Jan 17, 2015Kanye West does it again and this album shows that after the Taylor Swift incident and made a big comeback. The production on the album showcased Kanye's ability to outshine on the boards and it also showed me that Kanye is truly great
-
Dec 19, 2019Fabulous. The best rap/ hip-hop album of de last decade. Kanye mixed everything that doesn't had nothing with hip-hop and turned into it.

Apr 28, 2015An instant classic, this album his Kanye's best work along with College dropout. A masterpiece in Kanye's unique style of hip-hop, the album will be hard to beat for any artist in the years to come.

May 27, 2015The only Kanye album I own, the only hip hop album I own. Kanye's willingness to experiment with his music is what I've always loved about him as an artist, and never has this experimental side of his work been so successful as it is on this album. While occasionally you're left questioning how some of his experiments ever escaped the recording studio, the majority of this album is pure gold.

Feb 4, 2018This album is a masterpiece from kanye and it's still the best album of the decade so far , the production is stunning and kanye's way of mixing up different genre of music is amazing i mean this is still a hip hop record but even if your'e not a fan of hip hop i'm sure you'd still enjoy it

Nov 25, 2015A phenomenal hip hop masterpiece. Provides a great blend of more accessible pop-rap tracks and introspective, grand, and complex rap compositions that really set the bar for hip hop musicians to come. It is large in scope but still a joy to listen to.
-
Dec 19, 2015My beautiful dark twisted fantasy is a real classic. Favourite tracks 'so apalled', 'dark fantasy', 'runaway' and 'power', but everything is absolutely perfect. :)
-
Jan 11, 2016Might be my favorite album of all time, a musical experience like no other. Kanye west is one of the best artists of our century and he justifies that by coming up with a different sound every other year and dominating the music world.
-
Feb 16, 2016Greatest album of all time, enough said. Incredible production, amazing features, and a godly flow that is second to none. Cannot begin to explain the effect this album has on listeners, it is a journey for everyone.
-
Mar 11, 201692/100. Probably my favorite Rap/Hip-Hop album ever.Kanye West brings us an amazing album here with songs that are emotional, radio-friendly, complex, innovative, and meaningful all at the same time. Say what you want about Kanye West, but the man puts out some really amazing music.
-
Apr 13, 2016The greatest hip-hop album of the 21st century, a landmark moment for the entire rap genre and Kanye West's ultimate statement as a music artist. A true classic of the album art form.

Jun 29, 2016Best Kanye West album till today. No words to describe. It's just perfect. It's like an album which cones after decades.
Favourite tracks - Lost in yhe World, Dark Fanrasy, All of the Lights, Blame Game, Devil in a New Dress -
May 5, 2016The prolific lyrics, the amazing production, and the sick collaborations all come together to create what is probably the best album of the decade so far. Any user who writes a negative review clearly hasn't understood that he's apologizing

Oct 30, 2022Meh, I haven't really listened to this album all that much. Power is a fantastic track and that's about all I can say for this release.

Jun 9, 2017Kanye changed the game with this record. He made Bon Iver cooler. He introduced much of the world to Nicki Minaj. He saved lives with his masterpiece -- and magnum opus -- My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
-
Nov 29, 2016My favorite Kanye album. The first track, Dark Fantasy, is the best opening track I have heard in an album. When I first heard that song, I knew this album was going to be amazing. Hate on Kanye as much as you want, but you cannot deny that this man is a GENIUS when it comes to music.
-
Jan 27, 2017Kanye being real to himself and making the most of his troubles to produce a masterpiece. This is an instant classic, his best album ever! The features are on point, the production is flawless and Yeezy here spits some of the realest **** he been through and anybody can easily relate. 10/10 straight up!
-
Jan 26, 2017Kanye West has created the Pet Sounds or Sgt. Pepper's of the millennial generation. Every song has something unique to contribute and the deep tracks are arguably as good if not better than the singles.

Mar 11, 2017This is by far Kanye's best album so far I personally don't think this album should be rated higher than good kid m.A.A.d city for so many reasons, however, it's still a fantastic artistic album that gives us a view of Kanye's thoughts.
-
Jun 8, 2018One of the best hip hop albums ever (or at least that i've heard).
Lot of influences, for example Iron Man or 21st century schizoid man. Killing beats and good lyrics as well. -
Apr 16, 2017Undoubtedly Kanye's best work and one of the best hip-hop albums of the past decade. The beats are beautiful across the entire album and the lyrically Kanye is on top of his game. The features all perform excellently particularly Nicki Minaj and Pusha T, this album is perfection.
-
Jul 28, 2019The magnum opus of my favorite artist to ever live. MBDTF is an unreal album. It is incredibly layered and meticulous, in depth with a subtle and poignant concept. The song structures, the samples, eclectic music, the incredible displays of lyricism all make this undoubtedly one of music's most iconic and unforgettable records.
-
Apr 26, 2017This album shows Kanye at the top. He is as controversial, polarizing but creative as ever. It's been a bumpy ride for him before and after this record, but we must be thankful that we are left with a masterpiece that will define this decade's music. After all, it's Kanye's beautiful dark twisted fantasy.
-
May 2, 2017I have never understood Kanye West fans, but I haven't been listening to hip hop devotedly for more than 2 years. It occurred to me that I should try some of his older stuff, and it is now abundantly clear to me why he has fans. This album is artistically impeccable and he has fallen so far from glory. His fans are nostalgic for the real music.
-
May 29, 2017Its no doubt that Kanye created a game changing album. All of the tones included in this album packs different themes and topics. Even to this day, the album still holds strong. A timeless classic.

