    I just don't get how y'all even got past the auto tune. I was vibing to the song for a minute before the s--- just became too much to bear. It's sonically lackluster. If any other artist tried that s--- people wouldn't even be able to see the message through the musicality, but everyone's familiar with Ye's story so I guess it's resonating.

    The message is nice and heartfelt!! For that, I appreicate Ye, BUT the auto tune destroys it for me! Just cause it's Ye, it's considered a MASTERPIECE. Nighas on this thread can miss me with that.

    I'll listen to the song next time I light one. It'll probably be beautiful & get me in my feelings then.

    I feel yall not liking the auto tune. This s--- prolly woulda been even better if he sang it normally but nonetheless the concept of this song is amazing.

    autotune is there to help the voice, idk how you dislike this but love hearing cole screech on half of forest hills drive.

    Auto tune used to that extent is extremely cringeworthy for me personally. I'd rather a rapper give me struggle vocals. Cole's singing voice honestly sounds better than this robotic mess. Ye knows how to properly use auto tune to, so idk why he overdid it on this record.. Probably a cop out to make it seem more artistic than it is rather than just put out a genuine piece of art.

    Hey Mama is miles ahead of this, one of my top 3 Ye records.

    It is, but a great concept executed poorly remains nothing more than a great concept.

    Kanye's one of my all time favorites, but I've been disappointed with him since Yeezus excluding Black Skinhead. I want him to get it together.

    When did I ever say I loved cole singing?? The only person I tolerate singing in hip hop is drizzy because that's who he is. I do love the intro on fhd because that song is poignant & downright good. I love fhd, the album as a whole, because it's great music.

    I hate to bring cole in this but when he raps about something deep and let's just say the production is terrible, nighas like you trash him. BUT when Ye do it, it's a masterpiece. Foh with that.

    I don't know if I can't feel the new Kanye record because I was expecting something different coming out the gate or if the record just isn't resonating with me. Either way, I enjoy the concept of the song.

    I know Kanye does get that extra love because he's Kanye but the record is dope to me. If I'm being honest tho Lauryn Hill's To Zion completely blows this one outta the water.
