I'll wait for the actual album to come out before listening to what sounds like a crappy steam with an Apple e-mail alert thrown in, but I'm seeing "Facts" is on the album and "No More Parties in LA" is not, which can only be a bad omen. "Facts" is pretty dreadful and "Parties" pretty enjoyable, throw in the 19 album title changes and low expectations now on this one.

....and he's off on another epic tweet storm. This album is gonna bomb badly, if it were any good he simply would have dropped it already. Instead, hype that mediocrity.

Lol, the guy filled MSG and movie theatres across North America to watch him play the album on his phone....it's not going to bomb.
How do define bomb? For a guy who is doing everything he can to stay in the news all the time, Yeezus has sold 750,000. Which makes going after Taylor Swift, who's last album almost sold more in the opening week than Kanye's last two albums sold overall combined, sort of odd. I expect this will be his lowest selling album and weakest opening week. He's nowhere near as big a star as he thinks.

He added like 6 songs, I love all the songs he played at MSG yesterday, this album won't bomb. The hype on r/hiphopheads and KTT is absolutely ridiculous
The Following User Says Thank You to iLoveLamp For This Useful Post:
More ridiculous tweeting, blaming Chance the Rapper for this not being out, just rambling, incoherent nonsense. The more he tweets, the more convinced I am he knows this album isn't good, but he doesn't want to deal with what will be a harsh backlash. This isn't about promo or hype anymore, after the Taylor diss who doesn't know this is coming out? He's just ####ed in the head really.
Rhymefest has suggested Kanye is having serious mental/spiritual issues right now and needs some help, and I tend to agree. He's always been egotistical but marrying into that wacko family surely has not been good for his mind.

The Silversun Pickups killed last week on a live radio performance. I saw them live a couple of years ago and they are one of those bands that I think are better live than recorded.

Just finished listening to the whole Life of Pablo album.
After the first listen it's probably my 4th favourite Kanye album due to the fact it's super weak lyrically. MBDTF, Graduation, Yeezus are all better IMO.
There are still some great tracks though I really like Ultralight Beam, FML, No More Parties in LA and Facts.
