But... But... There is substance.
Even if it's just on "Real Friends," "NMPILA," "Wolves," "30 Hours," (I pick these because they're song you have claimed to like, right?)... Even if it's only those tracks, that's still four out of this world songs. I think College Dropout only has about 4 truly out of this world tracks...
"Famous" (dude this is seriously my favorite Kanye track since pre-Yeezus)
I am not trying to convince you to like the album. I AM trying to convince you to give it more time. And I'm definitely trying to convince you to NOT allow this one disappointment to ruin Ye for you.
Sorry bro, I'm not trying to troll you here. But we're stuck in a bit of a stalemate. The more you diss the album, the more I'm probably going to praise it and question you about it. I don't want to piss you off, but I also don't want you talking crazy, saying you're rethinking all of his music.
