Random thoughts:
-Godamn this shit is only 10 fucking songs (2 are interludes)
-I don't like the way the chorus comes in first before he starts rapping on "Dark Fantasy", Imma have to edit that shit
-Nothing really sounds all that different except Runaway has the guitar solo at the end (which now makes it 9 min long!)
-Also Ross is on Devil in a New Dress
-Too many godamn features...I wanna hear my man Kanye rapping
-He kills the second verse of Gorgeous
Is hip hop, just a euphemism for a new religion
the soul music for the slaves that the youth is missing
this is more than just my road to redemption
Malcolm West had the whole nation standing at attention
as long as I’m in Polo’s they think they got me
but they would try to crack me if they ever see a black me
-I hate Raekwon, he ruins Gorgeous
-Where's my damn skits ma'fucka!?

When Kanye West sings about "jerk-offs that’ll never take work off," you’d best believe he means himself. Being crazy is this guy’s job, and judging from the sound of his music, business is booming. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is his most maniacally inspired music yet, coasting on heroic levels of dementia, pimping on top of Mount Olympus. Yeezy goes for the grandeur of stadium rock, the all-devouring sonics of hip-hop, the erotic gloss of disco, and he goes for all of it, all the time. Nobody halfway sane could have made this album.
Last time, Kanye went minimal for the electro melancholia of 808s & Heartbreak. But on Fantasy, he gets ridiculously maximal, blowing past all the rules of hip-hop and pop, even though, for the past half-decade, he’s been the one inventing the rules. There are hip-hop epics, R&B ballads, alien electronics, prog-rock samples, surprise guests from Bon Iver to Fergie to Chris Rock, even a freaking Elton John piano solo. It’s his best album, but it’s more than that — it’s also a rock-star manifesto for a downsizing world. At a time when we all get hectored about lowering our expectations, surrendering our attention spans, settling for less, West wants us to demand more.
Nobody else is making music this daring and weird, from the spooky space funk of "Gorgeous" to the King Crimson-biting "Power" to the paranoid staccato strings of "Monster." Nearly six minutes into "Runaway," long after the song has already sealed itself in your brain, the sound cuts out and you think it’s over. Then there’s a plinking piano, the feedback of an electric guitar plugging in, some "Strawberry Fields"-style cellos and Yeezy himself singing a poignant Robert Fripp-style solo through his vocoder. There’s no way it should work, but it keeps rolling for three more minutes without breaking the spell.
Coming off a string of much-publicized emotional meltdowns, Yeezy is taking a deeper look inside the dark corners of his twisted psyche. He has sex and romance on his mind, but he comes clean about his male angst like never before. In confessions like "Runaway" and "Blame Game," he honestly struggles to figure out why he has to be such a douchebag. Yet the songs are also his funniest ever, with Kanye showing off lethal wit on the mic: In "Dark Fantasy," he rhymes "mercy, mercy me, that Murcielago" with "diablo," "bravado" and "My chick in that new Phoebe Philo/So much head, I woke up in Sleepy Hollow."
There’s a famous story about Queen making "Bohemian Rhapsody": Whenever the band thought the song was finished, Freddie Mercury would say, "I’ve added a few more ‘Galileos’ here, dear." But nobody can out-Galileo Kanye. With Fantasy, he makes everybody else on the radio sound laughably meek, but he’s also throwing down a challenge to the audience. Kanye West thinks you’re a moron if you settle for artists who don’t push as hard as he does. And that means pretty much everybody.

this is only the 4th hip-hop album to get 5 stars from Rolling Stone. "Raising Hell" by Run DMC (1986), "Straight Outta Compton" by NWA (1988) and "Late Registration" by Kanye West (2005) were the first three to do it.

I dont like the new hook on Dark Fantasy. It was better in the Runaway video. He always changes shit in the final versions and fucks them up. The only change ive ever liked was what he did to Jesus Walks. But I like the original versions of songs like Hey Mama and Welcome to Heartbreak better.

"Act like I ain't had a belt in two classes,
I ain't got it I'm goin' after whoever who has it,
I'm goin' after WHOEVER! Who has it??"
You blowing up, that’s good, fantastic,
That y’all, it's like that ya’ll
I don’t really give a fuck about it at all
Cause the same people that tried to black ball me
Forgot about 2 things, my black balls"
Kanye went in on Gorgeous!!
