His best effort yet!

This is the best album kanye has put together so far. The past 2 were good but if you are ready for a new era in hip hop, it here with this album. No more talking about the regular hip hop garbage. Money, women, drugs, and killing people. This is actually an album where you can listen to it and get away from that. Go pick it up, its an album full of hot beats and hot lyrics (yes i did say lyrics). His lyrical effort are outstanding. Go get it!

kanye latest efforts are hit and miss for me but a nice ablum to check out and add to his collection. i liked more than half of this cd. kanye's lyrics remain on point but some of the beats miss the soul from the last previous cds of his. this cd is probably better than any of cd released other than common's finding forever. But the production on that one was by the genius himself

The cd is good work. Couldve done without some guest but all in all GOOD cd. 3 for 3 this summer with Common's cd, Talib's cd and now Kanye. KEY TRACKS. GOOD LIFE couldve done w/o T-Pain, I WONDER. CANT TELL ME NOTHING, CHAMPION,EVERYTHING I AM, BIG BROTHER AND STRONGER. MAKE SURE TO BUY 2 COPIES OF THIS CAUSE YOU WILL PLAY IT OUT AND TO STOP 50 FROM MAKING MORE GARBAGE.

This album was well worth the buy and definitely a career best from Kanye West. His past albums have been great also but this has got to be my favorite one yet from him. His ryhming and play on words are great while he also gives a message in the lyrics. My favorite tracks are: 1. Good Morning, 2. Champion, 4. I Wonder, 5. Good Life and 13. Big Brother. If you like Kanye and his music, then you will love this album.

Hip Hop is resurected. Thanks, Kanye. Just where you'd expect Kanye to pick up where "Late Registration" left off. Even the artwork is progressive in nature from the last record. Really, besides the T-Pain and Lil' Wayne cameo's I give it a 5 star rating. If 4.8 were an option I'd do that, on part of the aformentioned Pain and Wayne cameos. All in all a stellar outro to the Collegiate record series Kanye's produced.

I loved this cd. However, I might not be the best critic because of the simple fact that I am a HUGE Kanye fan!!! For the most part, anything he does, I am going to like it no matter what. This is the first cd I listen to in my car to get me up in the morning on my commute to work. It wakes me up and gets me in a good mood to start the day. I will continue to recommend this cd to others. THAT'S WHAT THAT IS KANYE!

this album changed my life and helped me drastically through losses in my life..throughout his career Kanye has been able to create albums that change peoples lives and mine as well..it helped me through losses of friends. My favorite song is Flashing Lights cause it is not like anything i have ever heard, and i never get ennoyed of hearing it. I reccomend this album to anyone, its the album of the year. Grammy!

Overall this is a pretty decent album. This isn't really an album I'd tell a friend to buy it however. Some songs really catch your attention and hold you to them, such as The Glory, and Stronger. But in the end, I find I end up listening to the same songs repeatedly on this album. There's just not as much growth in this album as there have been on his past ones.

It seems that every CD Kanye comes out with, its a hit. This CD is no different, Graduation is a great CD for those who are looking for something new from the Hip Hop artist.
Must listen to:
Good Morning (intro)
I wonder
Stronger
Can't Tell me nothing
Drunk and Hot girls
Everything I am

I am a fan of all music and went out this week and bought this CD as well at 50 Cent's and Kenny Chesney's. Let me tell you, I am very happy with this purchase. The songs are great and offers up something everyone will appreciate, from fast beats to slower songs. I love his vocal range and in all honesty after listening to 50 cents cd, I hope this outsells "Curtis" so that 50 will retire as a solo artist.

Kanye's hard work is evident on Graduation. He came close to topping his classic College Dropout with this album and definitely outdid Late Registration. The production on the album is superb, with samples from Daft Punk, features from T-Pain, Lil Wayne, Mos Def. The only knock on this album is that his production value is so great, sometimes his lyrics can't keep up. Classic album! A must-buy!

Must have album! Kanye has done it again, loved The College Dropout, loved Late Registration, and love Graduation. His lyrics are clean and understandable and the beats get you movin. Stronger, Can't Tell Me Nothing, And Good Life are Hits. Other songs I enjoy are Good Morning and Flashing Lights. There are great collaborations also with T-Pain, Lil' Wayne, Mos Def, and more. Amazing album!

When the single "Cant tell me nothing" came out I already knew who won. Kanye West calloborates with different artists from different genre's thats why his fanbase is big. 50 cent talks about the same things like his other albums, "The game" is a better artist than him. Overall this album is great 5 stars all the way. Get this album if you like Rock, Pop, Rap, Techno, he has it all.

Kanye is at his best again. Production is out of this world! Kanye isn't afraid to show emtion, show vulnerability, show hurt, practically unheard of in the rap game. The album artwork is amazing and shows the level of detail that he puts into everything.
Favorite Tracks
Champion
Stronger
Good Life
Can't Tell me Nothing
Everything I Am
The Glory
Homecoming
Big Brother

Great Music. We need more rappers and producers to follow Kanye West and keep REAL hip hop music alive. Kanye knows what real hip hop music is suppose to sound like. I'm sick of this shoot'em up, chain hangin, pants hangin, gun slangin, all the time. We need more music like this that makes you feel good. Hip hop is not dead. Thank you Kanye...GOOD MORNING!

kanye is no way better than fifty no way shape or form,but he makes good music and hes a producer,i went and purchase both Kanye and 50 cent album on 9/11 and i dont really like kanye album compare to fifty thats just me.....he has like only three song on a 12 tracks CD,and hes repeating what fifty cent say on his album....anyway hes good at what he does okay can't take that a way from him....ever since i got both album after the 3 song on the CD i takes it out because there's nothing else to listen to you can't vibe to it at all.........if it was like the college dropout,i would say yeah hes got fifty on this one but i can't say it for this.........but hey music is music you cant have everybody sounding the same right..........fifty has 17 tracks compare to 12.....love kanye but not on this one.......I ONLY LIKE THREE(3)TRACKS ON THE WHOLE ALBUM..........PEACE

The new Kanye CD Graduation is a fairly decent cd. At first I didnt like it too much, however I'm starting to get used to it and like it more and more. It is fairly short, not alot of tracks, but still its good. The beats are nice, and the lyrics are ok. Overall I would recomend, but its not on my must have list.

It's nice but played out

The one thing I like about Kanye West is that he raps about lots of different things. It's a refreshing feeling listing to artists that are diverse instead of the usual I have beef or I am rich artists that are out today. He speaks about his own personal issues but without shoving success down the listener's throats. The only thing about the album is that it's gets played out really fast. I went through the cd for like two times and have not touched it since. Now I would say don't waste your time with this whole 50 Cent v.s. Kanye thing it's not worth the time. A real artists should care more about the music instead of how much it makes. It felt like Kanye was going more commercial supporting this sales gimmick and it effect the album for me as well. I recommend the cd for fans and people that like to get a away from horrible artists.

Better than curtis

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
this album is definetely better than curtis. curtis is a wanna be gangsta album with no real thought put in. the beats are amazing and easy to listen to. his lyrics feel like theirs emotion put in and not in a monotonous tone like 50 cents. the way 50 flows is boring and you can begin to forget your listening to him. Graduation is a must buy.
