― guess that bundt gettin eaten (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Saturday, Febru2:09 AM (19 minutes ago) Bookmark Flag Post You're saying you value Kanye b/c he's not, according to your definitions, very hip-hop. I can get behind Only One as track 10 on a 10 track album, but 4-5 secs is like the target bonus version track 11 that you have to click “Show” to see on wikipedia.Īgain I can appreciate the intention and that he has a child now, but I’m not going to start writing reports with pink and green pens when I have a kid, you know? I know what is needed. The new material is like some Mad Men Marigold / Paul Rudd Wanderlust type campfire shit. That 808 slapping the shit out of the song, while being innovative within the parameters. Don’t want lil wayne carrying around a guitar. With the clipse, I don’t want to hear about “spending time in your playcloths” or whatever that shit was. It just sits in iTunes as part of the canon. Let it be is fine, but I’m not listening to it, ever. Granted, those albums were recorded over only a few months, but that style consistently fits best with what I like about the beatles.

For me and the beatles, it was the rubber soul – magical mystery era. I think artists hit a lane that resonates with certain people in an optimal way. I’m going to make beatles analogies which are forgivable now that Kanye is putting him on the covers. I can appreciate the new material, but it is SO soft.

This is way more in line with what I was hoping for – a blend between yeezus sonics but more generally approachable/straightforward rap. The new singles reeeeeeally aren’t resonating with me. A part of me really agrees, and hates myself for agreeing:
