    There's nothing to say about this album that hasn't been said already. It is the greatest album of all time.

    Best song on the album "Hell Of A Life"

    mediano para bom, muitas tracks boas porém muitas esquecidas. A produção do Kanye junto com Mike Dean acertou em cheio no álbum, entretanto músicas como gorgeous e dark fantasy deixou a desejar nos vocais. Músicas como Hell of a Life e So Appalled vieram somente para encher linguiça e Monster não acertou nas features. Power, All of The Lights, Devil in a New Dress e Runaway são incríveis,mediano para bom, muitas tracks boas porém muitas esquecidas.

    The cumulation of Kanye's best. One of the greatest hiphop pieces out there and easily the best album of 2010. Is it worth picking up this piece? Yes.

    Masterpiece. The pinnacle of Kanye, it's wonderful and everything he is and how he gives it to us is so nice, to a point romantic and at the same time possessive, I don't know how to explain myself but wow.

    The most outstanding album of ALL TIME any other similar album is just a copy. Even if you don't like the album you should be impressed just because of the minimum 5000 hours Kanye put onto every track

    低谷之下的kanye不屈服沉沦的音乐市场，拿出这张让人惊叹之作证明他的实力，华丽的采样配上各明星优秀的表现（点名表扬麻辣鸡），美中不足之处就是感觉有些曲子过长，

    This album might be the most maximalist album to have come out during the 2010s decade has aged like fine wine. Dark Fantasy is an all time great introduction track and Power has some of the best production I’ve ever heard. Overall, what makes this album get the acclaim it gets is the production. Just an absolute masterpiece of an album. 10/10

    With this album, Kanye West proves the strong strength of a talented person, and the bold attempt of mixing and matching samples of multiple genres but so fitting makes this album still establish a wonderful work in the history of hip-hop music.

    absolutely amazing. One of the greatest albums ever produced. The production is amazing and the sounds top quality. Lyrics are not Kanye's best but overall this is his best work.

    A beautifully crafted album, Kanye West has outdone himself. This isn't just hip-hop, this is an emotional, amazing piece of art. Kanye should always remain the greatest artist of the 21st century.

    This album is amazing, BUT it has been growing tf off of me for the last couple of years. I feel guilty to admit that some tracks just don't appeal to me anymore like Gorgeous and Dark Fantasy. Still, an amazing record, and I hope that my love for this album will come back.

    definitly 10/10. Sampling in this album is decent, when i listen songs like Blame Game or Runaway, i feel vibe, like when Kanye was recording this album on Hawaii.

    Meh, 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.

    Wow... this has to be one of the best albums I've listened to recently. Every aspect seems to be so well thought-out. When it comes to production, Kanye West is one of the best. The first five songs are so good that I can't really think of a better track run. The songwritting was good too but there were times when I felt like he was just throwing words around.

    But the thing that I loved the most aboout this album is the transition from "Lost In The World" to "Who Will Survive In America". I was dancing all the time until the song suddenly stopped, and that's when I realized the album was over. The transition was so smooth... ugh, I loved it.

    this is the magnum opus by Mr. west
    he's defined rap music once again with this album
    this is nonstop 13 song banger list
    from amazing lyrics to powerful sampling and uses of features
    this album does define rap music and has alot influence to the upcoming gen
    there are no skips except the advertisements
    and yeah its not a 6 its a flat 10 for me

    Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is one of the greatest rap albums of all time with excellent songs like Power and All of the Lights.

    2nd best Kanye album and as many calls his "magnum opus" with it being a big step up from an already great previous album and is probably the best comeback story in hip hop history with many classic 10/10 tracks like dark fantasy, gorgeous, power, all of the lights, monster, runaway, lost in the world & devil in a new dress

    Amazing album by Kanye West. Very emotional and beautiful. Ye tells about misunderstunding him by society and media.

    quien es kanye west?
    para el ciego, es la luz
    para el hambriento, es el pan
    para el enfermo, es la cura
    para el solitario, es el compañero
    para el triste, es la alegría
    para el prisionero, es la libertad
    para el pobre, es el tesoro
    para el deudor, es el perdón

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