    Yea Graduation wasn't all that good. People just hype it up due mainly to the fact that it came out the same day as "Curtis".

    But then again, his last 2 Cds haven't really been that good and his recent one sounds like a sobered up T-Pain album.

      So, you're taking back your comment about Late Registration?

        Nah. To me I think that was better than College Dropout. Didn't really wow me away like Late Registration did.

        I thought that had better songs on it then College Dropout had. I was saying that Graduation wasn't as good as advertised to me and 808's and Heartbreak...no comment.

            Wow. Graduation is far and away my favorite Kanye CD. College Dropout is second to me, but I think that a lot of people like stuff just because its old, especially in Hip Hop. Maybe that's because its hard to recapture the first time you heard something amazing? Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt, Ready 2 Die, 36 Chambers, etc. and yes, College Dropout.

            I think that Graduation is seriously underrated here and is one of my favorite albums of all time. Period.

              it bugs me on such a good album, that Kanye picked "Stronger" as the first single. It soured me to the whole experience off the bat. It was nice to get Graduation two months before everyone at TCU did though. I was mr. popular because of it. Too many college students like Kanye. It's insane.

                I agree with many of you on Kanye's newest album and i do think it sucks compared to how good he is. The only two songs I can even listen to is See You In My Nightmare and Heartless.

                    Nope it's not cause it's old the album was just great. Graduation had horrible production and even worse lyrics.

                    If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                      I'll never consider Kanye a good lyricist though. He never has been. The production is pretty much everything today's rap market is asking for. This is why you're not a fan, and I'm not much of a fan of it myself.

                          I realize this is old, but am wondering who you guys think Cham got pretty good? I think his Plies was real good, along with Wayne. Most were pretty good, didn't really like Snoop.

                                That's actually from a leaked album that came out last year. It's a pretty good album too.
