This was Kanye’s first album and was one of his best in my opinion. I wanted to review this album after the documentary just came out about Kanye’s journey pre- College Dropout. At this time Kanye was only known as a producer and this was his time to prove himself as a rapper/producer.

Overall: 9/10

The three best songs in this album are Through The Wire, Slow Jamz, and Family Business. All three songs are perfect in my opinion. I asked my sister Ella her opinion on the album and she said, “I liked the album and the documentary.” I then asked Senior Austin Lowery for his rating on the album and he said, “I give it a 6.5/10.”

Overall I give this album a 9/10. I give it a 9 because there are no songs below 5 and there are multiple 10’s. Plus there is tons of drama/history behind this album. This is going to be the first Kanye album rating. There will be a new one every week for the next 6 weeks.
