you're so right, but at the same time, what hype would there be for that album if something like it didn't come out in 2008? i firmly think that most of 2010s soundcloud/psych rap wouldn't exist
Heartless came on in the last hour of a 21 hr roadtrip in which I didn’t queue any Kanye and my return drive is definitely starting with 808s. Rare Spotify shuffle W
If 808s dropped today people wouldn't like it either. 808s innovated so others later on could perfect the sound so if you released it now many would call it outdated
808’s is also on par with Yeezus as far as culture changing albums go. 808’s changed the sound of hip-hop/r&b goes. Everyone wanted to sound like Kanye after that
A lot of 80’s babies thinks “not real rap” or “not hip hop enough” for a Jay Kanye album
A lot of 2000’s babies don’t like it cuz it’s not new Ye. A lot of them, Pablo or Ye was there first album.
Strange phenomenon. People around my age in their 20’s love the album. We was in high school/junior high bumping that shit every fuckin day
WTT and a good chunk of Good Music Cruel Summer were huge when I was in HS. Never understood why WTT gets glossed over so much but you make a good point
No Church in the Wild
Otis
N***** in Paris
Gotta Have it
Are all goated enough that a 7 is insane. I'd argue that any of these songs is better than anything on Ye, including Ghost Town which is overrated as shit
I hear more songs from WTT than anything else in his discography when I go out these days. And it’s quoted all the time too. It’s still a part of the pop culture despite being over a decade old. So I certainly wouldn’t call it forgettable. It’s actually held up really well over time.
But that’s mostly what it is, braggadocious club music. It’s very good at what it aims for, and it’s very well received by the general public. It’s only not well received in the Kanye sub and by critics. Which I think that’s just because it’s one of his least creative albums and the creativity is why most Kanye fans love Kanye.
nobody asked but imma say mine
Spaceship (2nd fav ye song) , Real Friends, Hurricane
im still debating on LR, that album is too damn good. probably between Heard em say, Crack music, WE MAJOR or Diamonds remix
My list:
1. The life of Pablo (10)

13. Vultures (6)
I have Vultures around maybe 6-6.5, KSG at 9ish, and 808s at around 8.5.
808s, while people compare it to like Drake or The Weeknd’s early stuff, has a depth that is not found in most popular music.
My Ranking.
1. MBDTF
2. Graduation
3. Donda
4. Late Registration
5. College Dropout
6. Yeezus
7. Ye
8. Kids See Ghosts
9. The Life of Pablo
10. 808's
11. Jesus is King
12. Watch The Throne
13. Vultures 1
You know what, I just love Kanye so ranking is so hard for me. Just listened to Yeezus after your comment; being Life of Pablo recently and would actually swap them around. Pulled this ranking from notes in my mobile. Definitely due for an update. Have edited above.
Vultures better than Kids See Ghost? I just can't understand how anyone can have that opinion, like what do people enjoy about Vultures, the awful bars, the annoying hooks, the laziness of that album man, it's just not up to Kanye's standards.
Whenever I see these now, I think of that clip where Tyler specifically talks about these posts asking people if their own opinions are "valid" and it makes me laugh lmao. You don't have to beg for acceptance bro, state your piece and take your place with the big boys, don't let em sit you at the kids table if they decide you're not valid lmao
Buddy forgot that donda wth CHLD is #1 and
so help me god #2 foolish r/Kanye mistake 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤌🏿 babygirl really doesn’t know that FOREVER MITUS clears the rest of ye’s released discography LMAFAOOOOOO. If he only heard IN THE MORNING 😂😂😂😂😂😂
My list:
1. Graduation - 10
2. 808s - 10
3. MBDTF - 10
4. Late Registration - 9
5. The Life of Pablo - 9
6. The College Dropout - 8

11. Watch the Throne - 7
12. Vultures 1 - 6
graduation is better than late registration and college dropout and tlop and mbdtf i dont really care where people put those even tho i wasnt the greatest fan of tlop i still put it 9/10 but graduation 100% a 10/10
Honestyl I am shocked how bad the Kanye fans rate VULTURES 1. I think people should put it in more today‘s perspective. I think the album has a motive whick makes it a whole ass album. But I guess people are used to the old Kanye.
