    The Awakening
    The songs are mostly just nondescript airwave fodder, clogging up the aether for months to come.
    • 69 Metascore

    Something To Tell You
    These songs are as limp as long-lost lettuce, several of them barely meriting the appellation “song” at all.

    Donda
    Resplendent moments – like a second’s burst of sunshine through dark storm clouds – are so rare that by the time you emerge on the other side, they’re all but forgotten. ... But by involving Manson, West has made this impossible. Donda leaves a sour taste that no number of good beats, gospel choirs or church organs will cleanse. Zero stars.
