    Weighed and measured, Graduation is easily the best rap album this year.
  2. Stylus Magazine
    91
    Musically, at least, it's the most accomplished thing he's ever done.
  3. New Musical Express (NME)
    60
    Despite its five or six great tracks, Graduation feels more and more like the work of a follower, not a leader.

    By far one of Kanye's best albums. And definetely one of my favourites too.

    My initial love for this album faded only too quickly, now with 'Flashing Lights' and 'I Wonder' adding any replay value to what essentially is an over-hyped, over-stuffed and less endearing offering from Kanye.… Expand

    A pile of S&*t. I regard Kanye West as one of the contributers to the decline of the music industry.
