  2. I'll listen to this because he's a pop-culture figure that has fascinated me for almost a decade now and I'm capable of doing so without making excuses for all of the extremely dumb and harmful shit he's done over the past five-plus years. If the album has anything thoughtful to say about what he's been through or the things he's said/done, I'd be interested to hear it. Doesn't mean I'm going to like it and it definitely doesn't mean I'm going to praise it.

    the list of people who still work with Chris Brown in 2021 is extremely disappointing.

    my guess is that this will be his best record since Pablo (I know, relatively low bar). But it’s pretty strange to have a Kanye album coming out with like……no bullshit immediately preceding it (by immediately I mean like the month or two prior). Obviously there are about 2 lifetimes of previous shit to discuss, but a quiet rollout without public tinkering (art/tracklisting/tantrums) is almost surreal.

    I’ll listen of course but I honestly haven’t reached for anything Kanye since my cursory listens of JiK.

    that being said….was hoping he would at least pivot away from the Jesus talk, that appears unlikely….so ham fisted and boring.

    I'm basically expecting Jesus is King Pt 2. Great production, interesting melodies, OK vocals, terrible lyrics, shitty human

    The one song sounded like someone played the track with their car door open and the keys still in the ignition.

  18. "Follow God" and "Hands On" are the only "good" songs on JIK, although "Use This Gospel" gets points for the Clipse verse and the Kenny G feature. "Water" and "Everything We Need" are good instrumentals that are ruined by Kanye.

    Yeah there's actually a lot of interesting/solid production on a fair amount of the songs

    Hopefully Ye brought some writers in for this.
