This is Kanye's most criticaly aclaimed album. Winning a grammy for best rap album of the year and considered by many people to be his magnum opus. Nearly every song on this album is perfect and is an amazing album.
This is Kanye's best song not my favorite song but it's his best. It is an amazing song that goes into why Kanye is what Kanye is and also features and amazing verse from Pusha T. I could go very in-depth on this song but I'll just leave it there
This 1st Kanye song I ever heard and one of his most popular. He raps incredibly on this album and Rihaana's chorus is amazing here. He also get's Drake on this song not to have a verse but for backround vocals just at the end of the song
This is Kanye's best intro from any album. It has an amazing sample and great lyrics and set's the tone of this album very, very well
This song is the only bad one on the album and when I say it's bad its bad. It is a very slow song and the beat is also really bad the song runs too long and the features don't add anything of substance to the album.
"I just needed time alone
With my own thoughts
Got treasures in my mind
but couldn't open up my own vault
My childlike creativity, purity and honesty
Is honeslty being crowded by these grown thoughts
Reality is catching up with me
Taking my inner child
I'm fighting for custody"
Quote from Power
"Never was much of a romantic
I could never take the intimacy
And I know it did damage
'Cause the look in your eyes is killin' me
I guess then you at advantage
'Cause you could blame me for everything"
