Yeezus

Dominate · 06-17-2013, 11:53 PM

I know ppl talked about it a few days ago
But I wasn't quick enough on any of the links lol

On my first listen now... Not feeling it tbh, for the most part

I agree with whoever said it was "just weird"

My beautiful dark twisted fantasy was weird as well, and dark like this one, but it worked that time... Thought that album was dope af. Yeezus is not. It's TOO weird. Doesn't work. Shits just random noises that don't go together well.

I am dissapoint.

The Bully · 06-18-2013, 12:03 AM

Well...Kanye got evvvverrryone talkin about it, so his plan worked.
This gotta be like the 8th thread about this shit in less than a week haha.
Yea, weird. 808 Heartbreak-esque to me cuz it has a certain sound throughout.
Gotta give Yeezy credit for steppin outside the box again though.

After a while some grow on you. Some still just sound like a bad S&M scene.
I Am a God and Bound are the best to me.

Born Sinner though.

Dominate · 06-18-2013, 12:12 AM

yeah, but ppl woulda talked about a new kanye album regardless

And a couple good songs can't save the whole album - Love lockdown & heartless were good but 808s was wack overall. Couple of the other songs woulda been good without the autotune

Iunno... Only "certain sound" I hear in this is randomness

It's "different", no doubt, but I don't think that qualifies it as "good"

06-18-2013, 12:23 AM

Didn't listen, Won't listen.

Have fun.

The Bully · 06-18-2013, 12:23 AM

If you go back to my post in the original thread...or just reread that post above you.
I never said it was good. I don't think 808 & Heartbreaks was good either.

The certain sound I'm talking about is Daft Punk production, which is credited on half the tracks.

And I think the fact that it has a unique sound makes it polarizing...
and people are talking about it more because of that.

Geno · 06-18-2013, 12:50 AM

Kanye = genius. Love this album so far. Havnt even peeped it thoroughly yet lyrical wise. But I dig the sound. Loved 808's as well.

I guarantee it grows on everyone who doesn't like it now.

Fig · 06-18-2013, 02:40 AM

Yeezus is tight af. People need to be bumping this shit

Really though, if you're not playing this album really fuckin loud, your gettin' half the experience

Dominate · 06-18-2013, 02:43 AM

Ah hah word fair point I'm only playing it through my iPhone now
@Genocide yeah ur right I'm liking it more after a couple plays lol. Still don't think it's anything on MBDTF or his earlier shit though

super pimp trillionaire · 06-18-2013, 02:53 AM

808 taught me that ye leans toward a bang this album type of production...
gotta check this shit

Orc · 06-18-2013, 04:11 AM

Its good to play loud. Production wise its amazing. Some stupid random sounds in some songs that annoy

Malachi · 06-18-2013, 04:44 AM

I don't like rock or dubstep or whatever
So I didn't like the production.
I didn't think it was shit tho just didn't enjoy it.
Only liked/added New Slaves to the iPod

Will relisten later today to confirm my feelings.

Paradigm · 06-18-2013, 05:07 AM

I really like EDM music but havent had a chance to go download that album yet... so kinda looking forward to it now

all kanyes new sht for the most part has been more 'electronica' based than hip hop to me, that ive heard...not sayin it aint hip hop...but i feel likes he set in making like his own genre

Geno · 06-18-2013, 08:50 AM

Cruel summer > mbdtf
