While Jesus Is King has a few standout tracks, the majority of the album consists of unfinished and basic songs that lack any creative depth.
Both Kid Cudi and Kanye are amazing on this album, which has a unique futuristic sound to it. The album's shorter length works well for it, giving it a compact and contained feel, though it doesn't have enough songs to justify a higher rating. Some of the songs are short enough to feel like they could use another verse.
J. Cole’s discography ends on a high note with this album. It feels consistent throughout and maintains its energy and flow between songs, though it can feel bloated at times, with some songs dragging on for a while.
While the album feels scattered in places, it still feels coherent and cohesive in its own right. Relatively overrated IMO, definitely not top five Kanye, definitely has its stronger and weaker points; still a great album overall. The last half dozen songs are great.
Prime Kanye, Drake, and Eminem on a fire beat, and they didn’t disappoint. Wayne’s verse is a little stale IMO, and the song can feel like it was made to just be popular at points, but still a banger.
Great industrial sound, almost an underrated album nowadays. No real weaker points outside of Send It Up, one of Kanye's most consistent.
An under-appreciated album, Ye’s short length works well; it feels concise and thorough at the same time. Not long enough to justify a higher rating.
While a handful of hits are present, the majority is composed of scattered, shallow, and almost unfinished songs with little replay value.
Amazing album, a few lower points but the other tracks are almost exclusively perfect songs.
Near-perfect album, held back by a few weaker tracks but every other song is exceptional. Amazing pop-rap sound, best in Kanye's discography IMO.
Overlooked album in Kanye's discography, but the many of songs are just mediocre. The stronger songs hold the album together well.
Amazing storytelling on the album, a few misses but the highs are extremely high. Overall the best project in Kendrick's discography IMO. (m.A.A.d city is easily top 3 Kendrick)
