Before, every time i heard about kanye, it was just negative stuff, so i never really paid much attention to his music. Then i went through some hardships and gave a listen to 808 and heartbreaks. That changed everything. And MBDTF is definitely one of the greatest album of all time not just in the history of Hip-Hop, but in music history.

I don’t think anything besides to pimp a butterfly will come close to executing that high level high art of an album Kanye has created. Hip hop was originally the voice for the inner city that became pioneers and trailblazers. The George Condo art Kanye made is a masterpiece of a statement that hip hop can be luxurious. That’s why this album will be top 10 in music history. And it’s incredible that Kanye has done it.

It's a timeless album, you can hear now and think that could be release today. Kanye West has the best discography of rap, he can't be only compared to other rappers, Kanye reached the levels of Beatles, Michael Jackson, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, David Bowie and Led Zeppelin

And then last month while listening to The Life of Pablo driving my family across province I was struck with a revelation. “This is the best album I’ve ever heard!” It was a clear, definitive, and true thought. And I hold it still. I’m sure it’ll hold it for a long time.

The first song I ever listened to on this album was Runaway back in 2010-2011 at 11 years old, because my older brother had it downloaded on iTunes and i copied all his music. Is wasn’t until recently that I discovered the whole album and it blew my mind and has become my most listened to album of the year and Runaway is still top dog at my #1 song played. Purely a timeless album.
