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.

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]

Sep 17, 2012There is no question that this album is a game changer. It's Kanye West's greatest work.
