    Ive really been digging it recently. It clicks with me more than MBDTF did, I don't know how the f--- anybody could call this album trash. Hold My Liquor and Blood on the Leaves are two of Kanye's best songs of all time.
    Who else feels this way?

    Whether you hate it or love it want explanations

    My personal favorite is a tie between 808s and MBDTF, but I bump this and LR the most.

    Besides MBDTF, it's the only album I can get through in one sitting without getting bored. It's a great album, but I hardly find myself listening to the individual tracks besides HML,BOTL, New Slaves, and Guilt Trip

    I feel that, but I think that only adds to its favor ability, rather than detracts from it

    Yeezus was my favorite when it came out but I got more into softer stuff over the past few months so I've come to appreciate 808s over Yeezus

    I always look at Yeezus as a cleaner, better 808s, sonically at least. Same way with LR and CD

    Yeezus is definitely amazing. Not his best though. IMO Graduation and MBDFT and maybe TCD is better than Yeezus.

    It's literally a quick shot of adrenaline. Just a quick 40 minutes of exciting, pump up s---. You can sit down and listen to this album without taking up too much time or being bored by the end. Perfect album for what it is!
