IMHO i think its the College Dropout cuz he sounded alot more grittier and more raw.... like a dude that was trying to make a name for himself and he did. Late Registration was tight too, and IMO Graduation was weak. Any other thoughts...
if college drop out didnt have the annoying skits, and some different song choices, it would be my favorite... but I think I like Graduation the best.
my apologies, I will concede that was an unnecessary post. Everyone has their own tastes. Please continue on with Kanye conversation
Definitly no question its College Dropout. He actually has flow on that album and is making gritty tracks. After that he was making music that would be accepted by more people like trying to make the club anthems.
I think you need to give Graduation another try. The reason why Kanye is so successful is that each album is different, and he refuses to be confined to a certain sound. Graduation is completely different than any other shit out right now, he's way ahead of his time. Who else has old punk/rock samples layered with synths??? Try listenin again with an open mind and lemme know what you think, cuz I think Graduation is crazy.
