This is retarded. Instead of a list of songs in my library, im stuck with one 45-minute long track.

WTF IS THIS NONSENSE?

And the first step to kicking the sampling habit is to stop hanging out with that loser Kanye West. I can't even believe that these two know each other. They're about as unlike each other as two people can possibly be. Anyway, focusing on the album itself, all of the songs certainly demonstrate why some people think that John Legend will have a long and distinguished career. He certainly has the voice and the sentiment to be a favorite of both adults and young people; he just needs to have some "real" production behind him.

Good song.  Rhianna & Paul McCartney make the song powerful and full of emotion.
Thank you Kanye for allowing the "old guy",  who - by the way - helped pave the way for all music genres, was a part of a band that has never been musically beaten yet, and is a genius in his field, play with you on a song.
<------Yes, that is sarcasm.

okay, wish the album was available especially the remix with missy elliott, little expensive since google play has it for a cheaper price would not recommed purchasing this track.

I have been waiting months for this CD. Right now, it looks like I may be waiting a few more before Interscope fixes the missing tracks issue. Not happy.

Kanye West is truly like a breath of fresh air and reminds me of a time when Hip Hop was about being a LYRICIST; not talking about ice, rims, how may albums you've sold, or degrading women. This album has substance, tight beats, three of my favorite lyricists (Common, Mos Def, and Talib Kweli) and is just fun...something I haven't said or felt about an album in a while. My favorites are All Falls Down, Jesus Walks, Never Let Me Down (except for Jay-Z's part...as usual he dissappointed me by talking about himself on an otherwise deep and uplifting song...who cares Jay?!), Spaceship, and Family Business. By the way, the skits are very funny, too. All in all, a great album I highly recommend.

It's okay.

Did I expect more?  Absolutely, especially given who was involved, I thought this was going to be something epic.  From beginning to end, I found it to be more of a Kanye West album--be it left over tracks that didn't make the cut for 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' or a follow-up to that album--and Jay just hopped on last minute.  Seemed like Jay was on this for sympathy, this just seems like another Kanye-motivated vehicle to resuscitate his wanning popularity since '808s & Heartbreak.'

The album does flow.  The tracks are decent, but again, with these being the two biggest names in Hip-Hop today, I thought this was going to be the second coming or something.  Both have the ability to falter on certain tracks; I find Kanye to be more lyrical and in his element, and less just flat out stupid and uninspiring as most of his lyrics post-'Graduation,' on tracks better suited for conscience rappers like 'New Day' and 'The Joy' over Jay.  Jay, however, remains supreme and shows Kanye how it's done on just about every other track, from 'N***as In Paris' to 'That's My Bitch.'

'Lift off' is by far the WORST track on this album.  I don't know whose bright idea this was.

I'd give it 3.5 stars if Amazon allowed that.  It you're fans of both, curious, or just believe in hype, then this is definitely for you.  If not, don't bother.  Since there is nothing else out really rap wise, I guess this will have to do for now.

For all of you haters that don't like Kanye West lemme ask you something...WHY?  you don't like him because he is on of the greatest producers and mc's to ever step up to the mic.  People don't like him because he knows he's good and isn't afraid to say it.  Yeah, he might be a lil cocky, and the whole rolling stone picture was over the top, but when its all said and done, you cant deny the fact that Kanye West is a great talent.

With a hit debut album "College Dropout" Kanye reall put his name on the map.  With some unbelievable production, lyrics, and substance, kanye became one of the best hip hop artists out today.  With hit songs like "we don't care" "all falls down" "spaceship" "Jesus Walks" "never let me down" "the new workout plan" and "slow jamz", you couldn't go wrong, but if someone were to tell me that his second album would be just as good, or even a little bit better, i would have never believed that it could be done.

But, thats exactly what kanye did.  He released "Late Registration" and what i didn't think could be done, was done.  The production on this album is unbelievabble, and so are the lyrics.  Kanye is one of those guys that makes you think about things when you listen to him.  He talks about a lot of things that many people would never dare say and thats what i love about him.  I luved everything about this record.  Im not going to list all of the songs that i liked because i loved all of them.  Any person who claims that they're a hip hop fan, don't go out and cop all those albums from fake commercial rappers like 50 cent, go out and get something with substance like LATE REGISTRATION!

