    Yeah you've read right. Favorite song of all genres. And objectively speaking it's not even the best Kanye song. I never get tired of this song no matter how often I play it. Cudis chorus and Kanye's "AND I CAN'T STOP." at the end is so f---ing beautiful. Even beats Runaway for me and I know I'm practising heresy when saying this

    808s & Heartbreak is my fav album oat, everytime any track from it comes on shuffle I just go back and listen to the entire thing start to finish multiple times like it just dropped.

    Facts. Even though MBDTF is the better album in my opinion, 808s and Heartbreak still is my personal favorite. Whole album is beautiful from start to finish

    Exactly even with The Eminem show that is 2nd on my list when I listen to the entire project I might skip one song or two, but I don't do that with 808s.

    And also that VH1 Storytellers with Kanye is amazing, don't know if you saw it.

    only somewhat related but jeezy's "standing at my podium/I'm tryina watch my sodium" is the best line of all time

    Kanye’s run from 808s-Yeezus will never be topped to me as far as three album stretches go.

    Here’s the OG with synths instead of the keys

    Cudi definitely helped Kanye write quite a few of the 808's songs.

    Such a great album. Production is incredible.

    For years I thought that this was the only version of this song. My mind was completely blown when I heard the updated version.
