How Kanye West solved the music industry's problem singlehandedly

Just put out beautiful, thoughtful, gut-wrenching, ridiculously brilliant, dope tracks and even I'll go to best buy and buy it. I can't tell you how amazing My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is. I had given up on the dude after College Dropout but he's done it. He's made an album that's better than his debut.

Thoughts?

It's the best album of 2010, imo. Probably better than anything that'll come out in 2011 too.

I thought college dropout was amazing and i still play it, haven't got the new one yet but from what i have heard it looks promising.

You can actually download for free a bunch of the tracks (in full) on his website to preview the album.

Pitchfork gave it a 10.0/10 which is the first time I have ever seen them do that.
Full review here.

Chris Rock's little thing at the end of Blame Game is in itself worth $10. One of the funniest things I've ever heard.

First thing I do when I get home is download this album.

My Thoughts exactly on college dropout. Second album was ok, the rest..... you get my picture.

I like Kanye and if this is as good as people are saying I'll be buying it even after free download. I've been waiting for another college dropout, hopefully he comes through on this.

Also, if you haven't seen it yet, watch his short film. Equally brilliant.

YouTube - Kanye West - Runaway (Full-length Clean)

EDIT: Find it in HD if you can, much better.
