    Pros: Excellent production

    Cons: Message about higher education may be misunderstood

    This is one of the nicest albums I've heard in a long time as with that JayLib - Champion Sound (Peep it if you havn't). Kanye's lyrics are quite nice and he's underrated as a lyricist. Excellent additions by Common and Talib, as wel...l as Mighty Mos, and all others. A must have in the collection. Ladies, get yo Kanye work out on!TonyTek© Read more Less

    College Dropout, classic

    By Doug Wright  Nov 14, 2003 | 3 out of 5 found this College Dropout review helpful

    Pros: Originality, Diversity, a positve new force in hip hop

    Cons: i haven't found any

    Kanye West's debut album "College Dropout" is definitely the most anticipated hip hop album for the new year. I've heard 6 tracks off the album, and each one is near perfect in his approach, delivery, and style. Not to mention some ...of the most original samples and music in the industry.If you truly love hip hop like I do, this is a refreshing change from "bling-bling" rap, and is nice to see.If you like Kanye, wait for a new artist coming from austin tx that will blow you away...T-Dub.

    Pros: Truthful

    Cons: nothing wrong

    Kanye West songs and words were original and they spoke only the truth and had me (a 17 year old) thinking about some of the stuff he said.His music has a mixure of r&b with fast club songs. I think / know he will be the next JAY-Z. He is an artist....... Read more Less

    Pros: hot beats, and good lyrics, lengthy,

    Cons: yea, i agree the skits were annoying

    This was very good. I liked it alot. i think that the best songs are traks 4,6,7,8,9,13,15,18,19,20,
    21, but thats my opinion. I also usually dont like the ROC but in this case i make an exception. All right lets get to the point, The music is what ma...kes the album what it is, K.west producing all the tracks with evidence from the dilated peoples co-producing "last call". I would recomned this album to anyone who likes hip-hop. even though the high pitched voices in most of the songs can become kinda annoying, it actually (i think) puts a creative twist on the song and kinda makes it unique, i just hope kanye doesnt get caught up in repitition wit it. if like songs like jay-z's "encore", "izzo"(i think kanye produced it), or "lucifer" or tailb kweli's "get by" or "good to You" u will like this album, and i dont like jay-z, my favorite rapper is actually nas so saying a roc-a-fella is good is even harder for me.

    Pros: Kanye brings newness & diversity to the table

    His CD may change between now and when it officially drops, but the version that I have is extremely entertaining.

    Pros: lyrical content is deep, varies from the cash, cars, hoes norm

    Cons: Only the fact that the project had to end. NONE1

    IT HAS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LISTEN TO A PROJECT FROM START TO FINISH WITHOUT SKIPPING ANY TRACKS. GREAT JOB KANYE. I COULD NOT WAIT TO COP THIS JOINT. I WAS SOLD ON THROUGH THE WIRE! THIS PROJECT GIVES FANS A LOOK INTO THE LIFE OF... KANYE WEST-THE STRESSES, STRIFES, TRIALS, TRIBULATIONS AND TRIUMPHS. THE STORY WAS TOLD COMPLETELY! NOW, I LISTEN TO KANYE EVERY MORNING BEFORE I BEGIN MY DAY. CALL IT CURTAINS, I'M HOOKED! Read more Less
