Kanye’s been on such lyrical autopilot ever since Pablo. Even when Yeezus was insane it was generally interesting. All he ever seems to talk about now is his dick and haters.
Such a shame - I was listening to that interview he gave for Late Registration when it came out (as part of a podcast about Frank Ocean) where he derailed it to talk about homophobia in hip hop (before any names of his size were doing that) and I thought, fuck, I used to love this guy.

Big news for everyone: gone back to yeezus. This was released at the peak of my obsession with him when i was freshly 17 so has some memories with it. But damn is it unforgivably clipped to shit. ‘i am a god’ is completely fucking washed out to the point where it sounds like nothing is happening at all with it.
Would definitely stick this on over MBDTF any day though. Blood on the leaves is fucking great

Now I know the context of the new song (it was released for the PornHub awards?) I understand why it’s oso trashy and lazy and is clearly has its tongue firmly in cheek. But it’s still a bit shit
God damn it Spike Jonze, get on with doing a new film, not being Executive Producer on this nonsense!

I said this at the time - the mix is so bad. All this nonsense about it sounding raw when its basically just unfinished. Audible clipping all over the shop.
Hot take: all the Kanye albums since 808s sound like shit. Obviously, particularly Yeezus and Ye, but even MBDTF succeeds in spite of the mixing. Weird, because his first four albums all sound great

Preach! Like Gorgeous on MBDTF - should be a great tune but vocals sound like they were recorded in a bin.
MBDTF spends most of its run time clipping and its still great. Imagine if it had been mastered properly!

MBDTF coulda done with 3 mins clipping off the end of every track amirite?

Hopefully he’ll be performing Lift Yourself
3 albums on the cards now. Yandhi, Good Ass Job and WTF2.
Watch the Frone
WTT 2 is just bollocks I reckon. The Chance album is more likely.
Yandhi actually has an SNL performance (Ye’s typical way of annoucning a record), cover art and release date attached to it… Soooo… whatever it is, it might be coming?
Really hope he releases this as a MiniDisc exclusive

A little further investigating suggests “Yandhi” will probably be the subject of an SNL parody skit rather than a new album
