Kanye West - The Life of Pablo |OT2| I miss the OT1 Kanye.
- Thread starter Bronx-Man
- Start date
Well, I posted today about looking forward to another video from Kanye
Yeezus answered my prayers
I'll go with Highlights as my bet, though.
If he wants to make something super epic: ULB
If he wants to ride the controversy wave: Famous
If he wants a radio jam: Waves or NMPILA
If he wants to make something super artsy: FML or Real Friends
Have a feeling it's going to be something left field like Freestyle 4, though.

Well, there was the rumor he'd be shooting the video at Yucatan's Aztec pyramids, does that fit super epic?

I'm down for a 30 Hours vid. Freestyle 4 could be a prelude or interlude in another video...Facts video with the Charlie Heat beat could go hard too.
Interview with the punk band Section 25 who Ye sampled on FML:

double jump
you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
Thanks. That's my favorite part of the song. so good.
I need to explore punk some more. No other genre of music feels as free.
Actually just read the article and I love it when different genres collide. That mutual respect is beautiful.
To be honest, do any of his lyrics really land on this album?
Feedback, FML, NMPILA, ULB, Real friends. The more I listen the less the lyrics bother me, and I was super critical of them at first.

NMPILA lyrics are great. Feel like Dark Fantasy/Otis -type bars.

Kanye ruins FSMH with those bullshit asshole lines, ruined an amazing Cudi hook
Not landing is whatever, but someone of these are up in your face disgraceful.

The beat in Pt2 is what dreams are made of
Lol yeah golden.
The verse being personal doesn't make the lyrics great. They work perfectly fine here but are you really suggesting the writing here is strong enough for something not as frantic as Pt. 2?
If Ye wrote this verse for something as slow as Low Lights people would probably rank it among the worst of the album lol. It's part of the reason why the asshole line sticks out so much.
Why are you judging the verse outside of the context of the song? That makes no sense, and is straight up unfair. Why don't we just compare how Illmatic verses would be if they were on Swishahouse records? Or hell, even on Pt.2? Because they'd be garbage and received as garbage upon first listen. That verse was written for that song, not some other song.PSY・S;197019905 said:
The franticness of the verse is what makes it so great. Dude is cataloging all the misgivings and hurdles he's had in life, and the verse has urgency, rhythm and escalates to catharsis. All while being insightful and introspective. I'm not sure what's missing that is essential to having a great verse.
I'm not saying it's a bad verse at all. It's one of my favorite on the album. I still think it's Ye's delivery and not the writing that makes it shine.
Probably stole that GameBoy Kanye could never find, too.
I felt a certain type of way when I found out it's Panda with Kanye doing stuff over it.

It's pretty awesome how pleased they seemed to be with the whole thing. It's such a cool part of the song, I'm glad they're on it.

Man, OG Highlights is like a College Dropout version of the song. It's all over the place, but it's so awesome.
LOL, listening right now, it's really all over the place.

Are we giving up? I must say, hype is dying fast for me
Now it all makes sense. Yeezus was stressing over Leo.
Now that Leo has won, he can focus on the album.