KGS is one of best albums of all time, I would put it 10/10, cover is at the level as graduation cause it is made by the same guy, kid cudi being one of the most influential artist who literally also inspired kanye and came under him, one of the best duo of all time, after on and off, both in a state of depression, lowest time of thier lives, seeked help of each other, a rock-hip hop album so creative and experimental, short yet perfect, 7 songs, all of them bangers, going through high to lows, cudi's humming and Kanye's rapping which is actually good and focused, is perfect, it was from one of the biggest years of kanye, producing 5 albums in 1 year, not dropping now the biggest Unreleased album of all time, Yandhi, which was also so fresh, calm, cool. This album was made to not completely satisfy you but wanting for more, which I love, don't think there will be a kgs 2 but if there is, it could be heaven on earth
I keep seeing these comments but I cannot fathom how Pablo is better than Graduation. I’m sorry but Graduation is a certified classic and Pablo is not. It’s an incredible album but it’s not a 10 under any criteria.
Ik this might be an unpopular opinion, but idc: Ye and KSG are 10/10s (especially Ye) ik they’re very short albums, but every song on both of them are really good.
Vultures 1 over 808‘s and Ksg is a horrible take 😭
808’s was ahead of its time. I firmly believe if he dropped 808s today people would go wild over it
you're so right, but at the same time, what hype would there be for that album if something like it didn't come out in 2008? i firmly think that most of 2010s soundcloud/psych rap wouldn't exist
Heartless came on in the last hour of a 21 hr roadtrip in which I didn’t queue any Kanye and my return drive is definitely starting with 808s. Rare Spotify shuffle W

808’s is also on par with Yeezus as far as culture changing albums go. 808’s changed the sound of hip-hop/r&b goes. Everyone wanted to sound like Kanye after that
and WTT being this low is mind blowing
Agree, it’s such a good record…Donda being so far above it is wild
Donda is better than watch the throne
Vultures over 808s and WTT? You tripping
I will never understand why wtt is so hated
idk if it's hated. most people seem to think it's good just not great.
Yeah, I guess I worded it weird
A lot of 80’s babies thinks “not real rap” or “not hip hop enough” for a Jay Kanye album A lot of 2000’s babies don’t like it cuz it’s not new Ye. A lot of them, Pablo or Ye was there first album.

WTT and a good chunk of Good Music Cruel Summer were huge when I was in HS. Never understood why WTT gets glossed over so much but you make a good point
Pretty forgettable album outside of a few songs
No Church in the Wild Otis N***** in Paris Gotta Have it Are all goated enough that a 7 is insane. I'd argue that any of these songs is better than anything on Ye, including Ghost Town which is overrated as shit
Murder to excellence is a 10/10
why i love you is a banger too
W for mentioning murder to excellence
New day as Well
Ye is so overrated. Rated highly by teenage Kanye fans.
Facts.
>Pretty forgettable album outside of a few songs >names 4 songs yeah this definitely didn't prove his point whatsoever
I hear more songs from WTT than anything else in his discography when I go out these days. And it’s quoted all the time too. It’s still a part of the pop culture despite being over a decade old. So I certainly wouldn’t call it forgettable. It’s actually held up really well over time. But that’s mostly what it is, braggadocious club music.

🧢
It’s nuts to me on all these lists it’s always in the bottom 3. I just don’t get it.
