It’s been a busy 2018 for Kanye who has released his own new album, ‘ye’ as well as a string of collaborative projects with artists including Nas, Kids See Ghosts (with Kid Cudi), Pusha T and Tenana Taylor.
Speaking about his latest album, ‘ye’, NME said: “It lacks the profundity of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and the audacity of 808s or Yeezus, but there’s still something quite pleasurable in seeing Kanye West – modern music’s most abrasive personality – with his guard down, seeming like less of a deity for 23 minutes. ‘ye’ is succinct and easy to swallow, but those aren’t necessarily the hallmarks of Kanye at the top of his game.”
“Nobody can deny this mini album flirts with brilliance, and feels like a pop cultural moment straight out the gate; we just wish there was a little more to it.”