My top 8 songs:

heard em say

touch the sky

golddigger

roses(the best song on the album)

bring me down

diamonds of sierra leone (remix)

celebration

hey mama

The song ends at approximately 4 minutes. There are approximately 48 seconds of "music"/"noises" that are after the song. I wish I could have purchased a radio edit version of the song

This CD is one of the best CD's I own!  I had never heard of Kanye West, even as a producer, but I heard "Through The Wire" on the radio and loved it.  It turns out, that is not even my favorite song on the CD.  I seriously love every single song on this CD.  The first time I listened to it, I was feeling every song and didn't have to skip a single one.  Even the skits kept my spirits high.  Overall, Kanye West is one of the best producer/rappers out there, so go get this CD or you'll be sorry!

This is my new favorite song! I love Rihanna! And even though I am not a Kanye fan, this song works for all three entertainers! My theme song for a while to come!

For those that don't know, Kanye West has been making beets for Jay-Z since The Dynasty, he is by no means new to the game.  The only reason this album didn't get 5 stars was because he just needs to step up his lyricism a lil bit but once he does that nobody can complain.  He raps about real life situations but adds in a little humor to keep the commercial audience listening.  Yo here's a rundown:
Track 01-Skit
Track 02- (3.5/5) "...can't shine off $6.55" we all know about minimum  wage.  Hot beat. Good chorus.  Funny lyrics.
Track 03-Fill In. Don't tell anybody.
Track 04- (4/5) Originally a poem he recited on Def Poetry.  He turned it into a flow and had Lauren Hill on the chorus.  Unstated problems didn't allow her to make the final cut.
Track 05- Another fill in.  One for church or somethin.
Track 06- (3.5/5) Spoke for everybody that has ever worked retail in their lives tryin to save up to live their dreams. Didn't really like the cameos though.
Track 07-(3/5) One of the first songs he spit on his demo when he was trying to get signed.  Good to listen to when your back is against the wall.
Track 08- (5/5) "Oh Baby." This beat is foolish.  Already a classic.  Kanye's lyrics actually outshines jiggas here, "racism still alive they just be concealin it", and "I can't complain what the accident did to my left eye/ cuz look what a accident did to Left Eye/ first Aaliyah now Romeo must die?" So positive. Jay kills it too.
Track 09- (4.5/5) Who said Kanye ain't got flows?  Just listen to the first few bars.  Then guess who's on the track Talib Kweli and Common Sense.  Remeber what Jay said on the Black Album.  Kanye was smart to have both of them on the same track.
Track 10- Skit. "Six-pac Shakur" WHAT? "$Free. 99?"
Track 11- (4.5/5) Watch this be the next club banger. Lyrics are definitely silly on this one.  Beat is wild.  I wonder if he could do a beat for me one day. "maybe we could work it out."
Track 12- (3.5/5) Second single.  A little different from the one thats getting radio play.  Only one verse from twista and more singing from Jamie Foxx.
Track 13-(3/5) One thing I can say about Kanye's beats is that they are versitile.  North, South, East, West, he can do it all.  Chorus is funny.
Track 14-Skit. "Oh my god"
Track 15- (3.5/5) I'm in college right now so you know we be bumpin dis up in da Omega house.  Different flow stlye from him.
Track 16-Skit.  This cat is hopeless.
Track 17-Skit.  Don't feel sorry for people like this.
Track 18- (5/5) Another classic.  Another classic beat.  Need I say more. Yes I do.  Mos Def is a rediculus man.  Freeway ended the song perfect.  Nothin wrong with this song at all.
Track 19- (5/5) This song should be motivation for everybody.  It almost feels like you knew him through all of this.  Through the whole wire.  Gotta love it.
Track 20- (4.5/5) My favorite song on the CD.  Only because it makes me smile everytime i hear it.  Makes anybody reminisce about their fam and back in the day.  Hits you on the inside.
Track 21- (4/5) This song is like 12 minutes long but most of it is talking about how he got signed. You only need to listen to this song about one time if you didn't know who he was and where he's coming from.
He had a couple of songs he had to take off of the album and add to the bonus CD's like "My Way" which is another one of my favorites, and " The Good, Bad, Ugly."  So stop downloadin an go cop da real album.  Da Roc aint going nowhere.

Kanye West has completely fell off he has gone POP and doesn't do a good job at it what happened to the soul samples??? What's with the crappy club music?? This is one of the worst albums I ever heard in my life I think I liked 1 song on Yeezus which was "Bound 2" the last song on the album that actually sounds like vintage Kanye West smfh if you thought Electric Circus, UMC, Blueprint 2, Kingdom Come, Vol. 3, Nastradamus, Curtis, 808's and Heart Break were terrible well guess what this is even worse how can you not come up with 10 classic tracks??? Wow just wow Kanye you just lost a fan.

I like 1st half of the album (1-7), its amazing. The depth and meaning of the lyrics + the beat .... but then the later half kinda sucked (8-13) :(
