That Kanye album.... Dear Lord will people ever open their eyes and get the **** over that bloated MESS of an album. Just because he goes on about how genius it is and acts the part of the tortured celebrity and puts in signifiers of 'genius' (e.g. unnecessarily long songs just because he thinks that's what 'artistic' and 'authentic') doesn't mean people actually have to fall for it. MESS.
I use The Blueprint, Back To Black and Mama's Gun profusely. The other 7 are varying degrees of awful.

Ch I did not even see that summary. 'Epic raps' - what is this even supposed to mean? 'Long instrumental variations' - proof that the critics were more obsessed with the style than the substance. 'Innovative' - No? Not at all. People need to stop throwing that word around.
