It costed 7 dollars, it was too much, but Daft Punk's name was on it, so I bought it. I took it home, I put it on, it was the worst track I've ever heard in my life. "They're not even trying!", "They're just playing randomly!"
And then I thought "Well, Kanye West and Daft Punk produced it, maybe if I give it another play..." So I played it again, and I thought "It sounds horrible, but they mean it to sound this way.
And in about the third or fourth time, it started to grow on me, and in the fifth or sixth time, I loved it, and in the seventh or eighth time, I thought it was the greatest Kanye West album ever made, and I still do.

The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as “the greatest or most significant or most influential” rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

Graduation is his best album

I think it's a great and memorable album, and I'm glad that a super-mainstream artist was able to experiment a little and it received wildly positive feedback. It could have done more in terms of experimenting, but who cares really. It's a mildly experimental album and I commend it as such.

This.
DG did it better and Kanye probably WAS influenced by them

arca
evian christ
all had releases prior to it that sounded closer to yeezus than anything dg.
stay ignorant dumbass

Yeah normally I hate every pop star and especially Kanye, but I like Yeezus. The fact that most people on places like /r/hiphopheads still dislike it is proof it was a challenging album.

lmao if you think yeezus sounds like death grips, you haven't listened to either with much attention. the literal only thing they have in common is black men yelling.
Yeezus is more inspired by drill and the things that Arca was doing at that time and the Travis Scott stuff that would become Rodeo.
