New Kanye Album


From the cover itself its very clear Kanye West started with the theme of "art".  The Beginning of the album starts with the song Dark Fantasy which samples a poem spoken by Niki Minaj then comes in with a singing sample and drops right into Kanye killing a beat with the choral samples coming in and out of music.  The album features not only a multitude of modern day famous musician but includes musical interludes and even a spoken part by Chris Rock which is supposed to imitate the boyfriend of Kanye's ex girlfriend and his thankfulness that Kanye taught her how to treat a real man.  The album is in my opinion unmatched by anything that has ever come out in the rap genre there is even a point when Rick Ross comes in after a minute long guitar solo.  I theorize that the music world is slowly diverging back to including real talented music and will bring the rap genre with it, but no matter what Kanye West just changed the rap game and I believe it is a very good direction.
