    MBDTF is his most lavishly produced album, has a lot of good features, bangers, and some of Kanye's better bars. It checks all of the boxes that a rap album should.

    But subjectively, I listen to some of his other projects more often. Sonically, I prefer the more experimental production on TLOP and Graduation. And in lyrical content, I prefer College Dropout.

    Also, the last 1/3 of the album falls off hard. h--- of a Life, Blame Game, Lost in the World. His lyrics and flows in these songs aren't nearly as good as the ones on the previous tracks. Also, the obnoxious Chris Rock skit, and the unnecessary outro.

    It's one of his best projects sonically and easily his worst lyrically.

    Usually, I don't care much about lyrics if the songs themselves are good. Look at Nirvana; half of their lyrics are gibberish and they make excellent songs. And there are songs in foreign languages, which I don't know what the lyrics mean, but the song still sounds good. But Kanye's lyrics on this are so bad that they take me away from the music and make my mind pay attention to how bad the lyrics are.

    This album could've been his best if he spent more than a few days writing and recording the songs. But as is, IMO, it's a good album.

    I think his best is Yeezus but I'm not mad at MBDTF being considered his best either. Both all-timers.

    Wtf

    Why Graduation so low?

    I never understood the hate for that album.

    For me it's MBDTF and Graduation as #2.
