    Released November 24th, 2008 following a string of unfortunate events.

    I'll be honest, this is my least favorite Kanye album, though there's some undeniable gems on this project.

    Anyone have any special memories with this album? What are your thoughts on it? Does it still hold up today? What is your favorite track?

    This album came out right around the time I was going through a nasty break up. The girl at the time told me she banged some dude and was pregnant, I played bad news 1000 times haha. Then as time went on and I was getting over it I would play street lights constantly. This is one of my favorite albums ever. Endless replay value.

    This album has probably aged the best out of all his albums. Could easily be released in today's hip-hop scene and be loved.

    Wasn't a huge fan when it came out but love it now.

    Classic.

    This album aged so well. Street Lights is arguably a 10/10 and Top 20 if not Top 10 Kanye song. Album is very well polished very few blemishes and will most likely get even better.

    I thought it was wack af at first, but it hella grew on me. I love it from start to finish now (well...except that robocop track), and i definitely think it still holds up today, look at anything else that dropped in 2008, most of it's dated af now, 808's still sounds modern.

    When you're feeling a certain way, this album is the only thing you should be listening to.
    Not down, but just very reflective I guess.

    Great album, always in heavy play
