Before, every time i heard about kanye, it was just negative stuff, so i never really paid much attention to his music. Then i went through some hardships and gave a listen to 808 and heartbreaks.

I don’t think anything besides to pimp a butterfly will come close to executing that high level high art of an album Kanye has created. Hip hop was originally the voice for the inner city that became pioneers and trailblazers. The George Condo art Kanye made is a masterpiece of a statement that hip hop can be luxurious. That’s why this album will be top 10 in music history. And it’s incredible that Kanye has done it.

My first real experience with Kanye was listening to Yeezus for the first time. Aside from all the usual radio singles, I’d actually never heard any of his music.

This is my favorite album, I love it since the release, it blowed my mind. MBDTF changed the whole rap game, this album broke the usual structure of a rap song and put a cinematic vision in it on a new whole level. It's a timeless album, you can hear now and think that could be release today. Kanye West has the best discography of rap, he can't be only compared to other rappers, Kanye reached the levels of Beatles, Michael Jackson, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, David Bowie and Led Zeppelin

And then last month while listening to The Life of Pablo driving my family across province I was struck with a revelation. “This is the best album I’ve ever heard!” It was a clear, definitive, and true thought. And I hold it still. I’m sure it’ll hold it for a long time.

There is no peak to this album because it starts at Dark Fantasy and ends with Who Will Survive In Americs Also, Lost In The World is, in my opinion, the greatest song of all time. Its an amazing love song, but it also fits perfectly into the album. It deals with love, but it also deals with the problems of fame and materialism.
