    Kanye West used to make albums that were fun to listen to and had actual hits on them. This album is boring Christian propaganda with good production.

    Insanely good music. Kanye West is GOAT. The sky is blue. Every song is at least an 8.5 (with 5 of them 10 imo). His best album i dare say, even better than MBDTF.

    At more than 100 minutes, the album may seem challenging at first, but is well worth it: amazing production, fire bars, incredible artistic concept, bigger-than-life vibe, glorious verses... this is the definition of an instant classic

    On “Come to Life”, a beautiful spine-tingling love-telling story off of Donda, Kanye sings about his desire for another life and wishing he had listened more to his wife, Kim Kardashian’s thoughts, dreams, and aspirations. He brings to light his mixed emotions about her presence and her absence while expressing how he doesn’t want to die alone without her specifically at his side.

    Nice album it’s pretty good but not as good as MBDTF it’s still good though better than Jesus is King.

    Great album. Jesus Lord part 2 is a top 10 Kanye song. Some mixing could be better and the pop smoke song is unpleasant, otherwise a generally great album.

    Although I'm obviously a huge Kanye fan, I didn't like the album at all. The album is incomplete and sloppy.

    Un álbum demasiado largo y que tuvo que recurrir a un exceso de colaboraciones para intentar sobresalir.

    Álbum com pouca relevância, temática simples e sem graça, e fora as divulgações nos estádios de mal gosto.

    20 tracks too many. Most are fillers at best in a poor attempt to boost streams. The best of Kanye has gone.

    Se siente incompletp, asi de simple, se siente como un monton de cosas producidas y compuestas en un par de horas en vez de sentirse como un album
    Que enorme decepcion
    Simplemente siente flojo, medio terminado y eso apenas

    This album is in another level of good music. It's fantastic. An amazing experience, You cry, you smile, you get euphoric. Songs talk about religion, depression, feelings, fame, racism and social issues. In fact got a little disappointed by the polemics with certain features and that gave me a little less incredible experience than it could've been to litsen to. Still, it's amazing.

In fact got a little disappointed by the polemics with certain features and that gave me a little less incredible experience than it could've been to litsen to. Still, it's amazing. If early, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was unanimously Kanye's best album, now, it's not. DONDA is maybe not better, but it's in the same level. 27 tracks and not a single one of them is bad. They're all great or above that. Ye just made at least one of his top 3 career albums, and proves himself as one of the greatest artists of all time. Expand

    All spectacle and controversy with no substance. Kanye’s inclusion of Marilyn Manson and DaBaby to take advantage of their “scandals” underlies the ignorant noise that’s replaced the genius.

    One of kanye's best albums since the MBDTF era, it's very emotional and unique, a real masterpiece.

    His music can't even save his problematic a**. Adding two problematic people to the mix, boom! Congrats kanye, thanks for proving that your mere existence pollutes the world.

    Though this isn’t a complete comeback, frustrated Kanye fans certainly have more grounds for optimism after this record than they did before it.

    Donda isn't without its highlights, but taken as a whole, it's both confused and confusing.

    There are times where Kanye recaptures the magic of his golden years. ... But there just isn’t enough good here to look past the flaws. The final result is a collection of songs with little binding energy other than a vague Gospel through line, which runs across the tracklist — chaotic like The Life Of Pablo but devoid of the magic.
