Sep 3, 2021A masterpiece in music and live performance that will only get better in time, if this is Kanye West’s final album it is the perfect way to end the musical career of the greatest artist of our time

Sep 4, 2021Dobry album kocham go essa essa kanye król jebać leszcza drake. Kanye jest
-
Sep 4, 2021Even at the age of 44 kanye continues to release tracks full of youth and vigor. This album is full on experimental and chaotic at times but thats what makes it a kanye album.

Sep 4, 2021I see too many people saying this album is either AOTY or complete garbage, let's be honest it is neither, I think the album is way too long and on the second listen a lot of songs got pretty boring once the excitement wore off. Still, it has an interesting and slightly unfinished production with a few bangers like Hurricane, and Jail.

Sep 4, 2021Just the best album I've ever heard in my life. Definitely one of the best albums of all Kanye West's carreer.
-
Sep 4, 2021This has to be the worst album ye has released. It’s all over the place and a whole mess. He has definitely gone downhill. Overhyped album that was a huge letdown.
-
Sep 4, 2021this album hits! its exactly what jik shouldve been. the amazing lyrics and features make every song on this album an experience to listen to. my only issue with the album is that its a bit too long. with a runtime of almost 2 hours, its the longest kanye album by far. Otherwise, i love this album and it is one of kanyes best!

Sep 4, 2021Album of a life time.

Sep 5, 2021Only 4/27 songs were good honestly. Couldn’t get through majority of the album. He has not evolved at all.

Sep 5, 2021Great tribute to his late mother, Kanye really knows how to get the best of the artists featured in the album, he's really the greatest to ever do it.
-
Sep 5, 2021The album slaps. Another bonafide masterpiece!
This is all that really needs to be said but there is a minimum character limit so... -
Sep 6, 2021Best Kanye album we have received since Pablo. Production was amazing only set backs are a few uninteresting tracks and a whole lot of good ones
-
Sep 6, 2021
-
Sep 8, 2021I think its a great project. We see some of kanyes best singing. Some of his best producing. I think there are the classic couple silly cringy kanye bars so its not a 10. But this is an amazing album
-
Sep 17, 2021ShiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIt in my opinion
-

-
Oct 13, 2021INCOMINGGGG! AOTY anyone who says otherwise is racist, sorry i dont make the rules.
-
Oct 31, 2021Even worse than the boring, preachy Jesus album. Kanye doesn’t know how to make good music anymore. I don’t know what happened to him. He fell off and will never recover
-
Nov 13, 2021Amazingly well crafted. Only critique is that some parts may be a little unnecessary.
-
Dec 2, 2022**** this Nazi. Knew he was absolute **** when he interrupted Taylor Swift. IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT and for all you dumb ****s to realize who this **** is.
-
Nov 23, 2022what the heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellll is this **** my expectations were low but holy ****
-
Dec 1, 2022Let's be honest guys, this album is **** I didn't like anything about it. Kanye has lost it.
-
Aug 31, 2021This is a masterwork of emotions and beautiful sonics. It's a long album but damn, it doesn't feel long. His best work since MBDTF and Yeezus. Highly recommended.
-

-
Aug 30, 2021It just doesn’t cut it. It feels like the spectacle heading up to the album release was all he was really going for abs the listener is left confused. Only stans trying to make this album seen better than it really is
-
Sep 10, 2021
-
Aug 30, 2021I'm not sure if I hated this because I kept comparing it to his other work, but it's really bad. I guess we can call it an album?
-
Aug 31, 2021Easily Kanye's weakest album, and I'm a Stan. I don't think he's made anything truly great since Yeezus, but at least his other albums since then haven't been so bloated.
Sparse production, repetitive lyrics. A few sparks of Kanye's creativity but this really isn't a good album. -

Sep 3, 2021Pésimo, sobre producido y muy cargado, mucho relleno, la misma propuesta de siempre, Kanye viene entregando lo mismo desde 2013...
-
Sep 3, 2021An album full of incredible highs and the lowest of lows. Donda is excruciatingly long due to needless filer and lacks the structure of previous releases
-
Sep 3, 2021Album far short of the artist that Kanye West proved to be. Definitely sometimes I think this is just a passing outburst and that soon he will be aware of making good music again.
-
Sep 8, 2021Pretentious, uninspired, auto-tuned fluff. Hopefully this will be the nail in the coffin for 10-15 tears of crap hip hop albums.
-
Sep 5, 2021Album is a huge grower. While I wasn’t sold on it at first, the more I’ve listened, the more it continues to grow. This is easily some of Kanye’s most beautiful and best work in a long time. It’s not a perfect album, but it’s damn near close.
-
Aug 30, 2021There's no way in hell that Ye can be a Priest after this. I know Kanye misses his Mom but needs mental psychiatric help. And his latest album is a mess but at the same time it sounds pretty good too on a technical sound standpoint..
-
Aug 31, 2021A had to do this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aug 30, 2021It has its moments with songs like Jesus Lord, God Breathed & Moon but ultimately it's too long, feature-heavy, and unfocused. Donda deserved better than this.
-

