Feb 26, 2016Instant Classic Ye is Hip Hop and with each new album he changes the genre and moves pop culture to the next echelon. The Life of Pablo is no exception nearly all tracks shine in their own way and move along the story of the album (Top 5:Real Friends, Pt. 1, Pt. 2, No more parties in LA, and Facts).

Apr 10, 2016there are a couple of good songs but not enough of them it make it his best album. It tells a lot that i don't think its a great Kanye album but an amazing general album.

Mar 9, 2016Yeezy just doesn't stop. Keep dropping great albums and revolutionizing hip-pop. The album bumps hard! Both new and old kanye are geniuses!!! If you don't like kanye as a person ...cool but, give him props for his artistry

Mar 24, 2016Epic. Brilliant album. Ground breaking but beautiful to listen to. Very enjoyable.
I think the reason people dont like this album is because they dont like kanye. If anyone else put this out it would be loved by all. -
Apr 4, 2016Can't understand how Kanye can release such an incredible album with all this sh#t around his name, best Kanye's album since MBDTF. Consistent from the start to the end.

Apr 3, 2016Yeezus has done it again. For people who understand his music, it's like medicine to the ears. The production across the entire project is so smooth and the layering is flawless. Just listen and appreciate this masterpiece... Forget about Ye's somewhat arrogant attitude and just focus on what you can hear. Superb. 10/10.

Apr 10, 2016The album was well made even though it contained 3 fillers. But even those fillers had meaning to them. This album is definitely not as good as MBDTF but it has a few bangers and it displays West's emotion well. His choice for featuring artists was good, too.

May 18, 2016one of the best albums ever recorded. Kanye is a genius.
I invented Kanye
There wasn't any Kanyes
And now I look and look around
And there's so many Kanyes -

May 1, 2016I like Kanye West, and the album is pretty good, but It's far from a "808s & Heartbreak", his best project. It's a excelent album but I think he rushed the release and not complete as it should.
-
Jul 28, 2016In what state must a person be to make an album like this. Messy, disjointed, provocative, sometimes cheap, rarely disappointing, always mad. Always genius..

Sep 7, 2016Easily my favourite album of his! Took a while to get used to it & the way it was released was annoying as I don't subscribe to TIDAL/Spotify so I had to find each up date on PB but 100% worth it once I got it. Every track is good with the excpetion of Pt. 2 (Panda is annoying asf).

May 31, 2016This is one of the best albums ever by Kanye, an extremely divergent and weird masterpiece that has a lot of gospel in it and a controversial reference to Taylor Swift but is a really magnificent album! Promise! This album will go down in history as one of the best rap albums ever!

Jul 25, 2016Majority of the songs on this album consist of other artists work/ songs and add on's, with Kanye West commentating with his verses. Now, some of the songs sounds pretty good ( for example Famous, Pt 2) and obviously there are strong connotations and underlining meanings within the songs that are incredibly powerful. Overall my thoughts are that this album is one of his worst.

Oct 2, 201768/100. I really like the first half of the album, but the second half got me kinda bored. The production is amazing, almost as good as the 2010 My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. But the lyrics are weak and lazy for me. A good album, but not really a fire one.

Oct 22, 2016amazing album he really did a great job with lyrics and production.wow
i cantw wait for the next album because i know it will be even better yassssssss -
Nov 29, 2016Kanye puts together a chopped soul & gospel mixtape of sorts with help from lots of rappers he **** with, even Max B. He keeps the sound very patchwork sounding and minimalistic. Favorite songs Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1, Feedback, Waves, and Fade

Apr 6, 2017Kanye has once again proven himself to be a dominant force in the hip hop scene. Pristine flow and production that will take back to the early days of hip hop. Not his best as I will say it is a little lengthy but still a fun listen.

Apr 6, 2016There is plenty here to suggest that West's magic has not entirely left him, but as a statement of art or true intent, this is a significant misstep from an artist with so much to praise.
-
Apr 1, 2016There is much to be admired here, rather less to be enjoyed.

UncutMar 22, 2016For better or worse, no-one else is making records quite like this. [May 2016, p.82]
