Oct 9, 2022Kanye 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.
-
Feb 20, 2011This is truly my favourite album of this year. My favourite song would be Monster with Bon Iver, Jay-Z and Nicki Minaj. This is my favourite album of all-time and I would 110% recommend this to any rap fan.
-
May 13, 2011There are a lot of great tracks on here, "Monster", "Devil in a New Dress" and "Lost in the World" are the best tracks. I could see this years from now still being a good listen but it's not perfect. Tracks "Blame Game" and "Power" are incredibly listenable but are definitely the weakest tracks.

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!
-
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.
-
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

Nov 23, 2010dont see what all the hype is about to be honest...
-
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!
-
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.
-
Sep 26, 2021A genius look inside of West’s mentality the leaves the listener simply mesmerized by the great samples, beautiful lyrics, and splendid everything. This album leaves me speechless, it’s a masterpiece in every single way.
-
Aug 19, 2023There'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" -

Jan 23, 2020AMAZING album! amazing underrated lyricism and amazing production and features, some small missteps like the blame game skit but other than that a perfect album
-
Apr 3, 2021Now, I don't think this is a flawless Masterpiece and concider it to be one of Kanye's weaker projects, but it is still an incredible album. Kanye is such an artist, that even his weaker albums are 8/10s. I can completely see why people love it to death.
-
May 17, 2021This is my favorite hip hop album ever. If you don't love this album, something's wrong with you.

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.
-
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!
-
Apr 10, 2020kanye’s best album and top 5 of all time. masterpiece is the only way to put this simply. love it so so much.

Aug 29, 2021Amazing poetry that kills and then gives birth again and kills again. This is the definition of a "successful album"
-
May 22, 2023A classic legendary album, every song is fye and it is quite literally the definition of perfect. favorite song: Lost in the World
-
Dec 25, 2021Kanye West's magnum opus. Shows the world what that man is able to do when he is inspired. A magnificent mixture of styles and chores which are amazing makes this one of the best albuns of all time.

Feb 27, 2013If this album was weird to you at first, listen to it again. And again, until you understand that this is epic as hell. Epic as hell in every sense possible.
-
Feb 6, 2014This album is definitely one of the best albums of my generation. Great lyrics, production and features on the album. Kanye brings his talent to the table when it came to songs like "Gorgeous", "Runaway", "Hell Of A Life" & "So Appalled". The production is marvelous. It makes me appreciate Kanye's work a lot more. This is one of my favorite albums of all time. This album is a must listen.
-
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

Oct 13, 2020Has some of the best Kanye songs of all time, such as POWER, Devil in a New Dress, Dark Fantasy, and Runaway, but also a few songs bring it down, such as Blame Game and H*ll Of a Life/
-
Mar 6, 2023Masterpiece. 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.

Mar 29, 2014For everyone joking around Yeezus, I simply point to this album as a true example of Kanye's gift of making music. This album, to this day is pure brilliance with great beats and a powerful messages that convey the artist that Kanye West truly is.

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.
-
Jul 7, 2017Everything about this album is perfect and every song is amazing. This may be my favorite album of all time. I have nothing bad to say about it at all.
-
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.

Mar 28, 2022By far Ye's best album. Amazing production as always, an outstanding redemption for Ye when he absolutely needed it. Sadly the last 4 tracks, while being alright, simply aren't nearly as good as the beginning and middle of the album, brings it down from perfect.
-
Jul 18, 2023Words can't describe this album whenever i listen too it i fell like it it goes by too fast when i listen too it i just love it favorite track is Blame Game
-
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 22, 2010This is beyond Hip Hop, this is something more. Kanye West just raised the bar for an entire genre and proved he has a magnificent capacity and knowledge of crafting music that has been unseen by anyone who calls themselves a rapper. I feel sorry for anyone who had a rap album this year, because everything, absolutely everything pales in comparison to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

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.
-
Jan 28, 2012Epic! West was able to incorporate your wounded soul in each one of these songs. Recovery really fancy, after all this pretentious Rapper lived. Unmissable and engaging!
-
May 10, 2013The perfect album. Simply put. Nothing more. Nothing less. This is art. Not hip-hop. Not any genre. Just art. A piece of art that we're lucky Kanye only made us pay $9.99 for it. This album is worth at least $100. But I digress. Its beautiful. In any way.

Feb 3, 2021This album has some of the most grand, luscious, and expensive production I have ever heard on an album. Throughout a well composed set of instrumentals, Kanye gives us some of his insights, lavish lifestyle, and personal struggles. My favorite tracks are Devil in a New Dress, Runaway, POWER, Dark Fantasy, and Gorgeous.
-
Mar 17, 2022Ye's best work, in which he puts every thought of his. A beautiful masterpiece that changed hip hop history.
-
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 -
Jan 10, 2022Un álbum igual de emocional que 808s.
La producción es excelente, la letra también, y lo que te cuenta este álbum mientras lo escuchas es algo mágico.
Para mi, su mejor álbum, y uno de los mejores álbumes que he escuchado en mi vida. -

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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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?
-
Sep 28, 2011Kanye West is a musicall genious, every thing this man touches turns to gold every song he gets on is a musicall masterpiece. he is deffenitlly one of my favorite rappers of all time. This album is his latest solo installment and has that sound that blows the radio in your car up.

Jul 11, 2013Arguably the pinnacle of modern hip-hop, Kanye's production and creativity have reached unseen heights in MBDTF. Seriously, give it a listen, and keep giving it the attention it deserves. This album is damn good.
-
Jan 18, 2014Kanye West at his prime. This album is a masterpiece on every aspect. This instant classic has raised the bar for hip hop by revolutionizing the genre.

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.
