One year ago today, Kanye dropped a classic...

[grittyman20]

Perfecto. From the production, to the lyrics, to the guest features...
Only flaw was leaking out some of the tracks on G.O.O.D Fridays but still...

I don't think its a classic, but its a damn good album with great production.

I enjoy(ed) it...but I don't ever have a desire to listen to it.

Mainly because there's only like one song that's actually "about" something. And he doesn't rap well enough to rap about nothing. It sounds really good. There's just no take away for me.

 

[Jordan8]

Classical

 

[stevesofresh]

Yes he did thanks YE

 

[jetpacunlimited]

Only CLASSIC Kanye ever dropped war College Dropout.. This album is far from that.. 
Cartune go view The Band Geakz thread I made sir

 

[lbj23navo]

Only problem I had with this album was that he leaked damn near half the album with GOOD fridays.. If it wasn't for that I probably would've appreciated it more. 
Still a great album, production on this was 

 

[lukethejediknight]

My 3rd favorite album from him.

Classic? I'd rather wait a bit to see how it influences the game (like CD did). But it definitely could do that.

 

[welcometothetonezone]

My favorite Kanye album and it's a classic for sure...yeah I said it. Come at me brethren

 

[awwsome]

"I love it though, you know?"

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

Yeah.. it was that damn good!!

 

[thegoat121886]

no he didn't

 

[grittyman20]

I can't really get into the music debating thing anymore, but I think when it's all said and done this album will be remembered as Kanye's best work.

CD is cool, but that whole broke college theme played out with me a long time ago...I hardly ever play that album now.

Pretty much how I feel about it.
Late Registration remains, in my opinion, his best work. It represents his peak lyrically, topically, and musically.

 

[vezon]

Man... Music forum is such trash.. What Classic? This joint was average at best.

 

[Peep Game]

"The Joy" is better than every one of those songs on MBDTF.

Statements like this let me FURTHER know why some don't like MBDTF. People fell in love with what Ye did to hip hop on CD and cling to that like a security blanket. There isn't one song on MBDTF worse than The Joy.
  

 

[b smooth 202]

what Ye album hasnt went plat?

 

[sooperhooper]

very good album, but not a classic in my book. Definitely his best work since his best work (CD).

 

[k3stacks]
