worst tracks: guilt trip, i'm in it

made this because it reminded me of the janitor account. btw @yeezus. if you see this, i wanna see you break your "YEEZUS" comment streak: life of pablo is better than this in almost every way, and saint pablo is his best ever song, convince me otherwise.

if this blows up, check out my profile, i got more album reviews to piss you off. I also take requests, hmu if you want me to review one.

this album review is gonna piss off a certain yeezus fan, right?

I've been to a show for ye on his yeezus tour, and honestly it was one of the best shows i've ever been to. But, this is an album review though, and it isn't his best work.

It's insanely obvious that the best word to describe this record is 'abrasive.' It's insanely experimental, it's so inconsistent in production and vocals that it compliments the style ye chose to roll with the vibe on this record. You can't say that about a lot of experimental albums as a whole. They use weird ass noises to make great sounds and beats. You'd think anybody couldn't get away with throwing a bunch of weird ass noises on a track and expect it to work, but here we are. Mr. West absolutely gives us the level of talent you need to make a good experimental album.

I love the aesthetic of the album, and there's great songs with here, but they're coupled with songs that are hard skips. The misses on this album are good examples of what happens when either the weird vocals, questionable features, or bad production ruins everything about one song.

A good example of this is on sight. I personally grew numb to how fucking loud the first beat is, and the beat switch is literally the only redeeming part of the song. If you actually sit down and listen to what kanye says, it's batshit stupid💀. For reference, i want you to take a second thought at the 'i got her back in and put my dick in her mouth' and 'baby girl tryna get a nut, and her girl tryna give it up' line next time you listen to it.

I won't go into detail, but there's more dumb verses from ye on i'm in it and send it up. Some are obviously better than others, but these were the all the songs, including on sight, that i have big issues with. But oh boy, i think that guilt trip is just a completely underwhelming song to listen to. The sample is pitched excessively low, the beat has weird synths scattered through it, and the kid cudi feature was if not the worst on the album.

If i had to describe this album as concise as possible: creative and loud production, weird autotune, and forgettable lyricism. This is the same album where ye decided to list God as a feature. That tells you something, alright.

(why are you reading an album review on an ai chat site? tf wrong with you)