-
Aug 30, 2021Such a great album, great lyrics but dababy is disgusting
Kanye ended that local white snake. -
Sep 4, 2021Overall it’s a cool album not great, but not bad either. The highs are amazing, and the production is great but there are too many songs and some filler that brings the album down
-
Aug 31, 2021Most of the critic reviews are a complete joke. Why is Trump even mentioned in the first paragraph of most of these reviews? Also if Kanye didn't bring out Manson and DaBaby I'm sure the critic reviews would be different.
-
Aug 31, 2021This album seems to be all of his album's sounds into one album. Musically this album is great. This is better that 90% of the hip hop albums released in the past years.
-
Oct 30, 2022A very solid gospel rap album, yes there are some weak tracks, and it's a bit silly that it's a clean album for the sake of being an all black cover without a parental advisory logo... but it works.
-
Sep 2, 2021Although the project is lacking in focus and shrouded in drama, it is also one of the most insightful and refreshing projects to come to hip-hop in years.
-

Sep 2, 2021Amazing album, Kanye was on his A-Game. A bit bloated, but its heavenly at the same time.
-
Sep 5, 2021utter crap, kanye needs to go back to his roots and understand what made him good to begin with because he has been getting worse and worse for a long time now
-
Sep 3, 2021Another incredibly strong album from Kanye, his most personal yet, very heavy in places but worth investing the time
-
Aug 30, 2021Not free from mix blemishes, problems with vocals or unnecessary tracks, but "Donda" contains some of West's best material. While Manson being on the record is inexcusable, it doesn't change the facts that the music on the album is simply of very high quality. I hope for some further improvement, but even without it - amazing listen.
-
Aug 30, 2021A production without a cover and songs that do not cite contributions. Is this his way of making it look conceptual and revolutionary? It's just tacky, ugly and malicious. There's no ̶t̶r̶u̶m̶p̶ card, the music has never sounded so poorly contrived. If he didn't plan on taking a award out of Swift's hand, he might plan on stealing her marketing ideas.
-
Aug 30, 2021I enjoyed it, it's theme is mostly cohesive and it is what Jesus is King should be. Maybe a top5 Kanye album
-

-
Sep 1, 2021It's too long as a whole album but for the songs themselves are (for the most part) actually quite good.
-
Aug 30, 2021This album is so boring and monotone. Such a waste of time. I couldn't hear nothing worst than this.
-
Sep 4, 2021
-
Nov 13, 2021So boring and excessively long. Donda leaves a sour taste that no number of good beats, gospel choirs, or church organs will cleanse. Zero stars.
-
Sep 2, 2021People go on and on about their political views and then decide to support this man. It is completely different to judge the art from awful people when their art doesn't reflect the awful people they are. It is not the case here. Independent said it best.
-
Sep 20, 2021Dondaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i’m so sorry because your narcissu son gave you his worst album ever after your name.
-
Aug 31, 2021Top 3 Kanye Albums. Maybe it's too long but a great album. I like it too much. Haters gonna hate
-
Aug 31, 2021This metacritic rating is wayyy too low. Such a great and atmospheric album
-
Aug 31, 2021
-
Sep 3, 2021Features some of the best songs of the year, great to see Kanye and Jay-Z back together again as well. However this album suffers from a serious length issue. Some songs could be taken out, tell the vision wasn’t even finished. Underneath this 27 song montage is a much superior and laser focused 15 track album.
-
Aug 31, 2021At best a Top 5 Kanye West album. Sadly the album is over cluttered with unnecessary fillers that didnt really do anything. Still though, there are some musically insane productions on this collection of songs that give you the feeling they came from Prime 2010 Kanye!

-
Aug 30, 2021Music for hedgefund bros indeed. Pure garbage with criminaIs as features. Kanye’s worst album
-
Aug 31, 2021Donda is a masterpiece, after several delays and drama over the last year, i can say that the album came out perfect with some great productions and features.
-
Aug 31, 2021Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Aug 30, 2021Un saludo a cringe musical xdxdxdxddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
-
Sep 3, 2021Kanye said that universal released this album without his approval, and sure enough it does sound incomplete and no where near as good as his earlier projects.
-
Sep 2, 2021It's just a bad album, I didn't like it at all. Including that it is basic, and too long for what it offers us, he should have left it at 0 songs, and never put out this album.

Sep 16, 2021Why is this piece of trash was ever released! I’m so ashamed to used to like your music, now I’m on team Drake!
-
Aug 30, 2021Way too long. Nobody needs all 27 of this songs. Most of them feel like filler tracks. And envolving people like Manson didn't help sell it to me. A reflection of how and why Kanye is slowly becoming irrelevant in the music industry
-
Aug 31, 2021That are no words in the english language that can properly describe how awful this music made me feel.
-
Aug 30, 2021pure trash, i'm not surprised at this release its purpose was to raise awareness towards these sort of people

Nov 26, 2021Worst album. Poor beats, poor music, poor voice & poor lyrics. Had high expectation because of his earlier good work. He. Should retire from industry.
-
Aug 31, 2021a psychopath may work out an good album but kanye the lunatic will never. pure sh*t.
Awards & Rankings
-
Sep 3, 2021Though this isn’t a complete comeback, frustrated Kanye fans certainly have more grounds for optimism after this record than they did before it.
-
Sep 2, 2021Donda isn't without its highlights, but taken as a whole, it's both confused and confusing.
-
Sep 2, 2021There 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.
