Why you be acting like this yo yo? Ever since Yeezus released you been acting a fool. I think you secretly hate it on the low low.
How is Yeezus anything beyond an average album yo yo? Let's debate this yo yo. Yeezus 6/10 on a good day.

Most of the albums I've listened to this year, the ones that I liked, I never listened to again.. I actually thought Born Sinner was a great album at first listen but it wasn't second listen, and right now I can't get past the first track without falling into an endless loop of yawns, desperately trying to kick my way out of a long night sleep. The Gifted has only one song with replay value and that's being "Simple Man". Watching Movies with the Sound Off is a difficult listen, it's too long and I lost interest in it with time. As a Travi$ Scott and a Migos fan, there's only few situations or times where I feel like I want to listen to their projects, and that applies to Acid Rap too. My Name Is My Name loses it's pace in the middle and Old has it's ups and downs. But I think Yeezus is perfect.
If I wanted to get all technical and detailed with Yeezus, I'd say it has only one point of excellence. It is the album with the biggest amount of replay value that was ever released. And that's pretty much the only way I can put it. The amount of plays I have given any other release this year, combined, isn't more than Yeezus. It already received more plays than My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, it already has more plays than any of my favorite albums. I've been listening to it for about four months now and it haven't lost the slightest bit of replay value. Four months. Being the big Kanye fan, I could say I've been listening to it at least once every day. It has been my go-to project for four months now.
It's 40-minutes of compressed magnificence hasn't affected my life in anyway but making all of my pre-Yeezus favorite albums sound completely dated and lackluster, and that includes MBDTF. And here's the thing, I couldn't give a fuck to defend anything else from what you would define as terrible lyricism, EDM-sellout or hypocritical approach even though I don't agree. Personally, I would take that great piece of rap/fusion genre that is pushing boundaries than the genius concept album that combines excellent lyricism with charisma. BigGhostFase said he wanted nine more Bound 2's to make Yeezus a great album, and I said Bound 2 is my least favorite song on the album. Rap music bored me for a while and I switched to R&B, dubstep, rock, trap and electronic music for a while because I've been missing a project like this.
Sure, that's a good album, but how long will I be playing it for? How long will it take for it to be boring? I don't remember any rap project released last year, the highlights of last year in music to me were Channel Orange and Lonerism (Yes, Cruel Summer was garbage). This year it's Yeezus and literally nothing else comes close. Every one of it's short yet powerful musical clusterfuck screams to get noticed, they don't fall back in line as a mellow, easy-listen or a filler. Get noticed, as in, either love it or hate it, and it just happens that I loved all of them. It's a package of different.. Sort of like the movie "The Breakfast Club" where you have five noticeably different people in the same room, put together at a beautiful order, it forced everyone to have an opinion and every song was screaming either love me or hate me with no in between. It was completely unexpected from Kanye (Perhaps even more than 808s & Heartbreak) and everyone knew it was bound 2 cause controversy.
I try to not base my opinion on the greatness of anything familiar, whether it is me thinking Yeezus is a great album and me not fucking with Death Grips who also bring something new to the table, I actually fuck heavily with Kiss Land perhaps even more than Trilogy, and I think Young Rich Niggas is the best mixtape of 2013, it's all me, and at this time, I couldn't care about what's great and what's not, when people say "people don't know what they want until it's presented to them" they're talking about what they want and not what's "great" and what's not. Did you know that "Kid A" was panned by some critics at time of it's release? Did you know that "808s & Heartbreak" was also panned by some critics? Also, the very idea of Hip Hop music, rhyming spoken words to fast paced, simple melodies of snares and kicks seems ridiculous. You being the Emomen stan that you are, the very same thing happened to Relapse. Now I'd like you to explain to me, how did it become some sort of a cult classic 4 years later? Exactly! Maybe I'm wrong, but maybe I'm not.
I won't go in HHD and debate why Yeezus is great in the technical sense and defend it 24/7 because that's not what it was made for, and because I prefer to sit back and watch, but when I publicly express why "Yeezus is my favorite album of all time", why I think "Yeezus is a 10/10" album, or how I think Yeezus is AOTY, please don't think I am trolling, because I am nothing but serious.
In terms of rap, Nothing Was The Same and Doris are respectively #2 and #3. I'm sure LIL_B doesn't like Doris but I think it also has a great amount of replay value. Rap-wise, I'm willing to bet those three are the only albums that will make it past 2013 to me. That's my only criteria for greatness these days.
Here's all what you need, brother.
