    Nothing out there sounds like Donda-this is noteworthy in an era where so much of music sounds the same, and T-Pain’s rant gets eve Dr. Dre to co-sign that assessment. Creatively, it’s off the charts. It’s incredible to make a “Christian” album, not have it sound corny (or preachy), and make people (who don’t even like that kinda music) like it-while comparing it to other rap albums!
    Maybe it’s just me, but that’s amazing. Take any mainstream artist today and tell them to make an album that performs this well-and then take away the subject matter they intentionally put in the music to make it sell (sex, drugs, violence, trappin’, gang sh*t, whatever).
    Kanye DID that.

      This is not a christian album. His last album was. He has people on this albulm talk about sex, drugs, violence , trapping and gang stuff also even though he didnt do it himself. The purpose of this album was not to glorify Adoni.

      kanye's is a artists artist peers look up to him every album he switches his sound takes risks challenges himself and his audience you can love it or hate it but I'm going to create! that's brave to do even when you have a winning formula..808s basically birthed a drake etc I remember kanye was hated on for that album..years later it wins one of the the most influential albums award. If drake wants to be a all time great artist and not just a rapper he would take some risks be creative be bold be real.

You can say it's interesting and creative but this is not entertainment or music you vibe too. It's over thought and self involved. This is an album that should not of seen the light of day. Basically Kanye masterbating to a bassline.

    I found this album to be creative, meticulously crafted and the production and content are just brilliant. Kanye invests his new self in his albums. He just transformed genres like gospel hip-pop to a new level. You can clearly see he put an effort in the album, something I didn’t see in drake's CLB.

In a world of numbing superficiality leaning on God as a source of inspiration and power is refreshing. Believe what you want but I choose to believe and it has served me well and stabilized my mind and spirit.

    • @TheBaconBasket1
      @TheBaconBasket1 3 роки тому +7

      That's because Kendrick and Kanye spend some real money on producers and outside influences for their music. If you look at the credits for TPAB you see current day jazz/R&B giants like Terrace Martin, Robert Glasper, Kamasi Washington, Thundercat, etc. Drake does everything mostly in house with 40 and a couple other guys. They do a pretty good job at OVO, but you're never gonna get that variety.

    Can we talk about the Yeezus hate all these years later?..I thought people’s opinion finally changed around that album. I didn’t fw it at the time but I’ve been playing it a lot lately since Donda dropped and realising how much I love it (I used to find the song title I am a God offensive without even listening properly to it, now it’s my fav song on the album). I was such a sheep back in 2013 for saying it was trash. It’s not trash, it’s experimental and that album put experimental hip hop front and Centre like few rappers have ever done. I realised I enjoy Kanye more when he’s being experimental than when he’s making commercial radio hits. When he said his fav albums are 808s and Grad - those are essentially pop albums now. Grad is full of radio hits and 808s has the sounds that became pop/r&b years later.

      @@simunyemdunge999 I just listened to it entirely today and was thinking “why did I hate this? I actually like this” but I get that it’s not everybody’s cup of tea. I often find the people who love yeezus aren’t the biggest fans of mainstream commercial hip hop to begin with, the type of people you’re more likely to find listening to Death Grips and underground alternative rap acts rather than the Migos. I respect any mainstream rapper shining a spotlight on experimental/industrial hip hop at the expense of losing their own commercial fanbase.

      @@nameisamine My perception of Yeezus is it gave rise to the bandwagnist community of Hip Hop like HHT. Where most claimed Yeezus grew on them in order to be accepted as part of the cool table. Most vocal Yeezus stans are people that weren't even paying attention to Ye's previous work but they walking around thinking there are the miracle whip. That sector of HHT keeps ruining my takes on Yeezus. Even with Donda they just throw art next to it without any explaining as to why. New age Kanye fans are just like Nicki/Cardi/Meg stans to me. Anyrthing is a classic.

      @@simunyemdunge999 . The album seems deeply autobiographical to me, so reckless unapologetic and angry, when I figured out why he was so angry at the time it helped me digest the album better, and knowing now after those years being in Paris and the frustrations he was facing, not being taken seriously, going into millions of dollars of debt trying to launch his brand, knowing that he came through the other side and built a billion dollar company?… It makes the album part of a bigger story in his soap opera I guess. If it was just music and I listened without context I don’t think I would be as interested tbh. All the obstacles he’s facing seem to come out through the music. Although it can be uncomfortable to listen to those screams on ‘I am a God’ that’s how he was feeling at the time. It’s kinda a time capsule showing a pretty broken man who is feeling so confident yet so diminished by others at the same time. Idk this album just fascinates me. It’s more a fascinating for me than ‘enjoyment’ there’s definitely other albums I enjoy more.
