Late Registration - One of the best produced albums of ALL TIME???

[ωεεźγ ғ]

 Just saw this Kanye Interview on E!Pass and he said that Late Registration is def. one of the best produced albums of all times  well i think its better than yayo's cd but one of the best produced albums of all time iunno bout that one, wow he was soo cocky with the explanation too he needs to come back to earth or he could fall down while riding his own high like snitchy cent fom Grodt to Massacre

pleeeeeease, all that dude does is sample shit

one of the best ever?  sorry, you're not a vet buddy....

if you could put together a bomb list of dudes albums who did shit with their own instruments etc.... it would fuck that shit up

[UKnowWhatItIs: welcome to my traps....game over]

Why does Kanye have to be so cocky???Be is way better & even that CD isnt close to being classic.

pleeeeeease, all that dude does is sample shit

So? He can make songs a lot more listenable than other producers can.

I heard Late Registration like what... 10 days ago for the first time... and so far I've bumped it every day at least once from front to back.

[Sikotic™]

I think production wise it's great. Tracks like Crack Music and Gone are really layered n shit. I like it.

[I`m Wayne Brady bitch!]

Of All time? One answer: NO

The album's really nice and all that, but c'mon... The production really isn't that great. It's got a great vibe to it, but nothing more than that.

[CRAFTY]

Great production? Yes. One of the best produced albums of all time? Too early to say...

[Kill]

it´s skillfully produced, but some of it sounds really tedious to me. Technically, the production is elaborate, but I´ve heard better and especially more interesting

[2nd ROund KnockOuT]

the production almost seems too perfected
sometimes i enjoy grimy beats crack music is almost an exception

almost falls in to r and g music

A lot of people always miss the point went they judge production. Production is not composing melodies; it's adding to melodies, guiding records, and setting a tone. A producer takes a song and makes it darker, or happier, of stronger, etc. Kanye West is obviously a terrible composer but so is almost everyone in hip hop. That isn't the point. The point is he is a producer, but in my opinion he's just an overglorified studio technician. Anyone that knows how to remaster a song can do what he does. He takes old songs, loops them, and speeds them up, all the while cleaning them up to sound more current. That doesn't make him a great producer. A great producer is someone like Daniel Lanois who takes a bare U2 album and gives it ambiance. A great producer is Quincy Jones who knows how to hand pick an album from 90 songs and cut it down to under 10, and make music sound timeless well before it was supposed to. A great producer is Brian Wilson, who can make the most absurd sound magical, and really knew how to clean up a track well before the digital age. A lot of production was tricks you had to learn and do better than anyone else. Now it's all digital. Go to any tech school and you'll learn most of all you need in 2 years. You couldn't do that way back when. Even by Kanye's standards, to say his album is anywhere near the production level of Thriller or Dark Side of the Moon is just another joke coming out of Kanye's mouth. Too bad he isn't trying to be funny.

man, i downloaded that probably a week ago....and still havnt had the urge to unzip and listen to it,  i liked college dropout, but i doubt this is going to be classic

[icebergslimIII]

To quote MC Ren "If Dre didn't do it, I can't fuck wit it!".   I've never heard Dre, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg or whoever had a great, classic album ever brag about it. An artist can't hype his own shit - only the fans determine what is a classic and what is one of the greatest produced albums of all times is. I sure Chuckles or Knuckles whatever it is will put Kanye's new album in the top 10 albums of all time! That list was bullshit just like Kanye's comments are!
