It was pretty average imo. But it was better than Curtis so it accomplished its goal.

Graduation is not better than CD,LR
Damn good album.. great follow up, but Kanye needs to step his lyrical ability up

It's not being talked about anymore...There are albums that have been out for YEARS and people still discuss certain songs, lyrics..Graduation is just a very average album people were callin a classic when it came out.

N*gga it's been two months. Listen to the album. Don't sit on the computer on a forum talking about how great it is, what's the point in that? Finding Forever hasn't been talked about a lot. TI vs. TIP hasn't been talked about. In a couple of months, American Gangster talk will die down as well. It's only natural.

You have 14k posts and you don't know how quickly SOHH posters move onto the next album/mixtape?!
The album is still played by a lot of people. At a house party I was at last night when they played Flashing Lights everyone went nuts.

Niqqas talked about it all summer and all month after it dropped. And I mean every got-damn thread imaginable was made on the damn thing. After that's been done, what else is there to do?
How random would it be to sit here two months later and bring up outta the blue "what's your fav track on Graduation?" like that's never been discussed on here.
The only reason people still bring up albums from years ago on here is because they were released YEARS ago, not 8 weeks ago. There's no room for reflection on sh*t when there's still singles bein' dropped off of it.

not that many songs on Graduation stick out to me and strike me
I could relate to College Dropout and LR ...hell who couldnt? N*gga had classics for days.
Graduation ...nothing really sticks out (maybe good morning but to me it had no replay value.)...i hear the songs when i hear em, usually on the radio ...and the one song that was so dope he ruined by puttin the remix on there with jeezy
Bad move :dry:

"She's so self conscious, she has no idea what she's doing in college
That major that she majored in dont make no money
But she wont drop out her parents will look at her funny
......the concept of school seems so securr" :eek:
Of course not, but different people have different tastes.
To me college dropout and late registration was like my life story lmao
All Falls Down
Spaceship
Get Em High
School Spirit
Family Business
and pretty much the whole Late Registration cd was on point and I could relate too ...
...and if what he was spitting wasnt hapenning at that junction of my life...I was very well headed down that path in the future....thats what made those albums so dope to me....from my own personal experience
Listening to Graduation, the only song I could find like that was "Good Morning" ...Graduation was refreshing, ....but its almost like he digressed so far away from college dropout and late registration it caught me by surprise

C/S
If we made a thread saying whats yo fav track of Graduation, the first 5 replies would be ''You late as hell nicca'' or ''JFK just got shot, turn on the news''... an ish like that.
I still rate it 4.75/5 with Drunk & Hot Girls being really weak. Album was and is great to me and I still think its better than his other two albums. What else is there left to say?? Nothing. i liked it, I like it, done, next album please.

Overhyped, by who.?Of course Kanye is gonna overhype it. I still think its a very good album. Its less personal than the first two but it seems like at least 8 of the songs on it can be singles. No bull**** skits. Way better than Curtis
That album is still the sh!t. Still in my rotation with all the other Kanye joints.

I usually dont quote myself but sheep got to face the facts:
I just notice the existence of patterns on this site. You're newbie so i dont blame you for not seeing them. Ask the 5/5-voters in three months how they feel bout AG then and they'll be like "it's 3.5/5 max, i never said it was 5/5", and **** like that. Always the same. Most SOHH posters are sheep, or stans.

That's how it usually goes on here man..Just wait and see when that Nas album drops.
"Man , this new ___ album is classic..____ did it again"
6 months later (same dude)
"___' last album was average...I only liked a couple of song"

Thats the way it is for most albums right? Especially if you are a fan (not be confused with stan) of that artist......just being happy that your favorite artist has finally dropped some new material....
Listening to the intro is f*cking bliss. I remember I used to be stupid and call some albums classics after listening to the first 2 songs.....I stopped doing that a long time ago but I can see people on here still do it. In a way I can't blame them. Theyre just happy to be getting some new music, its almost refreshing.
I remember I gave Little Brother's latest album a 10/10 ....but after re-evaluating the sh*t I gotta knock it down to a 7.7/10.
It happens.

LOL, yea....as soon as one album drops another one comes out a week later. Wtf is up with that.
I copped Trae's album the same day I got LB's and I still havent gotten around to listening to it yet, I paid 18.99 for that sh*t

Sentenza is right. That is how it goes. Everything is classic when its fresh. Each month it is out it loses a "mic" rating on SOHH. So as soon as its been out for 2 months its a 3.5 no matter how good the album is. This is why i know most of this site is crack babies because their attention span is like a crack heads.
The only thing more funny then that is when someone tries to take an album from 10-15 years ago and compares it side by side with an album out right now. Then says something like 'the production sounds wack and not as nice as ____'

c/s. The worst sh!t I´ve listened this year so far...out of 13 songs only 4 I really enjoied. Production wise it´s the worst thing to come out since Snoop´s "Da game is to be sold..." I´m never gonna play this crap again...Kanye really disapointed me on this one and I´m pretty sure I listened the same as anyone who praised...but opinion is opinion and I respect who loved the album but I just don´t get it.

You must be a wigga or at least your friends are a bunch of wigga.
Graduation is Kanye's worst album that's why...its good but lyrically it was lazy except for Good Morning, the first verse is one of the best I heard this year...College Dropout (lyrically and productio wise) is still his best album
yall *****s cant be serious..
Imo that album is crack..Im still bumpin Glory

Graduation is definitely Kanye's best album of the three and will be a classic in the future.
