    I like it a little more than I initially did when it dropped but it's still very clearly his second worst album at best lol. I appreciate that it's a return to Kanye having an actual sonic/thematic direction, but most of the songs aren't good enough for me to care.

    I like Use This Gospel and Follow God. But I can't believe how bad he f----- up Selah and Everything We Need after hearing the Yandhi versions (Chakras and The Storm). Water is such a waste of production too.

    I don’t think he has to drop an MBDTF every time, but I definitely think he should put the same level of effort in every time. He threw ye together in like two weeks and it shows

    No, it’s 5/10 at best. And that’s coming from a stan who is partial. A) the only songs worth listening to are Selah, On God, Follow God, and Use This Gospel. All of which, are lesser than what they could’ve been had he put any real thought into the final version opposed to scrapping better versions for this bs religious stuff. B ) hearing the demos for Yandhi really hurt this album because there was a great framework for a return to form in those

    overhated album, like ppl arent satisfied unless he gives us a mbdtf EVERY time? was a great display of his current mental state and a look into how he was thinking

    as much as he wants to think he can pull off a 7 track album tho, he cant
