    It's winter (well almost) here and I decided to give it a spin.

    I honestly can't say this is any less than perfection. Especially for this season. Okay okay okay

    I always had MBDTF as my favorite Kanye album but it does have flaws for me. Maybe I'd still pick that but honestly 808 >>>

    Would pick both over Yeezus easily though.

    I liked Robocop but I didn't like it as much as I liked the rest of the songs on 808s. Lol I was actually telling my friend the other day that I felt 808's was better than MBDTF and he looked at me crazy.

    Remove the machine sounds from robocop and the album is perfect front to back.

    yeah, I always liked Paranoid and Robocop a little less than the rest. Still 10/10 songs, still Kanye's magnum opus, absolutely no filler.
