^ Also, for those interested, someone posted these alternate/demo tracks from Yeezus sessions on Reddit yesterday. Some good stuff in there.

Gave Life of Pablo a spin for the time in a while last weekend. Still love it, really holds up imo. After his mom died I feel he created a trilogy with a Thin White Duke- esque persona in Yeezus. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy being the conception, (No one man should have all that power) Yeezus being actualization (I am a God) and Life of Pablo is the end of the arc, where Yeezus is broke, fallen out of grace with friends amd family, and the album is set within his dream, exploring his subconscious and psyche with word associations and what not. (A la Roger Waters' Pros and Cons of Hitchiking) That last one may sound particularly funky, but listen to it with that theory in mind and you'll pick up on lyrics, flow, and production moments that support that theory. The beginning of Ultra Light Beam even sounds like he's slowly nodding off, and thus you enter his dream. Anyways, I probably sound crazy but I like to look at it that way. Excited to give the new material a listen.

Also, does anybody else here feel like Kanye was deliberately trying to knock Dave Matthews off his #1 album streak with Kids See Ghosts? He can be such a fucking villain I'm so glad Come Tomorrow beat him.

Kids See Ghosts is a better album, and I think Come Tomorrow is the best studio thing DMB has done since BTCS. Ye has been knocking out of the park with these latest albums, minus the new Nas album, which is hot garbage. Not exactly to Ye's fault since the production is great, it's just not good.





I've been listening to a lot of Halo music lately, Martin O'Donnell is a genius

It's just a dull album. Nothing really caught my ear and the hooks and singing are really bad. For a Nas record it's not exactly something to write home about lyrically either.

In case anyone missed it in DMBc, here is the Pitchfork review of Come Tomorrow: https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums...come-tomorrow/
