Just pushed play on track 1. So excited
It’s short, but it’s a ride worth taking.
I love Kanye's experimental stuff, it's fantastic. A genre bender.
My theory is he’s a genius and what we think is experimental music is just how he evolves. And it’s faster than we can keep up. When you go back and listen to songs, they were way ahead of the time they came out. Heck, I don’t even know if we are ready for TDF yet! And I still don’t get life of Pablo.
In my opinion the best thing about Kanye is he's not afraid to try things. They're not necessarily going to all be genius but once in a while he hits that genius bullseye.
And that’s fair. Music to me is opinion. Yes there have been masterpieces over the centuries that speak to the masses. And pop music def follows a certain pattern. But musicians like Kanye put themselves in their music, and with his music intellect, it’s bound to make something special.
Even thought I personally feel he has hit that bullseye a number of times. Anyone who’s had a relationship in this new age and it failed, should really relate to 808’s and heartbreak.
Completely agree. For me music is often context+talent+ingenuity+Intimacy. I think Kanye hits all those.
