Album Review: Graduation

Senior Kennan Sanford listens to his favorite song on Graduation. He is a avid Kanye listener.

 

Graduation is Kanye’s third studio album and was released in 2007. This album was mainly influenced by house music, a subgenre of electronic dance music. During this album, Ye uses a different flow than he normally used. Ye prepared for this album by listening to Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash.

The three best songs on this album are Flashing Lights, Stronger, and Can’t tell me Nothing. I asked my sister Ella Hubka for her rating on the album and she said, “I love Graduation. I’ll give it a 9/10.” I then asked Sophmore Berkley Reents for his opinion and he said, “I give it an 8.5/10. Great album.”

 

Overall I give this album a 10/10. There are only 2 bad songs and the rest of the songs are perfect in my opinion. This is Kanye’s best album ever and is a classic.
