Graduation is simply just a product of its time, back when kanye was clearly trying to make a leap into pop stardom. A majority of the songs either didn’t age well or have beats that are extremely dated by today’s standard. The songwriting and production is also subpar when compared to his previous 2 albums. It is literally in my bottom 5 kanye albums ranking. Yet whenever i see zoomers discussing music, it is consistently brought up as one of their all time favorites or used as a defense mechanism whenever kanye gets himself into controversy again. Do they simply just not know albums like Late Registration or Yeezus exist, which are a vastly superior display of kanye’s talents?

>>130336043>Graduation is simply just a product of its timeGraduation is the reason why "the time" sounded like that. That's why Kanye is the GOAT, he always creates the trends for everyone else to copy.
>>130336043it became a meme for people to just parrot. "He made Graduation" when he was at rock bottom releasing stuff like NHH, WW3 and Cousins. Don't know why it was that album in particular it just became the meme. Meme culture can function like a hivemind sometimes. It could've been any of his older albums. Lil B was an a example for your generation on a macro level where his cult became it's own memetic hivemind. All these people saying "thank you based god" for no reason. Same applies to us on the micro level.

All my normie zoomer buddies love graduation and most of them heard it for the first time in the last decade.
>>130336043It's a perfect album. Who cares about it being a product of its time? No man can escape his time.And I don't see Graduation being the zoomer Kanye album pick. It's definitely 808s.