Oct 4, 2017If I could give this a 11/10 I would. This is the best album I've ever heard from Kanye, and the 3rd best album I've ever heard. Incredible production, masterful lyrics, and some of the best singing I've ever heard from the guest artists. 10/10
-
Sep 30, 2017The greatest album of all time. Each song has meaning and its own vibe. Songs like Runaway and Dark Fantasy (the first track) channel a wide variety of feelings of sound, and ultimately this yields a gorgeous example of completionism and perfection. When listening to the production, it is overwhelmingly clean and perfected. This is actually so flame

Nov 20, 2017Невероятно красивый альбом с великолепным звуком.Лучший релиз выпущенный в 2010 году.Альбомы Канье-это всегда событие которое нельзя пропускать.Не зря этот альбом получил такие оценки.
-
Nov 13, 2017Possibly the best produced album of all time. Combine this production with the plethora of incredible verses, not just from Mr West but from featured artists like Nikki Minaj, Pusha T and Rick Ross and you have one of Hip-Hop's finest works.
-
Dec 20, 2017kanye made a masterpiece not through his rap technique, but through his Kanye. idk how to explain that but kanye he's not rapping, he's kanyeing things. he's kanye music. the kanye era start wit kanye and ends with music

Aug 14, 2019Perfect from front to back. Kanye West is the greatest modern composer. From every individual little sample and drum to the features, it’s all put together perfectly. Kanye said it himself, “I know how to make perfect (with MBDTF)”. And he is absolutely right.
-

Jun 4, 2019Despite its pornography cover, Kanye shaped his most creative album in his career, beyond the boundaries of Hip Hop, and into the mix of every genre of music. Best rap album in the decade.

Dec 12, 2018jesus **** christ. sometimes im not in the mood for runaway because im not in the mood to cry. power is poetry, devil in a new dress is my favorite kanye song, and lost in the world is the best song for some moods. you heard that penentury chances bar, it made me get an erection that i had to get drained by medical professionals.

Feb 7, 2019MBDTF is an album where Kanye's reinvention is phenomenal, and the break he took in Hawaii is that of almost miracles. This album captivates hip hop and music for all of its great elements, classical, modern and contemporary. The only issues are slight shortcomings on the last 4 tracks of the album. However the songs from dark fantasy through Runaway there is not a single fault to point out.

Mar 12, 2019This album changed:
My life,
My perception of real, complete music
My thought of there is never being a perfect rap album
WAKE UP MR WEST -
Apr 2, 2019This album is great and deserves all the praise! Has many great tracks such as Runaway, Power, and Monster. Defintely worth listening to!
-
Apr 25, 2019Personally, I think all of Kanye's albums are amazing. But this album is easily his magna opus. Everything is amazing about this album.

Jun 7, 2019This album is Kanye West at his best. From the production of the album to the features that cross genres. This album is it.
-
Jun 25, 2019Best album of the decennium. Not a single bad song can be found on the album. I would give it a 100 if I could!
-
Jun 29, 2019Best Rap album of all time. Kanye West is at his creative and artistic peak, he’s an **** yet he’s lovable, he’s thoughtless yet thought provoking. It’s truly a one of a kind piece of music.
-
Jul 30, 2020Magnífico. El mejor álbum de Kanye. El disco más relevante de la década junto con To Pimp a Butterfly de Kendrick Lamar.

Aug 2, 2019I’ve listened to the greatest album of all time since it’s released and the way this album makes me feel is beyond words. I literally listen to this album every single day. I **** you not. Front to back everyday. While having a life might I add. I can listen to it on repeat and never get tired of it. Such a great moment in history. This will always be a part of my life forever.
-
Aug 24, 2019Kanye just shows his brilliance over and over again. Recovering from the loss of his mother and being socially outcasted, he releases this masterpiece of an album to prove he is one of the greatest artists of all time.
-
Aug 26, 2019I'm not a huge fan of hip-hop but this album is an exception. It's clearly flawlessly arranged, the lyrics brilliantly showcase emotions of the artist and, in my experience, this is his best work and the best of what the genre can offer.
-
Jan 23, 2020Way better than anything Cringenem has put out last decade and will always be regarded as one of the best albums to date
-
Mar 3, 2022this is a phenomenal album in every aspect, through out time it was become more and more enjoyable to listen to and was instantly a classic when it was released
-
Jan 22, 2020Easily, the best album of the 2010s and a contender for the best hip-hop album of all time! Timeless classic that has aged very well.
-
Oct 25, 2019Probably the best Kanye's album, the one that he worked the hardest on, the best thing about it is, even if you didn't like some song on it (somehow) you will still remember it. Ungodly production.

Nov 2, 2019Short and Sweet Description: A Masterpiece, no skips on this album. It’s beautiful.
-
Apr 24, 2022HAHAHAHA MAN! Com'on, this is art. This is pure art. I can't define this album in words. Kanye really put on this world, the best album of the 21th century. The person who say this album is trash have only 2 definitions: 1st - Wants attention 2nd - dumb and crazy af
Literally the album with 0 skips. I can hear this for my entire life.
Ye da goat no cap -

Dec 26, 2019In one of the few perfect 10s of this decade, Kanye West seemingly hits everything musically on MBDTF. The production, features, lyricism, and beats make for a beautiful and conflicting listening experience. Arguably the most complete musical album of the 10s’, definitely deserves and will receive listens for years to come.
-
Jan 2, 2020This album is a classic! From the instrumentals to the verses and even the features themselves, this album will definitely stand the test of time and is, in my opinion, one of the greatest(and most important) albums to ever come out.
