Review: Kanye West is an Atlanta, Georgia rapper who a lot of people don't know much about. So today I looked back into his universally acclaimed 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. The album is his fifth studio album. The first track Dark Fantasy shows why Kanye is so loved. It's about how people often view celebrity life as "fun and easy" even though it's not. It has amazing production by Kanye West and RZA. Gorgeous featuring Kid Cudi is all about racism in America and how "Jerome gets more time than Brandon". The production is very simple yet powerful. Power is a work of art that features powerful production. At the end of the song he contemplates ending his life while he's at the peak of his career. All of The Lights has an beautiful but sad interlude performed by Elton John and Chris Chorney with a piano and a cello. All Of The Lights itself is a song about Kanye Wests quarrels with life where he talks about divorces, domestic abuse and other serious topics. The song has generally pop-ish production however it still has very good production. Monster is an energetic song that features performances from Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Pusha T, Rick Ross and Bon Iver. So Appalled is a deep insight into celebrity life and how everyone should just stand up and say, forget everyone and everything! Devil In A New Dress is a song about Kanye West using familiar religions to think all sorts of nasty things about a girl.
Blame Game featuring John Legend is a beautiful song about Kanye's relationship with a girl/fame. Lost In The World is a powerful track about the two sides of Kanye's relationship. This album in my opinion is one of Kanye's best albums to date, it has twists and it opens up the life of a celebrity.
Rating: 10/10
