Best Kanye West album? Why?

420

When it comes to Kanye's albums, I tend to like most of his albums, even JESUS IS KING which I would say is his most out there album, but if I had to pick a favorite purely off of which album I believe had not only the best production quality and the most enjoyable songs, I'd have to pick The Life of Pablo with Yeezus in second and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy in third. I picked this album over all of his other albums as pretty much all of the songs on the album are generally memorable and I find myself going back and listening to the entire album quite frequently. I also was following this album during its production back when it was being leaked constantly (and Wolves was changing with every leak) so there is some sort of nostalgic feeling I associate with it.

Arguably The College Dropout is the best, but 808s is my personal fav cause I'm a sad boy

When Kanye said "Don't get me into my zone" I really felt it; like for once someone understood me. Like shit, Kanye you a psychic King.

You read my mind exactly.

Was abt to make a thread asking top 5 Kanye albums but i think it makes more sense to add it here:

Whats yalls top 5 favorite Kanye West albums? Heres mine
1. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
2. The Life Of Pablo
3. The College Dropout
4. Yeezus
5. KIDS SEE GHOSTS
Also I love every Kanye album so this isnt me saying the others are bad nor not close. Besides MBDTF this was hard to rank.

my ranking in ascending order would go

Jesus is King (mid)
Yeezus (very good)
808s and Heartbreak (very good)
Donda (great)
The Life of Pablo (great)
Graduation (great)
The College Dropout (great)
MBDTF (great)
Late Registration (best)

Yeezus is my hottest take even if I still think it's very good

Im not big on Kanye so take this with a grain of salt, but for me its ye. the composition of the songs expresses so much emotion and perfectly balances the pain and anger of losing innocence and childhood. I also interpret it as giving commentary on the abuse cycle. its the most emotionally vulnerable Kanye album for me, masterpiece!

The Life Of Pablo for me, the new version
CultureKing 3y
