Knew the tide would eventually turn around on this album just thought it wouldn't happen until someone else took the style like Drizzy did with SFG.

Album is great but still his weakest rap album, it's so weird but still so well made.
The "punk rock" I don't give a fukk about how I sound type of raps are so average/weird that they make them dope cause they work perfectly with the production.
Specially on I am a god, Black skinheads, bound 2 and On Sight.

shyt is so hectic and the he lets the shyt breathe with Bound 2, fukking genius.

World wide wes is a duke at CAA, one of the most powerful dukes in the league and he's straight from the wildest hoods :ahh:.

I think you mean dance hall and industrial not punk rock. It's definitely a better album than MBDTF or Graduation, both of which were overproduced. Kanye has never been a great rapper though and the first rapper to co-opt this kind of production with the right voice or lyrical ability is going to be rich.

Classic Album and Thread brehs.....I felt the same way about Hold My Liquor at first. But then After listening to the album for weeks I realized something. Now this is my own analysis and opinion of the album...But Hold my Liquor is the glue that holds the whole shyt together. To me it signals the transition in the feel of the album as a whole. Every song at the beginning is harsh and abrasive and not really about nothing except Yeezus being Yeezus and stuntin on you nikkas. The beginning is shocking and even offensive to most. From On Sight til New Slaves that shyt has you on some fukk ERRRBODY shyt.

Then there is a break after that sad ass singin on New Slaves...and its like nikkas is waking up out of a pro black Gawd like state...and back to the real world. Where the only shyt nikkas got control over is booze and bytches and bread. So therefore that's what the rest of the album is about, and its sort of depressing to me how the album's intense feel drops off. And just when you feel exhausted after Guilt Trip....and are ready to be done with shyt. Send it up Comes blaring in with some loud ass Horns...like....WAKE UP nikka, And the cycle prepares to start again, while you gettin lifted in the club. Then out of no where there's some divine intervention and BOUND 2, the shyt we've been waiting all album to hear raps it up. Bringing back that soul feeling. And the lyrics match the feeling of finding that one bytch up in the club that can get you off ya "I AM A GAWD fukk YOU nikkaS" Feeling and calm ya ass down..hoping you can get in them draws. :shaq:


Like I said...Just my thoughts and my own review of the shyt. If my coli nikkas actually read this i'll feel :blessed:


if not..well :yeshrug:

No i mean Punk Rock, production wise I'd say Dance Hall and industrial rock. But I'm talking about the "fukk, I need to put some bars on this great music, fukk it this will do" Which actually was the case with the album. Kanye's greatness as an MC is that he takes his time to deliver deep, meaningful, real, introspective bars.. This album he went in the booth like he was Jay-z and tried to flex bars just before the deadline.
