Wow, that's saying something! You love Yeezus.
I think I love Yeezus more than I have ever loved Yeezus before. I don't think I really "got" just how excellent the second half of that album was until this year, even though it was my fave of 2013.
I mean.. "Blood on the Leaves" ... wow. "Guilt Trip" is really turning into one of my all time favorite Ye songs. And "Send it up" and "Bound 2" are both excellent of course.
I'm not sure where TLOP ranks for me... but that's because I love all the albums in different ways. I think "Real Friends" is just about peak Kanye, same for Fade and ULB and Famous. I wish "30 hours" was longer (more song, less shout out), but my complaints about the tracks on TLOP have almost completely disappeared.
You've GOTTA hear the way he's doing Father 1-2 live. It's mindblowing .
