It's no mystery. I absolutely love The Life of Pablo. It's one of those albums that seems to either do really well with the fanbase, or really badly. Sort of how DAMN. is doing. Anyway, I've said it a few times that I would put The Life of Pablo at my number one spot for a Kanye West album, but obviously 808's & Heartbreak has taken that spot now. Don't blame me, blame the fact that Kanye makes music that makes it difficult to put at your number one spot. I mention this solely because the standout track for me on The Life of Pablo would have to be:
Sun don't shine in the shade (turn me up!)
Bird can't fly in a cage (turn me up!)
Even when somebody go away (turn me up!)
The feelings don't really go away
That's just the wave (yeah)
I know you may think I'm being funny by mentioning The Life of Pablo but I assure you, I am not. I find the absolute "out there" concept and the complete absurdity to be an enormous positive. And of course, who else could do it but Kanye.
