@onedarkhorse_ Kendrick Better Rapper, Kanye better Discography…simple

hate aside, who is the better rapper and who has the better discography? kanye or. kendrick

@DebatingHipHop_ Donda V1 BULLY Donda 2 V2 (River might be the best song from all albums)

How would you rank Kanye West’s discography in the 2020’s? Donda Vultures 1 BULLY Donda 2 Vultures 2

@tervisscoot Important point to raise

There is an epidemic of unfinished “first pressing” or “V1” vinyls that ship out the week an artist drops their album, solely to boost their first week sales This primarily happens in hip-hop, as a lot of big rap artists can typically wait until the last minute to submit their finalized album, whereas preparing physical units like vinyl and CDs can take MONTHS to complete So now, instead of being rewarded for supporting an artist on their release week, fans are being punished for it Artists can go through changes in creative direction often and spontaneously, and that’s understandable But, it’s unfair to the fans who buy a piece of physical media from an artist they love, only to receive a derivative version of that album in the mail, sometimes without even knowing that’ll be the case before they make the purchase This is not directed towards anyone specifically, as many major labels/artist teams have implemented this strategy to avoid losses in sales and revenue I hope Billboard and Luminate can implement a policy to reduce this issue, as I believe that’s the only way this can be resolved If you took the time to read all this, thank you! I’d love to hear your thoughts

@Jasp3r_0 This album is just middling, I understand people are excited by the newer tracks but they are pretty average by Ye standards. While the OG bully tracks no longer fit, are altered badly and sound soulless because the vocal performances were poor and require retakes/reinvention

Okay so I’ve had some time to sit with this album and tbh I have mixed feelings The first 9 track run is genuinely the best thing Ye has done since Donda. The production is awesome, he’s got some funny bars and he seems more or less energetic on the vocals. The only thing I have a problem with is the length of some of these tracks. I wish they were a little longer I love the mix of soul samples and Yeezus - esque production. The features do their thing too But the album takes a turn for the worse after that. Maybe it’s because I’ve heard the AI versions of these songs but they just seem so soulless to me. Even when they don’t have AI Ye’s vocals for example on Preacher Man just sound so tired like he’s being forced to record them Circles is one of the worst songs Ye has ever released and Damn is literally the same few AI lines looped for 2 minutes. Not to mention how they massacred Showtime (also AI slop) I get there’s always hope they will fix some of these things but on the other hand is it really too much to ask for to get a polished album on release ? This album has been delayed so many times I refuse to believe he didn’t have time to fix all these things before release Anyway as I said in my first reaction this definitely exceeded my expectations and I can see myself coming back to a good chunk of that first half

@didjesusdrop Naa

It's been enough time.

@JonDenton @kanyestreams1 The bar has reached the floor with Kanye…

@00CACTUS1 @glen_sather @kanyestreams1 Logic prevails lol 🫡

@glen_sather @MitchODT @kanyestreams1 He was using burn as a comparison for a good song your clearly trying to direct the argument elsewhere now that your losing your arguments point

The album is pretty good. One of the only downsides is you’re getting into the song but it ends early. Wish some of these songs were a little longer. Even if just 2-3 songs got extended, then it’d make the other short ones a little less noticeable. It’s definitely an album you want to actually play throughout instead of play-listing songs because of that

Glad Kanye West/YE is back with BULLY but I’m not glazing 2min snippets and worst versions of AI tracks #ye #kanyewest #bully #hiphop

@glen_sather @kanyestreams1 E.g. This is a must is 1:27 then listen to the abrupt cut and tell me that’s finished. Clear filler on a basic beat. Also Vultures 1 has Problematic, Back to me, Burn, Beg Forgiveness…

@MitchODT @kanyestreams1 Its a fine album but it doesnt have a song anywhere near All the Love quality. Also not sure what songs on Bully arent finished? Maybe they just arent what you wanted

@glen_sather @kanyestreams1 V1 hate is weird, the songs were actually finished lol

@MitchODT @kanyestreams1 Lmao V1

@jbc09090 @kanyestreams1 I’m not glazing 2min snippets and worst version of AI tracks

@MitchODT @kanyestreams1 ass take unfortunately

@kanyestreams1 First half new songs sound like demos All The Love to Punch Drunk are the standouts. New versions of older bully songs just don’t hit the same with the new sounds, it’s less somber now

First thoughts on Bully by #Ye?

@mimitheblogger Not with this album, sounds too unfinished

Kanye might be back back

@GhostTownYZY This is not better then Vultures 1, the new songs on Bully mostly sound like demos

Hot take but this album clears Vultures easily, and is a similar level to Donda. Like bro just listen to this song😮‍💨

Bully 1st listen wasn’t great can’t lie… Unfinished sounding tracks mixed with demoitis. #ye #kanye #bully

@kanyestreams1 We are sooo backkk

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

@TFTerraceMedia Them AIG United teams were different can’t lie…

What's the greatest Premier League front three of all-time? 🔱 🤔

@OfficiallyIce No debate 🫡 College Trilogy and Dark Fantasy. 808s Yeezus TLOP and Watch the Throne are also contenders

Kanye does. 🫡
