    What do you think of Mike Dean's extended version of When I See It??

    All I can here is Devil in a New Dress.

    I heard the similarity too but for some reason i liked it better (including the solo). It doesn't have Ross and his husky-bars for one [​IMG]

    All the ones who are saying "yeezus is" are just consolidating (if that's a word) it's place as most underrated Kanye album.

    And mbdtf is awesome because of all the tracks that, when you hear them for the first time, think "ow, this s--- is really great!"

    Power, dark fantasy, runaway, devil in a new dress, blame game, lost in the world, gorgeous.

    You don't have that much impressive tracks on any other album.

    Compare it to Yeezus it's clean to my ears.

    And I dunno about you but I can clearly hear the instruments/lyrics on AOTL.

    I was talking about the album as a whole so my bad. AOTL isn't self-reflective for Kanye at all. With this song he's telling us a story instead.

    Is your gripe with AOTL more so about it's maximalistic instruments or lyrics or both?

    Why do you like Yeezus then? :khaled:
    That's really pretentious mate. :wth:

    I'm not a noted fan of Ross but I really think his verse on DIAND is great. His deliverance/lyrics was basically braggadocios, yes, but it was great.

    MBDTF is a really good album. Maybe a lil overrated but still very good. As for 808s & Heartbreaks and Yeezus, they are the most overrated kanye albums ever. Kanye is a very overrated rapper too. But not My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

    You're wrong. Yeezus is his most hated and 808s is a legendary album no matter how you look at it.

    MBDTF definitely overrated :wow2:

    808s is very s--- album no matter how you look at it.
    Yeezus is praised usually here so I guess I can say overrated in before everybody came to their senses and realized how much it s----d. They say something about fashion which is actually true for music too. Different or unique doesn't mean good...

    I'm always right. d---! I already said Kanye fans are ignorant as f--- and they have no clue about music tastes can be pretty much different and Music is subjective. I'm leaving. Thanks for not proving me wrong.

    he's explicitly said this in interviews. not exactly insightful.

    judging art by its creator's motivations is a fool's errand.

    I ain't judging s--- by other's standard. It's all MY standard.. and i simply dislike the praise MBDTF gets for not outshining his other records.

    well your reasoning makes no sense. whether it was motivated by the need to be liked again or not, it's structurally innovative and starkly personal in a way that's less focused than 808s but just as naked.
