Lets get some more tweets in here.

 

[cdyhybrid]

No I don't, but if there was one person that could probably get me to listen to it, It'll be Yeezus.

It's hard to say if someone would like it, haha. It's pretty unique. Do you like Death Grips?

 

[Fry]

I'm in It is fucking dope.

edit:

I'm in it is FUCKING dope!

The fact that I don't know who that is or what is probably a bad sign...

 

[Lucid07]

I'm in it, what an ending!

I'm in It is fucking dope.

I'm in it is FUCKING dope!

Agreed

 

[KingKong]

death grips is rap for people who dont like rap

 

[Mononoke]

No I don't, but if there was one person that could probably get me to listen to it, It'll be Yeezus.

It's liked a fucked up electronic/dark 808s.

This album reminds me of that album more than anything else. But as others have pointed out, it's much more hard hitting. I see you ranked 808s last in his discography, so I doubt you will put this album in your top 3.

 

[Oozer3993]

The stannery in this thread is sickening.

You don't know what you're in for

[Bowser]

I'm not a fan of electronic music but man I'm feeling this album a lot

 

[DominoKid]

for real. nobody should even try to take cues from this sound, just the ambition.
leave this shit to Yeezy....and Travis Scott's entertaining poverty version.

 

[SoilBreak]

It's liked a fucked up electronic/dark 808s.

Especially songs like Guilt Trip.

 

[BIGWORM]

Black girl, sippin white wine/
Put my fist in her, like a civil rights sign/

Got damn.

 

[Dreaver]

I love the TNGHT elements of Blood on the Leaves.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Strongly considering using this as album art.

I mean I love every Ye album, I just didn't put 808s higher because it's not in the genre Ye made before hand.

But if I can change every Kanye album to the Kanye genre, I'm all fo rit lol

 

[iAmMaximus]

So gritty. I love it.

 

[Messofanego]

death grips is rap for people who dont like rap

Is there more "rap for people who don't like rap"? Because I fucking love Death Grips!

 

[Kave_Man]

Listening to it at work through my phone on one shitty headphone and despite that blood on the leaves almost had me acting a fool at my desk.

 

[Lucid07]

Send it up, damn this album is good, I have TLOU waiting to be played but I cant stop listening.

 

[Blearth]

Bound 2

fuck

 

[Soler]

Omg bound 2 is fucking great
Blood on the leaves and bound 2 are the best songs

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

I'm tellin you doe, MC Ride n Kanye on stage spoutin this shit would bring the house down.

Think like, some of Ride's yelps from Guillotine or Klink. New Slaves would be 10x as raw.

 

[MuddyDonut]

death grips is rap for people who dont like rap

Nah Death Grips is great, they're more their own thing than hip hop.

 

[Cynosure]

I sorta like like Hold My Liquor.
Nothing wowed me in first listen like Power, All of the Lights, and Lost in the World did.

 

[Mononoke]

Bound 2 is definitely my favorite track. Wish this album was more like this one (in terms of production). Also love that Omega sample at the end of New Slave.

 

[Bowser]

Every time I listen to Blood On The Leaves I'm just like...

 

[Kusagari]

Blood on the Leaves is one of the most hype songs I've ever heard.

 

[kingocfs]

Album is just hitting the spot for me, it's what I wanted to hear from him right now. No idea where it ranks, but I don't really care atm

[Torso 9000]

Bound 2 though

 

[Soler]

I wish there were some more songs on here tbh
I'm not feeling I'm in it, guilt trip or on sight

 

[chaostrophy]

Is there more "rap for people who don't like rap"? Because I fucking love Death Grips!

Closest band I've heard to Death Grips is Dälek- might want to check them out. Start with their first full-length: From Filthy Tongue of Gods and Griots.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

I like it, a lot.

Baffled by the Blood on the Leaves love though. Take a years old TNGHT beat and throw it over a mismatched piano loop = OMG (somehow)
It just sounds awkward to me.

 

[solarus]

Ok listened again and my initial disappointment is completely gone (tbh i overhyped myself far too much). Album is fucking amazing, i really wish it was longer though. Just two more tracks would be enough. No filler in this though.

 

[Onemic]

bound 2 around my fav. It hit me like a truck

 

[Tokubetsu]

I'm not even on earth right now.

 

[Messofanego]

Oh yeah I've heard a few tracks from them and liked it. Might give the album a go, thanks!

 

[EloquentM]

I don't understand the on sight hate.

 

[victreeb3l]

i like on sight but i think black skinheads should have been the opening track

 

[Fry]

I don't understand the on sight hate.

It's too short!

But yeah, besides that it's pretty good.

 

[solarus]

i like on sight but i think black skinheads should have been the opening track

This! Would have been a killer opening.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Besides the shitty autotune, Blood on the Leaves is working like GANGBUSTAS. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

Between this and RAM, I'm in experimental album heaven. Love that blockbuster artists are really going out there.

 

[MThanded]

Seriously blood on the leaves is going to destroy the club this summer.

I mean what the fuck.

That TNGHT production, a soulful nina simone sample and kanye talking about second string bitches. Good god. Pack it up boys.

 

[djSyndrome]

I sorta like like Hold My Liquor.

Fourth listen of HML and I'm in love. That dirty analog.

 

[victreeb3l]

i broke my neck listening to send it up

This! Would have been a killer opening.

it sets the tone of the album perfectly. ah well.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Taking a break to 1) avoid burnout, 2) actually get some work done, and 3) watch Armin on the Ultra Music Festival Korea replay.

All you others rappers, know that the summer is not your's.

If you got an album coming out this summer, PUSH IT BACK!
