Even if they delete their tweets, with the wayback machine it's a wrap for everybody.
Won't really matter unless they find some extreme stuff. Everybody will have those immature skeletons in their Internet past.

Those old tweets got me dieing.
It's easy to hate Wale. Ross swears he's the next Langston Hughes, when he raps that average ass remedial poetry of his.

Born Sinner started off somewhat strong for me.
It's been nothing but lullabies since the third track; I'm getting sleepy over here.
Does it get better?
I didn't really get into Cole World so this guy probably isn't my bag.

Not really feeling it so far.
"Back To The Feature" was such a great mixtape -- his first studio album was pretty good too.
I can't believe I'm saying this but I think he should just stick to guest appearances.
He's fallen off since signing with MMG. His lyrics are wack, sound very repetitive and contradicts everything he preached in his earlier mixtapes. It's unfortunate, I really thought he was the next best thing.

Digging this. Especially the Exorcist, Tubular Bells-ish thing going on.
I like this a lot. It seems like you're getting the hang of beatmaking rather quickly.
I like it. I don't have my speakers plugged in so I can't tell if there is a bassline or not?
If I had thought to bring my mic with me I'd be tempted to throw something on top of that for fun. I have some old piece of shit mic here somewhere, maybe ill see if it still works sometime this week.

I can't finish this album; it's boring. Is there a single on this?
Just when I think he's gonna get going on a track he starts singing. He shouldn't sing.
Sorry J. Cole, I tried.

Power Trip and Crooked Smile are the singles.
So it's a week later, what do you guys think about Yeezus?
I listened to it a ton over the last week and I really love it. It's such a cohesive piece of work, every song and lyric and beat and sample belong on it and build up to something greater than a sum of its parts. I can't think of a song I don't like but my favorites are New Slaves, Blood on the Leaves, Hold My Liquor, I'm in It and Bound 2
College Dropout is my favorite album of his but I like Yeezus a lot more than Dark Twisted Fantast, 808s and Graduation

Loving Yeezus and still listening.
What I dig about Kanye's work (and Yeezus is no different) is that every time I listen I hear something different that wasn't there before.
As minimalistic as the production is, there is a lot going on conceptually and I enjoy experiencing it. The ambition of it all is the cherry on top for me.

Yo I like this beat.
It's an embarrassing mess with brief moments of interest. Like someone made a tasty meal, then tossed that shit in a blender with every other ingredient in the kitchen and served it up like some fancy new form of meal. You can taste remnants of something delicious, but most of it is just a nasty pile of shit trying to look more clever than it is.

that was amazing. song not so much. but loved the video.
Yeezus is pretty great. As far as ease of listening to I'd put it up there with graduation. I don't really have to sit down and listen to them I can just sing along. I won't give you my actual rankings on the album because they change so much. It's a bit hard for me to say this album is better than this since all his albums have unique strengths and weaknesses. It just depends on my mood. Anyways, back to yeezus someone in the other thread said that bound 2 was the litmus test to see if people were stuck on the old ye. I personally think that on sight is that litmus test. It's a very polarizing track to begin with especially when people think this is a hip-hop album first and foremost. I feel that if you're having problems with that initial song you're going to have problems with the rest of the album. Yeezus is sonically more cohesive than any other album he's previously put out. It's just a fun I don't give a fuck album with hints of emotion, hints of social commentary, and decisive hints of self parody. It seems as if ye didn't want to go full in with this album. It seems more as if he just wanted to make you jam all summer and I'm okay with that. I wouldn't rate this album above a lot of his others but this album is probably going to rank and be a favorite above the others for a while.
It's dope as fuck, still goes in the whip, has a nice mix of production from a bunch of different sources.
Hold My Liquor is my soty

'Bound 2' is the satisfying climax after a build up of constant oppression and darkness.
It's 'Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah' after coming out of the Laughing Place and threats of being thrown into the briar patch.

Hold My Liquor is the point where Yeezus goes from really good to great for me. Overall it still holds up and I can listen all the way through still.

I want to hear a more traditional take on that Bound 2 sample, I'm sure there's a version on the editing room floor that is smooth as hell.

Incredible, I'm fairly certain this is how my ranking goes as well.
I disagree with parts of your list, but I respect it because WTT was pretty bad and overated IMO
