Review

The last great Kanye solo album.

In the middle of his MAGA era and on the verge of an anti-semitic outburst. This is Kanye teetering on completely losing it.

This album is great despite some non-sensical lyrics and lack of song structure on a few tracks. Kanye’s knack for sampling and producing shines through. He’s that good. Ghost town pt.2 is the perfect example. Muttered lyrics that he claims were recorded on the way to the listening party. But the epic production makes it sound like a masterpiece.

The lyrics are centered around mental illness, anxiety as a father and braggadocio. Kanye works in his classic ridiculous/funny bars.

This tight seven track album makes me wish more artists put out EP style bodies of work. Almost a decade after it’s release and unfortunately there’s not a sign he will return to greatness.