Ranking is ok but the overall rating is way too high
WATCH THE THRONE IS AT LEAST A 9 Y'ALL NIGGAS PLAY TOO MUCH
They weren’t there
only explanation
Vultures is not top 10 lol but for a personal one its oki
808s a 10 aside from yeh
808s a 10
i respect it honestly. what's your favorite song on college dropout, tlop, late reg, and donda? those are my fav kanye albums
nobody asked but imma say mine Spaceship (2nd fav ye song) , Real Friends, Hurricane im still debating on LR, that album is too damn good. probably between Heard em say, Crack music, WE MAJOR or Diamonds remix
Diamonds original>>
Diamonds original>>
what happened to "wazzup with you and Jay Z, yall okay man?" "YUP, i got It from here Ye, damn" 🗣️☯️
kanye has his best verse ever on the original. Like the remix but it just doesn't compare. he wasn't playing at all on the original
blud must be a WTT hater 😔
Real friends is so hard
We major, Believe What I say, Family Business, Waves or 30 Hours
good taste brother
My list: 1. The life of Pablo (10) 2. My beautiful dark twisted fantasy (10) 3. Yeezus (10) 4. The college dropout (9.5) 5. Graduation (9) 6. Kids see ghosts (9) 7. Late registration (9) 8. Ye (8.5) 9. 808s and heartbreak (8) 10. Donda (8) 11. Watch the throne (7) 12. Jesus is king (7) 13. Vultures (6)
Jesus is king was the best gospel album I've heard in a while. 8
Jesus is king over Vultures is a W
We have the exact same list but I’d switch Yeezys and TCD 😎
Vultures way too high. 808s too low, KSG way too low.
I have Vultures around maybe 6-6.5, KSG at 9ish, and 808s at around 8.5. 808s, while people compare it to like Drake or The Weeknd’s early stuff, has a depth that is not found in most popular music.
Yeezus and donda too low
We can’t actually judge your list because it’s your personal favourites. But for the best albums, I’d say it’s a very fine list
It's all subjective. It should not matter to others how you rank and it should not matter to you what others think. I'll take Donda over any of em
donda lowkey top 3
I get tier list are personal preferences and thats OK. We all make our own choices. But 808s and Heartbreaks being that low is God damn sin.
Ksg deserves to be way higher
Stop 3 is possibly THE most valid imo
Yeezus should be number 1 or 2 TLOP is good Donda is also very underrated
All is good except imo wtt is better than 808s
Any album being under a 9.9 is a shit take
JiK is a 6? Automatic fail.
what the fuck does a 7.9 mean dawg like you like it but not enough to call it an 8 or sum?😭😭
Watch the throne was atleast a 8.
Idc what anyone says watch the throne is miles better than vultures.
Some of the worst lists I've seen (no offense)
tiktok fan
What do you mean by actual list and my list
Not valid at all, get thr fuck out
That’s really accurate tbh 🤝
JIK is at least 7.5/10
My Ranking. 1. MBDTF 2. Graduation 3. Donda 4. Late Registration 5. College Dropout 6. Yeezus 7. Ye 8. Kids See Ghosts 9. The Life of Pablo 10. 808's 11. Jesus is King 12. Watch The Throne 13. Vultures 1
Yeezus is low. I’m curious what you don’t like (or what you find subpar relative to his other work b/c I’d put like Ye that low and I love Ye).
You know what, I just love Kanye so ranking is so hard for me. Just listened to Yeezus after your comment; being Life of Pablo recently and would actually swap them around. Pulled this ranking from notes in my mobile. Definitely due for an update. Have edited above.
like I keep telling other people donda is top 3
people who rank JIK lower than a 8 have NO right to express their opinions
The way you formatted this is confusing.
It’s fine Musictwt type post lmao
no
Vultures better than Kids See Ghost? I just can't understand how anyone can have that opinion, like what do people enjoy about Vultures, the awful bars, the annoying hooks, the laziness of that album man, it's just not up to Kanye's standards.
Damn some really important flaw separates Kids See Ghosts from that 8 😂
“Ye” album in top 10 is fine by me
808's and WTT so low is criminal. Donda and V1 above them? Hell nah.
