Nov 22, 2010This album feels hollow compared to his last releases. The music itself is uninteresting and has Kanye trying to reinvent himself yet again; however, unlike past releases, he failed at creating a solid album.

Nov 29, 2010Until Kanye West returns to his roots and puts out an album close to the lyrical skill and production of The College Dropout, I will continue to be disappointed. That said, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy can be praised for its uniqueness and sound. But some songs last way too long and for the amount this CD cost to make and the time it took, it should have more than 12.5 tracks.

Dec 25, 2010Good album. Weird but good. The reason I marked it down is because he tries to sing every now and again and he sucks, but when he's not singing it's awesome.
-
Dec 3, 2010Album of the decade.
-
Dec 6, 2010There are some songs that remind me of old Kanye, but many that remind me of 808 Kanye. Most lyrics aren't up to par with Kanye's ability, being over shadowed by good beats that make certain songs better than they should be.

Sep 6, 2011Better than Watch The Throne one way and bad in another. Lacking Jay-Z skills but still keeping true to the Kanye format. Good album but could have been better.

Jun 29, 2011Having read the glowing reviews and having listened to the singles, the album was disappointing to me. Most tracks are overlong and boring. "Runaway", however, remains one of the best tracks of 2010 and "Power" and "All of the Lights" are good as well.
-
Jul 28, 2011Very well produced album, but definitely not the best album of 2010. The high points were very high, while the low points were...very low. I do have to give credit to Kanye's impressive musical knowledge and very well done sampling.

Sep 12, 2015This album is the definiton of musical perfection. kanye, with this album, cemented himself as a genius in my mind. I don't think I have ever heard such a cohesive, emotional collection of songs before. Kanye is simply a king, as proved by this phenomenon.

Dec 22, 2015Um... I guess the production was cool, but what he's rapping about doesn't interest me much. I guess the project was "okay". I don't really see all the hype around this record to be honest.

Oct 20, 2021Boring and monotonous. Album may only appeal to hip-hop fans. Kanye has more varied albums
-
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. -
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.

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.

Jan 28, 2020Didn't like the album. Kinda sucked. Good beats, if you like banging your heads on a fridge. And auto tune is way to abundant.
-
Jan 27, 2020Album sounded good for about a month. Same with most albums critics praise, but after a while, the hype dies down and you realize you got caught up. Can't stand it at the moment.
-
Jan 22, 2020One of the greatest albums in music history. PERIOD. Production on another level, great songwriting and some of the best feature verses in history.
-
Jan 28, 2020Not a good hip hop album by any means. Simplistic rhymes and garbage production.
-
Jan 22, 2020After being in serious hot water after countless problems due to his behavior, Kanye West had no choice but to release a masterpiece to save his career. So he did that.
-
Jan 28, 2020Pure trash. I hate the sound of most of the songs here, i don't know maybe because we all have different type of music but this one's a trashy album. This should've never existed in the first place. Just pure trash, not even hating.
-
Jan 28, 2020Kanye the goat I love Kanye I love yeezy they are very very very very nice and I love Kim kardashian

Jan 28, 2020Petty has to get matched with petty. Recent reviewers should hopefully know what I'm talking about

Jan 28, 2020Wack if they wanna be petty. We can be stupid petty. Let’s see how this goes
-
Jan 28, 2020Was never a big kanye fan but decided to give this a chance and I'm still not a big kanye fan.
-
Jan 28, 2020This is pure trash. When he will pay Moby for copyrights? When he will start to do music? This is worst than bieber's music.
-
Jan 29, 2020I would rather drag my balls through 10 miles of broken glass than listen to this album.
-
Jan 30, 2020I guess kanye should stick with designing shoes and stop doing music
-
Feb 18, 2020Score is not based on melody or weather females shake there ass in club to it or not I based it on not being real hiphop
-
May 22, 2020Una completa cagada, ni siquiera se como está cosa sigue sacando música si todo lo que hace es una completa mierda
-
Mar 25, 2020Kanye's magnum opus about a false reality. A 10/10 classic. Best album of the 2010s.
-
Apr 17, 2020Perfect. Rap really doesn't get better than this, the sounds at the end of Runaway sound better than some rappers' entire albums. It's really an experience.

Jul 18, 2020The unfinished sounding beats combined with the same neglect to the lyrics leaves this album lacking, true talent.

