these backing synths on Can't Hold My Liquor.
Good loooooord. I'm getting flashbacks of Pacino shooting DeNiro in Heat and walking up to his body. I don't know why that scene sprung to mind of all things though.
I kinda want to play this album and watch some Argento movies on mute.

Everything is random, and noisy, like I expected, not for me.
alright chill out bro, his album was still solid. There's no doubt you are hating so hard that I can't take you seriously

Kanye West for James Bond theme song
Kanye West should also do the soundtrack for a Michael Mann movie.
No, swap those around.
Spot on my dude. Spot on.
Clearly i hit a nerve there, nothing wrong with stating what i feel. Many people have said the same thing already in this thread, chill out.

sadly not, but tbh there is no fit for him in here. except for bound 2 I'd say.
yeah I'm gonna need a few months, maybe years to truly rank this. but as of now it's his second best just behind 808s. it's also very cohesive.

I think if he scored a movie it would be very Tarentino-esque.. Also the Omega sample at the end of New Slaves is some uplifting shit and belongs in a movie.
The albums great, it needs to be heard it sucks that it might get no radio play but i know yeezy gives no fucks.
EDIT:^^^^^ truth
"Heard at normal levels, “Yeezus” becomes an illuminating counterpoint to “Random Access Memories,” the new album by the French duo Daft Punk. (They are friends of West’s, and worked on several of his new songs.) “Random Access Memories” is a celebration of music that Daft Punk loved as kids, a reconstruction of the pop landscape of the late seventies, when albums were often lush and used detail to soothe and entertain. “Yeezus” is also technically breathtaking, but it has the opposite effect: its many flashes are the sonic equivalent of interrogation lamps, not disco balls. “Yeezus” charges out of the gate, sometimes switching sounds and textures without bothering to maintain tempo, then jerking back into position and rattling forward. There’s very little fat. “Yeezus” is a fiercely edited, assaultive, and noisy work, concerned less with grandeur than with intensity. It doesn’t sound like anything else on the charts."
Perfectly put.

Whoa... Bound 2 is wow...
I think Ye is one of the most qualified producers to score a movie. Would be worth it for the middle finger to Quincy Jones alone.
I think Ye would be up for it too.
I love the album so this is just a small nitpick, but does anybody else wish Kanye got as intense vocally on the albums as he does live? Just one example is in New Slaves, around the "fuck you and your hampton house" part. Live he yells it with heaps of passion, but on the album it's just like a slightly raised voice.
I think if he let loose in the studio a bit more, he could take these songs to the next level. Same goes for the delivery of Black Skinhead.
