What's your favorite Kanye West Album and why?
-
My personal favorite is [i]Yeezus[/i]. It's a 40 minute album with such depth that it begs you to relisten and relisten to catch the intricacies that you missed, because it keeps moving along even if you aren't ready for it too. It's the most emotionally relatable to me, personally, and I think it's very inspirational. The production is simply out of this world too. "Guilt trip" literally makes me feel like I'm in a spaceship. For those who don't know, Kanye had taken a hiatus from rap following [i]Watch The Throne[/i] in order to study fashion. He faced hardship in trying to break into the world of design, because he was a celebrity. He felt boxed in and marginalized, and this album was his response. They wouldn't allow him in the building, so instead he had the song "New Slaves" projected on the side of buildings across the world. I think it's a great story, especially now that he's finally got his chance to expand, and he's released multiple fashion lines and shoes, with children's clothes, jewelry, Yeezy stores, and home decor in planning. This album is a statement, if there are outside forces not letting you achieve your goals, you have to force your way into the door and take them yourself.
