baton

if i ever get diagnosed with an uncurable disease i want to travel to the deep depths of the ocean with nothing but a shitty cheap submarine, a turntable, a limited supply of oxygen and a vinyl copy of this album

denzel in this record raps like he's got rent due, awesome

probably the most boring album ive heard even only having around 20 mins of length which is a pretty crazy feat. it's good when kanye switches to regular rapping sometimes but not that great either, the gospel vibe of this album bores me to no end and i just can't stand the constant ringing noise in use this gospel nor a lot of bland choruses in basically most tracks being performed over the type of beats you would hear when you're taking an elevator.

unlike a lot of kanye albums 808s stays pretty consistent in quality the whole way through. basically every song in this ranges from good to great (pinnochio story would be trash if you're not listening to the album front to back tho)
