so my take? tl;dr = this is awesome.
On first listen I'm pretty sure I like it more than Yeezus, Cruel Summer and Watch The Throne. To say this another way - I think this is his best album since Dark Twisted. Which is saying a lot.
I loved Yeezus but it was ugly. Don't get me wrong, I loved the ugly. But so much if this is beautiful, soulful, dark. "Ultralight Beams" is a brilliant way to start the album. Gorgeous. "Feedback" is crazy. "Low Lights/High Lights" is a great little suite. I had heard him do "I Love Kanye" in that SNL skit but had no idea it was acapella on the album. I love that. "FML" and "Real Friends" are just classic self-deprecation and honest Kanye. I love when he does this self-aware stuff. "30 Hours" and "No More Parties" too.
Yeah man, this has definite AOTY possibility written all over it for me. Though the year is young of course.
