      All his albums bang for me a different way. Like I can't sit here and say oh x album by him is the best cause it's all mood. Whatever I'm in at the moment is my heat even JIK.
      Used to be Graduation no contest back when it was out and for years after but I constantly go back and forth between Yeezus, TLOP, CD, LR, KSG as far as favorite. MBDTF is good but like he said it was an apology album so that in consideration isn't a top 5 for me from his work cause it wasn't really something He himself wanted to try to break ground with.

      @bridgingthegap the next album you guys should review is 808s and heartbreak by Kanye West. that's the next album after graduation, my favorite songs off that album are heartless, love lockdown, amazing, welcome to heartbreak ft kid Cudi. the production on that album sounds great. it's different than his first 3 albums . he used auto tune at this time around 2008 , he sang on 808s and heartbreak more than he rapped . it sounded way different than his first 3 albums . And congrats on 20k. my favorite channel that does album reviews.

    So for reference, both Bittersweet & Goodnight were bonus tracks. The regular album ends with Big Brother. 808s & Heartbreak is the next album. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is his 5th Album.

    Graduation is my fave Ye album by a landslide. Was in high school when this album came out. Listened to it a ton back then and been listening to it a ton nowadays. Nostalgia is one hell of a drug and I love it. Forever Music no doubt with this one. Flashing Lights is my fave song on this album. The strings and the synths make this song! 💙💪🏼

I’m looking forward to seeing Dad’s innocent and naive(?) view of Kanye get more complicated as you’ll go deeper into his discography.

    Great album, great reaction. Thanks for sharing your opinions with us. It’s definitely cool you and your dad can do something together like this that you both enjoy and get along. I think it’s awesome you have that special bond together. You’re lucky to have a cool dad you’re close to like that. Also side note, Stronger was my MySpace profile song for quite awhile way back in the day, so everytime someone would hear it they’d say that it would make them think of me lol. My sister and I are really close and we would listen to this album in the car and just jam out to it. She loved Good Life with T-Pain. An of course I like Good life too which is such a hit, I mean come on it’s genius T-Pain who is such a good songwriter and changed the game up bringing in a whole new sound and era of music, but it was my sisters absolute favorite on the album. This whole album is just so well done. It’s hard for me to pick a favorite because these beats are all so damn good! I have good memories associated with this album. Thanks for the nostalgia!

    If you didn't know, T-pain won the first season of the masked singer, and that same season Gladys Knight came in 3rd. It sold the concept for me because I think bias would have prevented him from winning because of the auto tune reputation, but he can sing for real.