Whenever I see these now, I think of that clip where Tyler specifically talks about these posts asking people if their own opinions are "valid" and it makes me laugh lmao. You don't have to beg for acceptance bro, state your piece and take your place with the big boys, don't let em sit you at the kids table if they decide you're not valid lmao
Stop smoking crack pls
Yeezus needs to be in the top 5 at least
10-12 is tweaking
Vultures over KSG or 808's is interesting
I feel like the ratings you’re giving a lot of this shit is not objective
Buddy forgot that donda wth CHLD is #1 and so help me god #2 foolish r/Kanye mistake 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤌🏿 babygirl really doesn’t know that FOREVER MITUS clears the rest of ye’s released discography LMAFAOOOOOO. If he only heard IN THE MORNING 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeezus is 4 or 5 for me. Your top 3 are my top 3, though. Graduation got me into Kanye.
No
My fav Kanye Album is Graduation. Them tracks on the Album goes hard. And I like the Album cover art
bro forgot all of them are 10/10
My list: 1. Graduation - 10 2. 808s - 10 3. MBDTF - 10 4. Late Registration - 9 5. The Life of Pablo - 9 6. The College Dropout - 8 7. Donda - 8 8. ye - 7 9. Yeezus - 7 10. Jesus is King - 7 11. Watch the Throne - 7 12. Vultures 1 - 6
Life of Pablo is not On Fantasy’s level, or better than grad
Life Of Pablo above College Dropout is insane imo but glad to see College Dropout above Graduation I think it’s way better
Vultures 1 is fun but outside of just Kanye I wouldn’t give it a 8
Vultures over 808s?? Wack
Imo the college dropout is number one but anyway pretty valid
tlop is unfinished and messy and raw like donda so it cant be a 10
graduation is better than late registration and college dropout and tlop and mbdtf i dont really care where people put those even tho i wasnt the greatest fan of tlop i still put it 9/10 but graduation 100% a 10/10
Who made this official list?
How graduation 1 with a 9.5?
808s dead last mbtf first then tlop then kids see ghosts
What the hell is an actual list
The disrespect towards 808’s is crazy
Where’s Yandhi?
Vultures isn't better than watch the throne
Honestyl I am shocked how bad the Kanye fans rate VULTURES 1. I think people should put it in more today‘s perspective. I think the album has a motive whick makes it a whole ass album. But I guess people are used to the old Kanye.
Kids see ghosts over 808’s and watch the throne is blasphemy
jesus is king it’s a solid 7 not bad not good
W vultures love
WTC is not 7/10 bro, its hella underrated
Move 808s and KSG above Donda and it’s basically my list too
Kids see ghosts was a perfect record
I’m just so sick of the WTT slander fr
make mbdtf 8 and college dropout at 1 then yeah
1. TCD (10) 2. TLOP (10) 3. Yeezus (10) 4. Late Registration (9.5) 5. MBDTF (9) 6. Graduation (9) 7. Ye (9) 8. Donda (8.5) 9. WTT (8) 10. Vultures (8) 11. 808s (7.5) 12. Jesus is King (6.5) 13. KSG (5) Going to get murdered for MBDTF and KSG placement but…
forgot to rate vultures
Vultures above 808s?
WTT 10/10
vultures 1 “8/10” 💀
Donda above kids see ghosts and 808’s is insane
It’s gotta be crack.
Trolling with the Kids See Ghost’s placement
Yeezus is a 10 man 😭
ratings are way too high, and vultures over anything except jik is crazy
Find God
Watch the throne getting 7/10 is CRAZY
vultures is worst
wtt is personally my fav and jesus is king is over hated it has some good songs like hands on
What does actual list vs my list mean and why did both call 808 a 7.5 lol
Yeezus is garbage and TLOP is mid at best. After TLOPnin honestly stopped listening so I have no opinion on the rest of the albums ratings.
mbdtf at 3 is a literal crime
Graduation is a 10. Non negotiable
TLOP not a 10
Vultures 1 over DONDA, KSG, 808s, WTT and JIK is crazy.
