    No surprise really. He probably had a well written album ready but had to halfass this to meet the deadline when he decided to make a whole new album -.-

    I'm listening to die lit right now and people expect carti to say literally NOTHING and he still raps with more precision and thought than someone who was supposed to address Jordan Peterson videos, MAGA hats, and saying slavery was a choice lol

    I wish the spoken word part at the beginning of the 1st track was cut, seems that's a theme with this album (wanting to cut tracks..) the 2nd part of Ghost Town with those vocals is a real MOMENT, sounds so good, but the overall track.. not so much. Whole album is a mess, has to be his worst project, the only solid tracks are Yikes & All Mine is pretty left field.

    b--- average album...expected so much better from 7 songs.

    Best thing about the album (aside from the GOAT artwork) is that it is new music made this year, not 3 years ago like most artists..

    I mean it's in line with that "FREE THINKING" s--- which was why I referenced him. Which is ironic because JBP prays on people feeling lost and tells them to think freely while simultaneously telling them what to think and indoctrinating them with his pseudo-intellectual/philosophical/alt right flirting BS that doesn't really make sense but seems smart to people trying to find meaning because he uses big words and concepts.

    hm.... I haven't heard that much of him but I thought he was pretty interesting to listen to when I did. I def don't see how he's alt right either. He seems pretty neutral from what I've heard. Also seems pretty intellectual and has some interesting ideas. Some of it is kinda weird from memory but yeah. What did Kanye say about him?

    The guy is intelligent, its undeniable, phd and harvard professor. There are areas where he talks out of his a--- but there are also areas where he has very solid commentary and insight. I mean youre gonna get caught saying something stupid when there is over 600 hours of you speaking on the internet. I dont understand the "flirting with the alt right" criticism, that sounds like something you picked up off a hitpiece article. Like im pretty sure that was written word for word in many headlines.

    Most of his message is the most harmless s--- in the world, and the only place where it isn't is when he speaks out against marxism/identity politics and even then I think its no more dangerous than what you see in these so called news articles on similar subjects.

    His audience is much wider than those losers who worship him on the internet. I had a friend who went to one of the presentations he had at campus and he said the crowd was a normally diverse one, which if you ever watch videos of them youll see that it is not just a bunch of lonely white males. Thats the narrative some of the media is trying to force feed people.

    I think he can be cringe at times, it really just depends on the topic. Whenever he talks about that "lost young male" s--- its bad. But the stuff that he actually went to school for, psychology, is interesting. I mean he makes r-----s drool but I can appreciate the dudes robust way of speaking, its impressive but also try-hard. I dont know a ton about him, i find the whole lefist circle of hate around him more interesting than himself.

    With any extreme ideology, usually how people get indoctrinated is that they buy into one small idea, and then once they believe that small idea they're more prone to believe a slightly bigger one, then a slightly bigger one than that and so on and so forth. And that's basically how I feel about JBP is that he's a primer for much worse ideologies. I have no doubt he's smart in certain respects and I admittedly haven't read a lot of his stuff (because what I read gave me no reason to want to do so lol) but it seemed like a bunch of jumbled horse s--- to me.

    serious question: if you took the worst seven songs from each of kanye's seven previous albums, would any of those batches not be better than ye?
