can't really get into that Iggy album. it's ok but nothing really sticks out. catchy radio singles aside. i thought Fancy was some new Gwen Stefani song when i first heard it.

I love it hard. "Rolex" is amazing. You don't like that one? That said, right now my shit is Mastermind. I can't believe how solid that record is. Gonna take A$AP Mob or Kendrick to dethrone this year. And I used to think I wasn't a Ross fan. Ha!

Yeah, you've been saying this for a while. I guess it deserves another couple listens before I call it a day on that album. |

I feel the same way. I mean, it's really weird to sit back and reflect on how Kanye fits into the overarching "theme" of my top 10 artists list, which he broke into with a bullet in her first half of 2013. I've always been a pretty by the book post punker: SY, Fugazi, Unwound, Wire, Jackie-O Motherfucker, Mission of Burma, GY!BE, and so on. But Yeezy is without a doubt one of my favorite artists of all time at this point, and sometimes I feel like I'm breaking a rule of my own making. But fuck it. Lou Reed himself thought Yeezus was brilliant, and smart as hell. And he was right! Jello Biafra might not agree. The Melvins might not agree. But if it's Lou-certified brilliant, then I don't feel any need to justify Ye's place among the other 9 artists in my top ten. He's just that fucking good, that fucking weird, and that fucking iconoclastic. Plus he's opened me up to entire sub-realms of hip hop, and boosted my interest in electronic music, which is kicking ass and taking names this year like hip-hop did last year. Kanye West is making intentionally polarizing music, and using his public persona to fuck with the very industries he was once enchanted by (music and fashion). It's like he's daring people to write him off as a loudmouth narcissist with no talent, but nobody can do that. Even the suggestion of it is absurd. He forces people to who really want to hate him to dig through an uninterrupted run of 100% brilliant fucking albums to find their ammunition and their rationale for hating him so. But they can't find it, so they panic and make fun of his teeth, or his big personality, and they end up looking like goddamn goobers when the absolute guru of musical integrity praises his album for its brilliance. Anyway, I'm rambling. If I was a 17 year old again, strutting around in a Drive Like Jehu shirt and thinking myself to be the shit of all shits, I'd probably find a way to continue writing him off to protect my own vision of my cultural identity. But then I'd be a giant poser bitch, and I'd be super embarrassed about it later. It's the best album of 2013, and that's just how it is. |

I can't get behind Yeezus. The production is unique, but Kanye's lyricism feels stunted. I don't get it. Black Skinhead and New Slaves are cool enough but, like Death Grips, the whole album sounds sporadic and disjointed to me. I found 808s & Heartbreaks to be far more interesting and clever in its assembly, Yeezus just strikes me as a mess. Kanye generally isn't my cup of tea either way, so the album probably isn't for me to begin with.

I prefer Late Registration to MBDTF, but it's enjoyable. Not something I'd bump regularly. I don't really follow the dude too closely.
Heartbreaks is easily my favorite though. |

that Lou Reed review is just perfect and dead-on. if i can maintain goosbumps for almost half an album then its classic in my book. i think "Hold my Liquor" is one of the center pieces of the album. the way it falls apart in certain moments, the guitar squalls and that solo. the last three songs can kinda fuck off, but still, the first 7 songs are blissfull. Yeezus kills MBDTF and im not even a Kanye freak. |

i feel this way about someone like Lil Wayne. i've tried but just cant get into that dude. the last time i played Tha Carter 3 i was high and imagined some little horny gremlin man rapping over electronic carnival music. i consider him the Mick Jagger of rap. it also sounds dated for a 7 year old album. no offence to fans, mind. |

@ Dr. Eugene Felikson - Robb Banks' tape from last year "Tha City" seems right up your alley. there's a lot of SpaceGhostPurrp production on it.