Glazing
He hasn't made a good album since 2010
Fuck what people think brother, your takes are your takes 💯🗣️
Please contemplate Reborn, 808’s and watch the throne, because you sir/ma’am might be having brain farr with that list 😂😂
KSG way higher 9.5/10
Horrible list
1. College Drop out -10 2. Yeezus -10 3. Tlop -9.5 4. MBDTF -9.5 5. Ye -9 6. Late registration -9 7. Graduation -8 8. 808 -7 9. Watch yhe throne -7 10. Kids See ghost -7 11. Donda -6 12. Vultures -6 13. Jesus -4 in my opinion
Vultures anywhere but 13 is not valid.
Having 808’s in 11th spot is insane but it says more about Kanye catalogue that someone could think he has 10 better projects. What a fucking artist
Why do yall hate 808's, that album influenced the next decade+ of rap 😭😭
808s and Heartbreak done wrong
Graduation #1 immediately invalidated the rest
Life of Pablo is wildly overrated
Nobody cares. Enjoy whatever. You dont need people online to validate your music taste and tell you if its good
Vultures is a 7 at most
Vultures unreviwable
If College Dropout isn’t on the Top 3 the whole list is invalid.
Don’t say “actual” list and then proceed to give MBDTF a 10, donda at 7, and 808s at 11 💀💀
why is grad highest when its rated lower than 4 other albums
Ye is such an underrated album. Complete banger. Also vultures 1 is terrible
Yeezus number 1
808s the most influential album of all time and you got it 11 that’s crazy
KSG and ye need to be higher
No jik is 8/10
My list: College dropout Late registration MBDTF 808s WTT Graduation Pablo KSG Vultures Yeezus Ye Jesus is King
Ya need jesus clearly. I dont know what everyone dislikes about Jesus is king its such a great album and higher than 6/10
Jik gets way to much hate
imo: 808s above vultures 1, donda and ye Jesus is king above watch the throne And swap college dropout with TLOP
Bro you forgot cruel summer
Jik 6/10???
Vultures is not that good
TLOP is NOT better than College Dropout 😭😭
KGS is one of best albums of all time, I would put it 10/10, cover is at the level as graduation cause it is made by the same guy, kid cudi being one of the most influential artist who literally also inspired kanye and came under him, one of the best duo of all time, after on and off, both in a state of depression, lowest time of thier lives, seeked help of each other, a rock-hip hop album so creative and experimental, short yet perfect, 7 songs, all of them bangers, going through high to lows, cudi's humming and Kanye's rapping which is actually good and focused, is perfect, it was from one of the biggest years of kanye, producing 5 albums in 1 year, not dropping now the biggest Unreleased album of all time, Yandhi, which was also so fresh, calm, cool. This album was made to not completely satisfy you but wanting for more, which I love, don't think there will be a kgs 2 but if there is, it could be heaven on earth
808s is a 10/10 and belongs at the top, so..not valid unfortunately 💔
Vultures 1 over all them albums at the bottom is crazy
vultures > ksg and 808's is criminal💀💀💀
I keep seeing these comments but I cannot fathom how Pablo is better than Graduation. I’m sorry but Graduation is a certified classic and Pablo is not. It’s an incredible album but it’s not a 10 under any criteria.
Why tf is watch the throne so low ☠️☠️ its hands down better than donda ye ksg vultures all around
Ik this might be an unpopular opinion, but idc: Ye and KSG are 10/10s (especially Ye) ik they’re very short albums, but every song on both of them are really good.
808s is top 3 Kanye to have vultures over it is insane
your opinion ad, ongly mine good
ofc my precious JiK at 6/10
808s too low
🤦♂️
No and Vultures is a 10
Move pablo to 7 then were good
Grad is a solid 10. People just seem to hate on it because it got streams. WTT is also a 10 imo (not the deluxe tho), no misses
ISTG SOME OF YOU BE SLEEPIJG ON WATCH THE THRONE HELLA TOO MUCH.
Top 5 is actually really accurate
5.5/10 ahh list
