    The person who wrote the pitchfork article was the same person who wrote this

    Very strange because All Day, Only One, and the original Wolves are better than many songs that made it onto Pablo

    P4k review is pretty good overall, I mostly agree with it...I think you can make a case for a lower score though, although I personally won't settle on one yet as I'm only on my third listen

    Just from my 5 6 spins I gave it and listening to it in the structure @Mike Tyson said to the album really isn't a mess. It's a life in the day of Kanye and how he embraces fame/marriage/and all the bs that comes and has come with his stardom. I don't think by any means it's his greatest album i thinks it's a well worth edition to his near flawless discography (which is still one of the best ever regardless of how you feel about this tape). If I were him I would have made it a "double disc" and I mean by that after wolves I would have grouped all the other tracks under the title The Swish Ep or the Waves Ep. If I had to put a number on it my way to early to rate the album would be a 7.5. It's only gotten better with more listens. I don't skip any track with the exception of freestyle 4. 7/7 1 more than Jordan...

    I didn't mind it at first but it gets worse every time I hear it. Hopefully he cuts it and moves Frank's outro to open the song (even though I love the way it closes the album).

    give me a break

    there's not a single good line in the verse, let alone an "essential" one
