I think it is by far his worst album. The production is solid, but the autotune thing just ruins it.

My rankings of Kanye albums
MBDTF
CD
Watch the Throne
Late Registration
CS













Graduation














808s

Individually, yeah it's definitely his worst.

College Dropout
MBDTF
Late Registration

WTT
Graduation



808
CS

Watch the Throne was my favorite. Dark Fantasy would probs be 2nd.

MBDTF and CD are a toss up for me, they are both classics, I just feel that the former sounded more complete

I can understand that, it has a more raw, gritty, and modern sound. College Dropout is my all-time favorite album but MBDTF is definitely a close 2nd haha.

Honestly, I don't think that CS will have much lasting power the way that nearly all of Kanye's albums have had. 808's for me has had surprising lasting power for me, that's why it's not so low on my list.

I really don't consider CS a kanye album. Everyone in GOOD is working on their own solo albums. It just seemed to rushed. Plus they kept pushing it back.

yea the reason I don't rate it lower is because it is a compilation album. And if I extracted just the songs that had Yeezy on them, it is like a 7.5 to 8 for me

Yeah it's not, but I was just including albums that Yeezy has ever really been on.
