Top 50 Albums by Region: Midwest Day 41

Kanye West - Graduation



post your favorite song with your vote

Unlike alot of people, I really enjoyed this album. Loved the production. Not top 50 though. Favorite song is Good Life I can listen to that all day...Everything I Am is also another favorite.

Top 50, favorite song here is "Champion".

Top 50. Way too much hate on this album. Classic? No. Dope? Yes.

It is dope, you're right about that.

Slang, today's picks in the Region threads are interesting because all four of them I recently played.

This album was entertaining for the first few listens....then it became coaster material.

I agree with Pounds. There's a few tracks I still like, but not many.

Neither. This album is a joke.

No Parker you are a joke.

Anyway top 50 late 30's. Top 3 trks Everything I Am, Big Brother, and The Glory.

The standouts on this album are really great, but this is a 4 star album at best. That ain't good enough for top 50.

Indeed Terry

Taylor or Wayne you did not vote.

Never heard, no vote.

They didn't vote because I accidentally closed the poll. I fixed it. No worries. My bad.

Yeah, i doubt i will have any less than 4 stars. I mean this one wasn't a no brainer. I could see this album in my top 60.

I didn't vote. I did now. It wouldn't let me the first time.

smh. KRob, you yell at Terry for that, but you said The Documentary is not top 25 from the West, but it's in your top 60 of all time... lol

Yeah Taylor, that was my fault.

I "yelled" at Terry?...lol. Anyway yeah I thought about that and Documentary is on my top 60 wall of fame but I just haven't added the other 40 and that may push Documentary back some. So that is why I changed my mind because I was going to vote top 25.

Damn right you yelled! lol

neither, this album is OK, my favorite song was probably Flashing Lights cuz i always enjoyed when it came on in GTA IV...

How old are you, man? This album got ate up by high school girls, because that's who he made it for. I'll be a joke to you, Jack. Have fun at the dance!

Close, but no. I actually like this one more than Late Registration. Favorite song off the album is Can't Tell Me Nothing. That beat is just killer, I love that beat. Probably my favorite single from Kanye.

top 50...the prick did his thing with the beats on this one!

And see that is what makes you a joke. If you hear "high school girl" music in this you really lame as fuck...str8 up.

Are you sure K.Rob, I thought Kanye made records for dance teams and what not, just like a modern day Prince or something...Game Blouses! I've only heard singles and shit, so if he gets down on the other tracks, I'm just not knowing.

Yup. All seriousness, I'll wear your lame like a badge. Keep twirling your hair and smacking your gum, pop-tart.

Yeah Through the Wire, Can't Tell Me Nothing, All Falls Down, Slow Jamz, Heard'em Say, Diamonds, Drive Slow, Home Coming, and Champion reminds me of nothing dealing with dance teams and high school girls. And you say you have heard all his singles? The dude has plenty of substance in all his albums he's not your typical run of the mill emcee at all.

this album definitely holds its most appeal to high school girls and girld in general ranging from 13-21 at the time. theres not dispute there

i mean i didnt even buy this, my 12 year old sister bought it when it came out and i just grabbed it from her...

There is dispute you guys need to stop trying to hide your hate for the man with stupid comments like above. Almost every mainstream artist out right now appeals to high school girls becuase they only listen to whats hot. Stop trying to downplay the man's talent with smart ass comments like that it just make you look even more like a hating troll hiding in his secret cave hating on all things mainstream.

do high school girls listen to Jeezy on the regular? Plies? Gucci Mane? no not really and they are mainstream.

Im not downplaying his talent, but i guarantee if you look at the demographics of the people who bought Graduation they would be in favor of what me and Kid Joe are saying. He clearly appealed to them for a reason

What the fuck are you talking about? I'm not entitled to my opinion? The album's a joke, that's all I said. You insulted me like you're name's Kevye West. I was fine leaving it where I started. You demanded the further commentary.

And, yes, Kanye's fanbase is mostly HS girls. Ever noticed how MOST grown men consider him a joke?

He is a walking punchline to anyone with a little intelligence.
