    (trigger warning: possible stanning ahead)
    the point of this rollout is to watch an artist in his prime make multiple sonic paintings and just to shut up and enjoy what you enjoy

    u know?

    and yes, kanye's in his prime. his last 3 projects were 808s MBDTF and Yeezus. come on.

    i think why people are mad (and i completely feel for them) is because this goes against every sane convention in the book when it comes to an album. i just talked with my roommate (who hasnt even heard it yet) and he said "theres one thing thats stood the test of time in music and its cutting an album, a final product, and giving it as a gift to your fans. sharing that moment" and it made me realize kanye is doing literally the complete opposite.

    but its something immeasurably more personal and intimate, and we're all kind of ignoring that.

    yes i want a final product to chronicle and place in rankings and blah blah blah. but for now, im fascinated by this rollout and im truly enjoying every minute of it and hope it isnt over

    if it was over, itd be kind of a letdown. it would seem half assed to me tbh. go the entire way. release a different version of these tracks if you want. or new tracks entirely

    idk man

    like, if any artist tries to replicate this rollout in the future -- ill probably hate it

    if kanye does it again, ill hate it.

    I really feel its more because of a lack of confidence on Kanyes part than anything else

    Couldn't disagree more

    How is this rollout "fascinating"?
    Why don't you want it to be over?

    You're trying to make this a good thing when its just not

    Watching people spin this mediocrity into a positive is the fascinating part. Reading the glowing reviews and crazy theories makes my eyes roll into the back of my head.
