You split it off at the perfect point, I truly believe the album is a two act structure from beginning to Heaven And Hell and then Donda to No Child is the second half. It’s a really cool arc

[@ltucker8]

Thats how i like to think of it too

@@ltucker8 it’s really where the songs start to switch from a darker sound to a lighter sound

[@gotworc]

@@coastercraziness I think heaven and hell was specifically but at middle of the album for that reason. the first half is hell and the second is heaven

I found that the first 8 tracks grabbed me much more right out of the gate, whereas the rest in this first half grew on me soooooo much. I initially had the same opinion as you but now i found myself replaying all of them all the time. Remote control is super catchy despite being totally all over the place, 24 is incredible to me because i for one actually love gospel music and that one has such a unique dark inflection added to that sound, moon is TRANSCENDENT and top 5 from the album for me, heaven and hell is fuckin unreal too and admittedly junya is still kinda 6/10 for me

[@RyanM0224]

So happy you actually pulled the lyrics up and went through them after some tracks. Felt like no one else was listening to that Durk verse - that was deep

[@nrgao]

I know people are saying that theory about the Donda chant and heartbeats but the 911 call of her death and the real story of what happened to her are very much public, and not only was she not hooked up to medical equipment to have a recorded heartrate, she was found without a pulse before the call was made.

[@ronaldherrin6470]

i’m not sure if you know the full backstory, but Kanye went through a LOT of fan feedback between the 2nd and 3rd listening parties (mike dean was showing ye messages in the r/dondasplace discord). One thing that happened was videogamedunky’s video jokes about ye sampling the globgolab, and kanye actually did it. even better, It’s the grandayy gucci gang version (you can hear the 808s and it’s at a faster pace than the original but perfectly fits the grandayy meme). undisputed GOAT

[@connorsimon9300]

I honestly think Kanye wanted clean features so he didn’t have the parental advisory blocking the album art, I feel like he would’ve told them to not curse if they’re gonna be on his album

[@zackmackin1131]

most of them still swear in the songs, including kanye. they just cut out all the curse words because since kanye became a christian, he didnt want any of that to be included in his songs

[@ghostintheInternet.mp4]

Even if he kept the cursing I don’t think it would’ve had that parental advisory sign. If you look at his albums after MBDTF on any streaming platform the explicit versions don’t have that on the cover. I’m not sure what it is, but it looks like he doesn’t have to include it anymore. I’ve been meaning to look into why that is.

[@zackmackin1131]

@@ghostintheInternet.mp4 it doesnt and never has been manditory to use the parental advisory logo on your album if it contains explicit content

[@eminemfan50098]

@@zackmackin1131 yep it was always optional.

[@prodfife]

to be fair kanye has always credited his writers, so theyre technically not ghostwriters

[@jobsmine]

The album is a different themed project than his previous works. It’s beautiful stripped, sonically deconstructed and filled with eerie notes. The problem is that some guys were expecting a rap classic but it’s not. That’s why only true artists can relate to it. But people will only appreciate it years later just like 808 & Yeezus.

[@juju-vl7oj]

I'm ok with the possibility that alot of the lines aren't from Kanye's mind but I've always wondered what exactly he's writing and producing and what is his collaborators. He's a phenomenal artist either way, even if everything on an album was written and produced by someone else , Kanye would make it his own. It's akin to what a great director does in movies. A great director could have a movie that they don't write and they are never seen in the film, yet the personality of the film is very distinguishable as that director's voice.

[@FolhetoGrena]
