  1. Anyone got any specific training programmes they swear by? I've got a solid 2 months of 0 to do, and I feel it makes sense to get back into shape. I've been training for 3 years as a rower, leaving me really weirdly unbalanced. I'd really like to develop my chest

    He was a inspirational teenager who had gone through a lot in life both good and bad, he had both good songs and retarded ones, I really enjoyed the good ones but as a person I loved him cuz he wasn't afraid to speak up and he had some really inspirational speeches on his instagram lives, he had beef with so many rappers like migos, drake etc so I'm not suprised his dead probably migos.

    Really sad on my side

    Alright, this opinion is actually the reason I wanted a thread like this to exist.

    Yeezus is Kanye Wests 2nd Best Project.

    Kanye's 2013 Project is definitely his most polarizing project some clear evidence of this would be Pitchforks 2013 Readers Post Poll, the results of this poll revealed that the project was voted "The Most Overrated Album of the Year" and "The Most Underrated Album of the Year".

    Kanye's production on this album was absolutely phenomenal, but I feel like it takes a certain type of music listener to appreciate it's maximalism, the production is overwhelming and that's exactly what Yeezy wanted it to be an overwhelming polarizing beautiful mess. It sounds as if Kanye took what he learned from MBDTF (his best project arguably) and 808's & Heartbreaks and completely distressed it, the features add to this attack of your ears perfectly, He chose people like Kid Cudi and Frank Ocean with soul-chilling voices to blend perfectly in the in your face production. Take a song like "I Am A God", where he raps about Loyalty, Respect, Threesomes and of course fucking Crossaints he does this with such urgency and aggression, the song is littered with deafening screams that are only able to stop when Kanye stops. In Kanye's mind being a God sounds stressful as fuck.

    TL;DR GIVE YEEZUS A TRY TAKE A DIFFERENT APPROACH

     

    I feel like me just NT'ing this is unfair. The thing to remember about Yeezus is so much of the sound is Ruck Rubin's, including how acidic(?) it sounds. Kanye is ridiculously creative but it's also increasingly impossible to tell how much is him, and how much is the absolute throng of producers who orbit every single track he touches.

     

    Still an amazing album though
