pop audience

>>71279594
Surely that would be Dark Fantasy.
>>71279600
I dunno, top 40 pop music was already using hip hop/electronic instrumentals at this point. Could be mistaken.

I don't know, it's personally probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite Kanye album

>>71279636
>>71279642

drunk and hot girls is why its hated. also beat wise its one of his worse

>>71279651
>one track
Illmatic has One Time 4 Your Mind and is considered the greatest hip hop album of all time.

>>71279675
one time 4 your mind is nowhere near bad compared to drunk and hot girls. and its not just one song. lyrically and beat wise its just horrible. all of the lines are corny af and not even in a funny way.
"I shop so much, I can speak Italian"
kind of line is that man

>>71279708
Kanye's always been kinda corny at this point in time though.
>beat wise its just horrible
Examples?

>>71279708
That lines hilarious
The "I eat a lotta cheese award" line is way worse

>>71279853
What's wrong with it?

>>71279865
i don't like it

>>71279871
:(

>>71279708
I guarantee you started listening to hip hop post 2010.

>beat wise it's horrible

bruh it has barry fucking bonds one of the best beats ever

>>71279853
that beat is iconic you fucking pleb

Graduation is the sound of success, a sound most mutants don't understand

>>71279853
I Wonder is one of best Kanye's beats, what are you smoking?

>>71280296
he needs daddy pitchfork to tell him what's good don't mind him

>>71280192
lol no but assumption are always nice :)
>>71280296
no i strongly disagree
but this is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjVGft5wqSc

It's far worse than his others
Feels like he didn't try as hard with it
Plus, I know it's just one track, but Drunk and Hot Girls drags the album down so much

CD = LR > Y > MBDTF > TLOP > 808 > G

>>71279583
I wouldn't say it's hated. It's good in its own right. There's just other albums that people like more.

>Homecoming
>I Wonder
>The Glory
Some great tracks. But Drunk and Hot Girls is horrific.

>>71280425
This meme is so versatile to the point where I'm beginning to think it's projection.

People saying mean words on the internet never was that big of a deal.

>>71280583
really bursted your bubble huh?

>>71279708
>"I shop so much, I can speak Italian"
Literally WHAT is wrong with this line?

It's no different than the ten million other "rich nigga" lines and there's even a bit of narcissistic humor in it which makes it tolerable.

>>71280783
>Kanye is known for being a goofy autismo
>says something goofy and charming
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WHY ISN'T EVERYONE MF DOOM REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Fuck that guy, Champion is a great song.

>>71280783
>>71280824
t. i just discovered hip hop post mbdtf

>>71280881
It was actually with Life After Death and Stankonia actually, nerd.
:^)

FIND YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE

AND I WONDER

DO YOU KNOW?

WHAT IT MEANS?

>>71279583
Has both his best song and his worst song.

And they're right next to eachother on the tracklist.

>>71281881
I'VE BEEN
WAITING
FOR
THIS
MY
WHOLE
LIFE

>>71281904
Hot and Drunk Girls and Flashing Lights?

>>71279583

it has the most bleeps

>>71282053
Aside from Stronger and a vocoder in Champion, not really.

>>71279675
leave that song alone. Better than Life's A Bitch

>>71279779
I get*

>>71282341
Fuck you mean? Fite me, nigga.

>>71282423
I fcuk mean that it's the WORST track on the entire album, I think.

>>71282455
Wrong opinion, nerd.

>there are """"people""" that actually think this

Anyways, Kanye is one of the GOAT closers. Last Call, Gone and Lost in the World (plus Who Will Survive) are the best

>>71279583

Because it's a mediocre album by a mediocre artist?

>>71282512
nice

>>71282341

>Life's A Bitch is the worst track on Illmatic

Get out this instant and never look back

>barry fucking bonds one of the best beats ever
Is this a real opinion? I love a lot of the production on this album but that song is terrible

>>71279583
i was listening to that album in the car wash when i was cleaning the interior of my car it was playing, and went to move the seat down, and my finger got caught im some shit in the seat and cut it bleeding a shit load i had to sit in the fucking washer part in my car with a bleeding finger with 'big brother" playing. fuck that album.

>>71279583
I don't
I just hate Kanye

>>71282148

I said it had more bleeps than the others, I didn't say it was all bleeps. learn2read.

>>71279853

this is one of kanye's best beats period...

>>71280583
How new are you. There were random blacks popping up on /b/ years ago.

Good Life is still Kanye's best song

prove me wrong
