    Kanye is the greatest artist of all time and honestly saying anything that contradicts that point makes you sound like you don't care about black people.

    From beginning to end, Donda is everything we have waited for, simply put, leaks we heard and loved, make their place on DONDA with a refined form. Including a variety of songs that were never heard before (as albums should be presented)

    I simple don't have words to describe how important is that album. Kanye made, in my opinion, his best album of the last years. It's powerful, amazing feats, great melody, an construction really beautiful.

    Donda é como ir á igreja - sendo você cristão, ateu, religioso ou o qualquer outra coisa que você seja- aos domingos.
    Vou explicar: Kanye West representa aqui a pessoa que vai a igreja. Ele tem mil problemas, ele está se divorciando, vai ficar um pouco mais longe dos filhos. Ele perdeu a mãe, ele sofre com isso. Ele não tem mais a mãe aqui pra dar colo a ele quando ele precisar e isso
    Donda é como ir á igreja - sendo você cristão, ateu, religioso ou o qualquer outra coisa que você seja- aos domingos.
    Vou explicar: Kanye West representa aqui a pessoa que vai a igreja. Ele tem mil problemas, ele está se divorciando, vai ficar um pouco mais longe dos filhos. Ele perdeu a mãe, ele sofre com isso. Ele não tem mais a mãe aqui pra dar colo a ele quando ele precisar e isso machuca. Kanye teve uma infância difícil, tem cicatrizes, tem dores e tem lembranças dos tempos em que tudo era difícil. Mas as coisas estão melhores? Algumas sim, outras não mudaram e parecem até imutáveis. E os conhecidos dele? Também tem dores, também tem problemas, também tem perdas. E ele os absorve. Nós absorvemos as angústias alheias também quando o angustiado é alguém por quem temos apreço. E agora ele tem as dores e questões dele e as dores e questões de, sei la, mais 5 pessoas. Isso tudo enfrentando um divórcio, pensando nos filhos, na mãe, nos problemas que estão ao redor dele. São muitas coisas.. mas estamos na igreja. Quando tudo parece não ter sentido, quando tudo parece nos levar para a ponte mais alta da cidade que nos convida para dar fim em tudo alguém estará lá para nos salvar? Não nos salvar, tipo, impedindo que nos joguemos da ponte. Pergunto se alguém, de fato, estará lá para nos salvar? Para salvar ele?
    Deus está, pelo menos em teoria. Nossos antepassados e os antepassados dos nossos antepassados já tinham o costume de se agarrar na fé quando precisavam de um Salvador que não se encontrava entre os homens. Esse salvador é Deus? Quem sabe se ele existe? Mas se não chamar por ele, por quem ele irá chamar? Quem é que vai nos salvar?
    Um domingo na igreja é um dia em família. É pra ser um dia feliz, um dia de cantar junto ao coral, de ser grato por estar com quem mais amamos, por mais que alguns ambientes religiosos sejam extremamente tóxicos, o que aquilo e aquele significa pra ele é maior do que isso. E o momento de estar na igreja aos domingos é o acalanto para uma alma que sofre por mil motivos. Uma alma negra, de um homem negro, de alguém que tem tudo e todos contra si, de quem é invalidado e atacado a todos os momentos, de quem está constantemente vendo sua cabeça sendo oferecida a pseudo-justiceiros que pensam estar numa posição segura para fazer julgamentos. Eles realmente julgam, mesmo que sua vida não seja exemplo para nada e nem para ninguém. E eles não se vêem lá, eles não se vêem em Donda. O que eles vêem é um homem negro que é um alvo fácil, o que eles vem é alguém que eles podem atacar gratuitamente, afinal quem irá defende-lo depois de tudo? Quem vai salva-lo?
    Essa bagagem que levamos para a igreja costuma pesar, ye sabe disso.
    Perturbado com a própria perturbação e a perturbação do perturbado, Kanye faz nascer o álbum Donda..

    Uma visita à igreja aos domingos.

    Desde mi punto de vista uno de los mejores álbumes del año,

    Totalmente innovador, contiene bastantes elementos que en muchas ocasiones se sale de lo que uno está acostumbrado, la producción está a un nivel muy por encima de lo habitual, un trabajo muy espiritual y completo.

    In itself, the way this album was promoted was phenomenal, it's just that we were too expecting something extraordinary. A few songs I don't like (e.g. Hurricane, Come to Life, Remote Control), but there are also songs that I liked immediately (e.g. Jail, 24, Moon). I was a bit disappointed, however, I think this is a reasonably good album in terms of performance.

