Jesus is King is a very hit or miss album with some some songs that do fulfill the idea of a good gospel song, but a lot of other tracks just feel devoid of any personality, also there are a few tracks Kanye is barely on. Also I feel like a lot of the good tracks were short, and they sounded like they still had more potential. And one the opposite side a lot of the worse tracks ran on for too long, not that they really would have been good at any length.

OK, this is something that I have been wanting to get off my chest for a long time and just rant about. The rapping on Freeee is so so good from all participants, kanye, cudi and ty all cook. They all deliver manic, chaotic, and honestly peak flows for a few short seconds before that FREEEEEEEEEEEE comes in. I don't think this is a bad song but I wish I could get more of these flows. WHY DO THEY NEVER RAP LIKE THIS AGAIN, it sounds so good. Especially Cudi, his rapping is great on Freeee ... read more
Ye (who knew what the name would inspire today) is a short but sweet album. Once you get past the first 3 songs, they're good overall but not to the other tracks level, you will reach a state of floatation. Seriously, Wouldn't Leave especially had me nearly levitating. This album really is a look into Kanyes mind (original statement) that shows you were he was mentally during the creation of this album and that is something that really intrigues me.

Kanye, kanye, kanye
The Life Of Pablo has always been up there for me, always in contention for my favorite album, there is just so many good songs, so much replay value. Heavenly songs like 30 Hours or Saint Pablo (Kanyes best song) or higher energy like Waves or No More Parties In LA. I feel like this album only gets better and better with every listen I give it. It's very close to Late Registration, both masterpieces.
Kanye had the better verse on NMPILA.

Yeezus's opening track "On Sight" comes in hard and on this track in particular you can see how much this album influenced the modern day underground rage genre. Yeezus is an excellent album, with the first 5 tracks being one of Kanyes best track runs of all time. It's hard to get enough of the confident chaos this album provides the listener with. Maybe top 3 kanye? (It's not, it's number 4)
Best song: Hold My Liquor
Worst song: Send It Up
