Feb 17, 2011Brilliance, insanity, & virtuosity condensed in 13 gripping tracks.. By far the best rap / hip hop album of the past decade. The lyrics are clever, the production is off the charts. If you love music you'll fall in love with this album.
-
Feb 10, 2011Ouch, my ears! Since when did stealing others' music and shouting at people qualify as creating? This is just another example of meglomania unchecked, a man surrounded by yes-men, the critics falling into that category as a whole. Give me some great Wyclef any day over this.

Feb 9, 2011The production on this album is fantastic. Truth be told, if this record featured a better lyricist I would enjoy it very much. Kanye should have stuck to being a producer. That is truly what he does best. His vocals are far too **** and ignorant to give him the kind of credit and reviews he has been getting.

Feb 7, 2011By far the best album kanye has ever made. Features 8 fantastic songs plus a few b sides. This is worth it and people with mean comments must be crazy.

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,

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 18, 2011A revolutionary Album, maybe his 808s & Heartbreak Album wasn't great but it only shows that it was practice for "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy."
-This will be an album to remember. -
Jan 16, 2011Without a doubt the best album to be released this year. It's good from start to finish and it's a shining example of what current rap music should sound like. It's bold and daring, using sounds that other hiphop/rap artists would be afraid to touch. But Kanye is, and always has been ahead of the pack.
-
Jan 15, 2011Kanye Wests new album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is one of the greatest albums ever. Especially for the hip-hop genre this album is important. 14 fantastic songs, i dont know which is best, impossible to say. Kanye really shows hes a fantastic artist. If you miss this album, youre missing the 00s best one!

Dec 29, 2010This is really the best album that exists. It has incredible songs, like: Dark Fantasy, Power, So Apalled, Runaway, Blame Game and Lost in the World. The lyrics are awesome. They are funny and emotional. I have only compliments for "My beautiful dark twisted fantasy"!!!. Kanye West is the best Raper in the world!

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 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.

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.

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 16, 2010Ok, I am a big fan of Kanye. I have followed his career. I would not say this album is a disappointment since he has followed in his latest trend of mediocre lyrics coupled with synthesized sound. I am jumping off this band wagon.
-

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 13, 2010superbe album de kanye west .really a great work and it gives a new version of hip-hop c'est comme tout une revolucion dans le genre we needed it something new. c'est incontestablement The Best Album Of The Year & one of The GREATEST hip-hop album ever.thank you Kanye
-
Dec 13, 2010Magnum Opus. I've been following Kanye West before he released his first album. Every one of his last four albums has been phenomenal but this album has taken things to the next level. Gonna be difficult to top this one. ALBUM OF THE YEAR

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 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.

Dec 1, 2010Makes every album this year feel lightweight
-
Dec 1, 2010Kanye West even with his high ignorance showed everyone that bad attitude has nothing to do with making good music.
-
Dec 1, 2010As much as I dislike the man in the spotlight for his arrogance, after a couple listens through this album I couldn't help but dig on some of the beats and relate to some of the descriptive lyrics.

Dec 1, 2010One of the best mainstream hip hop albums of the year.. I personally like the fact that he acknowledge his faults but at the same time gives the middle finger to his haters and critics...

Nov 29, 2010Kanye returns with a very strong actual rap album. This is the album that has stirred inside his head for 20 years. Despite the fame, money, and women, he truly is a psychologically troubled individual who straddles the line between unbridled ego and unbearable agony. He is a black William Burroughs - the "American Rapper."
-
Nov 29, 2010Talyor Swift fans out in full force.Kanye Snatches mics and still gets 90+ metacritic scores
-
Nov 29, 2010Don't want to hate on the album, it's pretty good but extremely over hyped. No wonder his ego is so big the way people feed him with these reviews.
-

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.
-
Nov 28, 2010Beautiful, the perfect mix of Kanye's rapping and his exquisite taste in music. Absolutely the best album he's made to date, the perfect recovery from 808s and his recent history. Kanye's back, and he's rewritten the rules of rap once again!
-
Nov 28, 2010This is a Genius What a great Album. Comes from Kanye's heart. This album is to everyone who has questioned Kanye West's artistic abilities. Very deep, and a new approach to hip-hop. Is this album going to change Hip Hop for good?
-

Nov 27, 2010Wow, this album is amazing! This is hands down the best Kanye album since Late Registration. Every track is is great, no skips and the massive amounts of guests do not weigh it down nor drown out West. I didn't expect this album to be as good as I thought, I would gladly buy 2 of them as gifts.

Nov 26, 2010Didn't expect anything less from Kanye. He just doesn't know how to put out a wack album. No other Hip-Hop Artist can do what he does. it's a definate 10/10 for me...20/10 if possible.
-
Nov 25, 2010Heat for the street! This cd has the arrogance of LL's Bigger and Deffer, the with of Slick Ricks Adventure of....,the boldness of Ice Cubes Amerikkka's most and the conscienceness of PE's It takes of million..
Definitely a masterpiece!!!!!!!!!! -

Nov 24, 2010Welcome the new king of pop! A completely different breed from 808. Tracks such as power and lost in the world show that kanye is back in career best jesus walks territory. This really is an artist who is willing to take risks and evolve. hate him or love him but lets be honest the man is a genius.

Nov 24, 2010My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is the best album in 2010, (for a little better than Eminem's Recovery). All of the songs are just great. I was expecting this for a long time, and I couldn't imagine so good album. everything less than 10 would be stupid.
-
Nov 24, 2010ALBUM OF THE YEAR! this is pure "Ye" brilliance here yo! pure genius! the rhymes are pure and flowing, and funny as hell! all the hype that basically built this album really pulled through and has given us something soo amazing i would like to thank yeezy for this 10/10 album... i love it!

Nov 23, 2010Kanye West is officially back. One of his best pieces of work ever. No one is currently in his league. The album is well crafted and it is ART. Art, like only Kanye can do it. The production is superb and on point. The masterpiece, classic and Kanye's Thriller!!!! Well done!