    Kanye has delivered a beast of an album with a tremendous track list of 27. All the songs don't need to be here, that's for sure.

His synth use on the album shines brightly on tracks like Hurricane and No Child Left Behind.

However, this does not take away from the fact that some of his best music since 2010 sits on this record. His synth use on the album shines brightly on tracks like Hurricane and No Child Left Behind. Some of the features on this album do fall flat, however the ones that hit hard really elevate some of the tracks. His lyrics are divisive and at times comical, which is what fans of his have come to accept over the last few releases. This is mixed in between heart felt lyrics however that we really haven't spotted since 808's and heartbreaks.

    Some say less is more, but in this situation we'd rather more than none at all. A solid album that could have benefited from some trimming.

    Like if TLOP and JIK had a baby and that baby was rad as hell. There are a few songs that could have been shortened or even omitted but this is a damn good album. So many great features.

    Un álbum demasiado largo y que tuvo que recurrir a un exceso de colaboraciones para intentar sobresalir.

    Kanye West used to make albums that were fun to listen to and had actual hits on them. This album is boring Christian propaganda with good production.

    Not worth the wait. Nothing compared to Kanye’s previous albums. I guess he misses his wife though

    "Ye" has yet again not only reinvented himself, but has pushed the world's perspective of modern music yet again. With his immaculate rollout of his 10th studio album he revisits many ideas, feelings and sounds of his past, present, and eventual future. I personally recommend going into this album understanding that the basis of Christianity is popular because it easily encapsulates the"Ye" has yet again not only reinvented himself, but has pushed the world's perspective of modern music yet again.

I personally recommend going into this album understanding that the basis of Christianity is popular because it easily encapsulates the human condition itself. The idea of the devil and god can be related to ones inner conscienceness. Kanye has perfectly captured the feelings of shame, passion, hope and glory in his lyrics and his beats. Wether or not you believe in the same God that Kanye does, you can take the music at your own face value Expand

    Dull album, just noise going arround controversy. The Weeknd saved this album with "Hurricane".

    This is pure garbage. Taylor did better. I can’t listen to it without feeling sick. Kim Kardashian did well listening this **** with no volume.

    More hype than quality since TLOP, and with Marilyn Manson and DaBaby I just can’t.

    There’s a lot to unpack here. Too many songs, terrible people, and way too much Jesus for my personal taste. There’s definitely some promise and interesting sounds - but it’s just not worth sifting through the mud to find gold.

    absolutely nothing interesting to say. empty words about nothing against a pretty soundscape that means nothing, redeems nothing, proves nothing, saves nothing but the artist’s own ego and determination to self-aggrandize.

    This is pretty bad. I honestly don't know how someone could hear this and give it a positive score. It's repetitive and gets boring quick. It reeks of ego, like Kanye is trying too hard and overcompensating because he has no fresh sounds or interesting takes left.

    Way too long! Many of the songs aren’t necessary for the album. Definitely was not worth the wait. In the end, there are a handful of picks off of the album that are okay, however the sheer number of songs that it is made up of is entirely too many. 0 out of 10 for me.

    this album was truly disappointing, it seems like everyone on the internet had been hyping it up to be so much more than it turned out, i really feel for kanye and i don’t know what’s going on with him right now but i hope he finds help. this album i feel like needed to be made but was horribly executed and did not require the multiple wipings of all the posts on kanye’s instagram, thethis album was truly disappointing, it seems like everyone on the internet had been hyping it up to be so much more than it turned out, i really feel for kanye and i don’t know what’s going on with him right now but i hope he finds help. this album i feel like needed to be made but was horribly executed and did not require the multiple wipings of all the posts on kanye’s instagram, the cult like listening parties, and certainly not the tone deaf post on kanye’s instagram stating universal released his album without him giving the ok Expand

    For me this album is really messy. Some songs make sense others not a little bit. Some of the songs are very messy and are not good at all. I understand what Kanye wanted to do but it’s not his best album, i would say it’s his worse.

    Give it some years until people understand this piece of art which is way ahead of their tiny tiny minds.

    Though this isn’t a complete comeback, frustrated Kanye fans certainly have more grounds for optimism after this record than they did before it.

    Donda isn't without its highlights, but taken as a whole, it's both confused and confusing.

    There are times where Kanye recaptures the magic of his golden years. ... But there just isn’t enough good here to look past the flaws. The final result is a collection of songs with little binding energy other than a vague Gospel through line, which runs across the tracklist — chaotic like The Life Of Pablo but devoid of the magic.
