On this day 15 years ago, Kanye West Released 808’s and Heartbreak

[Yehuda]

Dope album and the last Kanye album I ever liked, definitely have it above My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and all that other bullshyt that came after it, always thought the polarization it caused was funny, don't really see any reason to hate on it but to each his own. I had "Welcome to Heartbreak" on repeat for the longest when I first heard it, my favorite track off this album, the introspection in the lyrics is beautiful.

At some point, we are going to have to wrestle with the idea that Kanye has/had one of the best runs ever

College Dropout
Late Registration
Graduation
808
MBDTF
WTT
Yeezus

I thought 808 was fine, but appreciate the impact it had more.

All classics yet vastly different, I think TLOP is a classic as well. Kanye might just have the GOAT rap discography

backstar and BOBS 2 of my favorite albums. I remember hearing the follow up n being so mad I think I frisbeed the CD. People on here make thread about revisiting the follow ups n I refuse. Not 2 mention ive seen a couple vlogs of Mos post n he look unstable on some borderline phgaggot shyt. I can't...

Mos Def released The Ecstatic in 2009, easily one of the greatest rap albums of the 2000s.

He looks the same as he always has - he has an Instagram.
