    it doesn'T matter, all of ye's albums are good why compare any?

    Just kidding.

    I don't think any of his future albums can top MBDTF (btw I also think SWISH will be his last one) because of what happened way before, before, and after its release.

    What happened way before:
    • 808s and Heartbreak releases to the surprise of everyone. The main consensus was that we all expected the finale of the College series and we got an album that is very much not that.
    • 808s is praised by critics, but the fans start a civil war that's much like the war when Yeezus came out.
    What happened before:
    • Tay-Swift incident.
    • Kanye is put on blast by everyone, Barry Obombz included.
    • Lady Gaga (the biggest pop star of that time) drops him from her tour.
    • Kanye exiles himself to Hawaii.
    In November 22nd, 2010, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy drops.

    What happened after:
    • Motherfuckin' praised by everyone -- critics and fans alike.
    • MBDTF was nothing like we've ever heard before, as it took every milestone in the evolution of Kanye's sound and Voltron'd it into one album.
    • Shaped the sound of hip hop from years on out (although I would still say that 808s remains the most innovative).

    Not really. It's a great song but it's not MBDTF quality, and it's not a Swish track anyway

    Very unlikely

    But mainly because how perfect MBDTF was