Aug 28, 2020The most overrated album od all time not surprised from the most overrated artist of all time pure tr**ash thanks god we have other artist like kendrick to clear our ears
-
Aug 28, 2020Disgusting album. Every song sounds like trash except for Monster, only because Nicki is in it. I don’t know why he ever made music to begin with. He is totally irrelevant and a delusional Trump supporter.
-
Sep 13, 2020Everyone keeps mentioning the Kanye West genius but I have yet to hear it, on this album or the rest of his body of work.
-
Nov 22, 2020One of the best rap/hiphop albums ever made.
Rated by many professional music reviewers as a 10 with little to no flaws through it's 75 minute runtime. -
Jan 10, 2021Fantastic lyrics from the returning Kanye West as he combats all the unpleasant press with one of his best albums and one of the best albums of all time.
-
Feb 12, 2021One of if not my favourite Kanye record. It is amazing and gets better with every song.

Oct 31, 2021This album is so overrated it’s hilarious. It’s proof music critics don’t know anything about what they’re talking about
It has one OK song (you know the one) and the rest is corny. I’m cringing -

May 24, 2011Whilst some of it (power and gorgeous) becomes completely disengaging the other songs like all of the lights, lost in the world and dark fantasy create one of the best dark albums in years.

Jun 12, 2011WOW, MASTERPIECE, that's the only accurate way of defining this album, it is sick twisted and on that next level, Kanye West is a mad genius, who leads us into the realm of this inner most thoughts on an album, and has an album that you can simply enjoy, if you have 12$ you want to spend on music, spend it on this album!
-
Feb 22, 2012Holy **** And I mean holy **** Every track from Dark Fantasy to Who Will Survive In America is **** genius. Especially the song Runaway. Holy **** **** I think I shat my pants around the 5 minute part and then almost came when the song was over. This album sure is dark, twisted but unbelievably beautiful. LISTEN
-
Dec 25, 2010Yup, K did it again. Another superb record full of original, stand-out numbers. Say what you want about his character, but he seems to be growing and growing as a musician, which is nice to see as most start off good and then get worse and worse. Also good to seem him return toi rap after after his last album, which although good, wasn't what I wanted to hear from him personally.

Nov 14, 2013Kanye West doesn't fail. He hasn't yet and he probably never will. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy shows a different kinda Kanye. No sane man could've written this album. It's flawless to the teeth. Each track is a hip hop masterpiece. The lyrics are raw, the production is exquisite, this album is a landmark in music history. All In All, Twisted Fantasy is flawless in every aspect. A
-
Jan 27, 2011Kanye's best album to date by far. Im pretty sure that MBDTF is gonna be nominated to album of the year on Grammys of 2012. However, i think that it didn't had to reach #1 on Billboard 200. Nicki deserve that #1. Whatever. Great album.
-
Jan 31, 2012I love this album. Kanye West once again showed us that he's one of the best musicians in music right now. MBDTF has many highlights: Dark fantasy, Blame game, Lost in the world, Runaway, All of the lights etc. I enjoyed the album. It's Kanye's heart served on a plate.

Dec 11, 2010Some of the songs in here weren't as great, but the whole album overall really satifies fans of Kayne West. Runaway, Power, and a lot others received great ratings and are very rock and roll songs. Kayne is one of the artist of the year, even with the Taylor Swift episode.

Dec 10, 2010i just finished listening to the majority of it a few minutes ago. it literally made me want to find a review site so i can say this: amazing. i'm seriously not into rap or hip-hop, or whatever you want to call it. and i'm not a fan of Kanye as a person, but i can not deny that he is an amazing artist.
-
Dec 14, 2010This is Kanye's "Purple Rain". A true statement from a true artist. Plus it's "LOL" funny and you can dance to it. The fact that Kanye tempers his anger with humor and backs up his bravado with absolute killer hooks makes him the real deal.
-
Dec 17, 2010This album is great and can only be described as a brand new and original approach to hip hop. Although some songs are quite boring, the mostly brilliant tracks - to name a few examples: Gorgeous, All Of The Lights, Devil In A New Dress and Monster. Power was a great first single from the album which had me hooked for a long time and runaway was great.
-
Dec 19, 2010I used to like rap at the end of the '80's and early '90's, like Public Enemy, De La Soul, and Ice Cube. But that was eternity ago. This right here? I don't get. Maybe I gotta listen a few more times, but I'm really wondering if these rappers are ever gonna stop with the N and F words all the time. Just sounds all the same to me.

Feb 1, 2011The sound of the album is EPIC. I think it would take 3 to 4 years for another artist to top this. The only bad thing would be the lyrics and it being VERY unorthodox,

Jul 22, 2011Just when I was ready to count Kanye out of the game - let's face it, it's a long fall from The College Dropout to 808s and Heartbreak - he delivers this, probably the strangest and most unpredictable album mainstream hip hop has ever seen. If any album can be called "art rap," it's this one - you certainly wouldn't hear a four-minute guitar solo on a Lil Wayne song, now would you?

UncutSep 19, 2012West is far from rap's deftest lyricist but his neurotic grandstanding is compelling and often pretty funny to boot. [Feb 2011, p.84]
