I don't think jay z is fading lol. He hasn't put out a bomb album yet. Of course he will always be relevant and elevated because of Beyoncé. Rihanna is doing fine also. Many people shut up after work has been performing past the initial launch. Plus, hits or not, the album is by far her best overall piece of work. Kanye is just Kanye. Everything he says isn't even shocking any more lol plus his album is very solid as well. I don't think any of them are in any sort of troubles with all this tidal stuff.

He really seems mentally ill.

He really seems mentally ill. He really does. That's why I can't even get a good kii from his antics anymore.

I don't know about y'all but I think this album is FIRE. It really sounds like he took different sounds from each of his past albums and made something new. I agree with some reviewers that lyrically the album may not be up to par with his standard but the ambiance, sound and texture on this is everything. Really hoping he physically releases this. Need if for my vinyl collection.

I'm really liking this album!!!! Need a few more listens to get acquainted with the tracks but this seems like a really great album to either zone to, drive real fast to, work out to, etc.

Kanye, if mainstream sites don't comment on black music, then how will black music or its message ever reach a wider audience? And more so, if mainstream sites cut out black music, then isn't that racism? He's a mess.

He's begging the likes of Mark Zuckerberg (LOL!) for money but won't release his album for purchase? OK. Kanye, I would love to help you out by contributing between $10-$15 via Best Buy so holla at a brutha!

I'm still confused on my thoughts on this album
I like: Ultralight Beam, Pt. 2, Famous, Feedback, Waves, Real Friends, Wolves, 30 Hours, No More Parties in LA, Fade I don't like: Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1, Highlights, FACTS Cute but use it for a mixtape: Low Lights, Freestyle 4, I Love Kanye, the voicemail Jury's still out: FML
Almost every song on the album has moments (at least) of greatness and moments (at least) where I cringe.

I've only listened once but so far my reaction is: how did this shit get 83 on metacritic? I've liked or loved nearly everything Kanye has done so far, including Yeezus, but this is something I can't wrap my head around yet. But I've only listened to it once so far and that's never enough.

He tweeted on Sunday that he was going to "fix" 'Wolves', so I believe this is official.

Yo, he's so so so unsure about this. I'm assuming the physical is going to be way different.

A part of his SNL meltdown has leaked and this man needs therapy. Some Eat, Pray, Love therapy where he goes off on his own spiritual journey because he is crashing fast. The Taylor mention is going to plummet his stock.

I found a good version that actually has Fade and not just Facts twice. It sounds even better on my computer speakers than my headphones, which makes no sense but OK. Still loving this album. Trying my best not to have it outrank Late Registration but it's inching up there.

Maybe he will, I might as well download Tidal. Also, he needs to just take a break, he's everywhere where he doesn't want to be.

The Taylor mention is going to plummet his stock. Someone needs to give Kanye a major reality check. Plus Taylor Swift name drop just added more fuel to the already burning fire. Here's a link to the SNL backstage audio: m.961kiss.com/onair/the-morning-freak-show-46988/kanye-wests-snl-meltdown-audio-leaks-14393221/

He seems like he is really losing his mind but the album is incredible.

I wonder what the artists appearing on the album think of all this mess. They'll never get any money out of this

I love Kanye's music, but he's really going off the deep end and it's led me to not even have interest in the album.
He's not wrong about Swift being fake, though.

Damn, those tweets. He's really spiraling. I'm seeing glimpses similar to the lead up to Britney and Mariah's breakdowns.
