    Soon, I wanna do it, but there is like 2 other ones going on at the same time. The forum has kind of exhausted them.

    When you're feeling a certain way, this album is the only thing you should be listening to.
    Not down, but just very reflective I guess.

    Great album, always in heavy play

    This album has probably aged the best out of all his albums. Could easily be released in today's hip-hop scene and be loved.

    Wasn't a huge fan when it came out but love it now.

    Classic.

    I've loved this album since the day it dropped it really is ahead of its time, if I didn't know any better I would have assumed it came out yesterday. Still can't figure out whats my favorite song on it.

    This album came out right around the time I was going through a nasty break up. The girl at the time told me she banged some dude and was pregnant, I played bad news 1000 times haha. Then as time went on and I was getting over it I would play street lights constantly. This is one of my favorite albums ever. Endless replay value.

    To me it's the complete opposite

    I've been staying away from Kanye for a long time, until now recently when I decided to check out his discog. College trilogy was honestly really underwhelming, but 808's is a masterpiece. It's unique, and thematically more focused than the College trilogy which is more like Kanye just ranting about what's going on in his life at the time.

    To everything from the development of the album concept to execution, 808's & Heartbreak is one of the few albums I've heard that exceeds its reputation. (I doubt MDTBF will, but I'm really looking forward to listening Yeezus)

    (Reason I stayed away from Kanye wasn't because of memes, it was because I really don't like his vocal technique. Overly nasal tenors just annoy me. It also doesn't help that I can't stand chipmunk beats.)
