    amazing production, feels like a futuristic riot, with many soundscapes and rage-ish vocals

    Despite being the worst album out of his amazing 8 album run of great albums, it's not anywhere near a bad album. The production is unique and still sounds nice despite the experimental style.

    this album with truly groundbreaking because kanye experimented with new sounds. They have never been mixed together before. A perfect example of this is on site he had these incredibly offbeat 80s synth keyboards, and all of it mixed together perfectly a song like bound to who is completely different from any other son of Sam and it felt like it fit on an island like 808s & Heartbreak orthis album with truly groundbreaking because kanye experimented with new sounds.

I’m giving this album an 8.8 out of 10. It’s truly change the way the music industry is today with rappers like. playboi carti or uzi. I think that Kanye forever changed the music industry with this one.… Expand

    In terms of experimental exploration and pursuit of the ultimate, it is worse than the previous "My Beautiful Dark Twisted", but in terms of the most underestimated part, "Yeezus" has no less points, and even the birth time of this work is too early, it is impossible to wait until it becomes popular, it is better to stay in the care of the circle of people who know how to appreciate/love it.

    yeezus is actually one of the most experimental projects ever. Dont expect anything like any other hiphop album. its different and sonic. The songs here are superly creative and weirdly sounding on first listen.
    Tracks:
    1) On sight-funny lines,amazing sample and hardhitting production 2) Black Skinhead-very catchy and production is too good for words 3)I am a god-funny and godly 4)    yeezus is actually one of the most experimental projects ever.

    Get into artistic and chaotic mind of any artist can be dificult in the first time, but as sson as you hear many more times you understand the ideas that builds the album. A great album with lyrics and sounds that inovates to take music in another direction. A Masterpiece.

    my favorite Kanye album with the loud bass-hitting tracks like blood on the leaves, guilt trip, black skinhead, on sight and new slaves the album has a few corny lines but the whole album is a great way to put in perspective how grand Kanye's discography is

    I can't lie - I did not enjoy this initially. It really grew on me eventually however, and I gotta say there's nothing really like this LP. I love it. My favorite songs are Black Skinhead, I Am A God, New Slaves, Hold My Liquor, I'm In It, Blood On The Leaves, Bound 2.

    A fantastic experimental noise album with some really nice breaks in between. The perfect album to introduce your weird dad to hip-hop with. While not an essential hip-hop record, you are surely missing out if you haven't heard it. It's a grower to be sure, but if you listen to it more than once you might grow to love it. We keep it 300 like the romans.

    Um dos álbuns mais incríveis e distintos que já vi em minha vida, a qualidade sonora impecável, sem dúvida os dos melhores trabalhos do Ye, o meu rapper favorito de todos!

    An album that feels ugly and raw, and that is what makes it beautiful. Ye puts (again) everything he's got in this work.

    Fantastic harsh beats. Minimalistic yet huge, Beautiful yet disgusting, off the wall crazy yet touching. Perfect length no filler. Incredible piece of art.

    Went from being disappointed in Kanye for making this to absolutely loving it. It takes a few listens to fully appreciate the album. Not his best work tho ngl. The lyrics are pretty bad that's why it's not a ten

    Este álbum es muy especial.
    Quitando de lado alguna letra que otra y el egocentrismo de Kanye, este álbum tiene un sonido muy raro pero que a mi me encanta.
    Si a alguno no le gusta es totalmente razonable. Para mi, es uno de los mejores proyectos de Kanye.

    This album is incredible and is my favorite album of all time. If you showed this album to a person from 100 years ago they would melt into a puddle. The production is absolutely mad. There is nothing bad I can say about this album.

    His concerns are serious--consumerism, race, fame, relationships--but he rarely addresses them with the craft or focus they deserve. [Sep 2013, p.66]

    Contradiction incarnate, Yeezus is Kanye's most Kanyeish LP yet. [Sep 2013, p.103]

    Nasty, brutish, short, and wholly compelling, Yeezus begs only one question: where next? [Sep 2013, p.89]
