By the time it feels like you're getting to the heart of it, this album's already over.

That might be more a blessing than a curse since I feel Kanye's albums feel bloated from all the singing/groanin/talking bridges/hooks etc. that he adds to his songs.

Production is cool. Felt somewhere between Pablo and Daytona, but more Pablo than Daytona.

Lyrically, it's what you'd expect from a Kanye album, although because it's shorter his more introverted lyrics stand out more so its seems better...

I do like him talking about his fear of comeuppance in the form of possible daughter drama in the future, but I still felt like it was essentially his version of Nas' Daughters, even though it sounds different (and Nas' version is better imo)

The spoken word in the beginning didn't really do it at all for me. I get it, but nah...

I'll give it a few more spins but this won't stay in rotation more than a week or two.

Album is straight.

Better than what most rappers release these days. Needed more songs though.

7 isnt enough, GOOD Music needs to stop with that dumbness.

The 7 track thing actually works though. Lets be real, if this shyt was full length, it wouldn't get any type of replay value:scust:. Sometimes less is more.

Fair enough. Some dudes actually thinking this shyt is the second coming:mjlol:, like it's a good album but it's really not fukking with Late Registration by any means. I would say this shyt is like 3.5/5 tops going to a 4/5. That Wouldn't Leave track could have been better:francis:
