Lugubrious Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Just saying when 808's came out people were vilifying Kanye for that album too, he made that in a few weeks too. A lot of people's opinions changed on that album. nardes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'm not gonna lie the album has grown on me a little, the first two songs are still not that good to me though. The Saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsNJazz Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I just don't get how people think reviewing someones politics has any weight on the actual material, and I don't think the album is "Far-Right" at all clerk3745 and Tommy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get this isn't as "groundbreaking" as 808s was, but I fully believe people are going to look back at this album in a few years and "get it" Personally, I'm still loving it. I feel like it's honest and just where he is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather just listen to an album and form my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I enjoyed the album. I think I feel the opposite of most people though. I really liked the first 3 or 4 tracks (I don’t remember, I’ve only listened once) and then it kind of fell off for me after that. I think I was hoping for more “bangers?” Is that what kids are saying these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
