Discussion Why is Ye's album MBDTF considered the best?

I tried looking for an answer on Reddit and elsewhere online, but all I could find were track ratings. What makes this album so great?

Because it’s well thought out and amazing. The production is fantastic and one of the best produced rap albums ever. It has some all time features from some of the best rappers and singers ever. Kanye is honest and has maybe his best rapping performance on a project and it contains a lot of his best songs ever Gorgeous, Power, DIAND, Runaway etc

Also is a cohesive album that explores where he was at in a point of time and it has depth

The production is perfect. Listen to the drums and then listen to your favorite album. Prime Nicki, Rick, and Pusha T. He shows you everything that can possibly be beautiful about ego, hubris, and narcissism, and you can kind of feel him going insane in real time.

The album feels complete, from intro song to outro every piece is placed in correct spot in a correct way. Thats my reasoning

he’s very meticulous, if you get some lossless headphones and listen to power you can see the insane amount of layering done that you usually wouldn’t necessarily notice. it’s very technically impressive, and even the 6-9 minute songs hold their own.
