Absolutely Amazing. Definitely best album of 2010.
5/5
Blame Game is my favourite song, the second verse is incredible. The whole album is INCREDIBLE.
Henry, looking foward to the J.Cole Friday Night Lights review.
After hearing the number of great producers (Premier, Rock, Q-Tip, and RZA) on the album I thought that this album was somehow going to blend modern approaches with more classic 90’s ones. Going in with this impression I was naturally a little disappointed but what I did find was still impressive. Kanye’s rhyme quality and vocabulary have improved considerably and I was glad that every song didn’t have a million guest appearances. For that and the originality of the beats, he certainly does deserve commendation.

The only producer that worked on this album was RZA.
Premier, Pete and Tip beats are going to be used in the Watch The Throne album with Jay. And also GOOD Fridays Songs (The Joy and Chain Heavy).
oh i heard in an interview with Kanye that they were on it..but nvm. now you’ve piqued my interest for that album, thanks lol.
Chain Heavy is on itunes deluxe. Preemo worked on Monster too. Idk about Pete Rock on MBDTF
definitely checking this out when it drops. in the mean time, i’m immensely enjoying friday night lights by j. cole. any chance of a review on that one, henry? btw great job on this one.
great review, I was hoping it would get the 5 stars it deserves. This is an album for the ages, I want to know if you think it tops college drop out, which I think is now his 2nd best album. My favourites are ; Blame Game, Power, Hell of A Life & Lost in the World. Looking foward to the friday night lights review
Lovin’ all the interviews lately Henry!
great review this is his best work so far I might go as far as saying its the best album of the year in any genre.
bwahahahaha nice review
You must do a review on this song…
One had 290,000 views in a few hours and got ripped off.

Excellent album by Kanye West. He brought his A-Game for his album. No matter what even on 808 & Heartbreak Kanye always puts his best effort into his music.
