smooth and amazing, unbelievable work for someone who was 21 making this. superwoman is ascendant.
Extremely memorable project! Interesting artistic decisions constantly made throughout this whole thing. definitely Kanye's "fuck it, do whatever" album (in a good way). I couldn't ask for a better follow up to MBDTF in terms of contrast (where do you go from crowdpleasing and self-awareness? telling a crowd to take it up their ass and creating a mask of anger for even having to make a crowdpleaser)
Fine album held up by a couple of really excellent tracks, but those tracks are awesome. I don't get the hate for Lift Off, but maybe it just means I should listen to more Beyonce.
