Early reactions to Kanye West’s new album are an impressively mixed bag

TwitterFacebook

After many long months of cryptic behaviour, Kanye West’s new album YE has finally arrived.

So far, a bunch of people who joined him in Wyoming — and anyone who tuned in for the livestream — are the only people who have listened to it.

Unsurprisingly, many of the people who did listen had some thoughts.

Plenty of people seemed to love it.

#YE is nuts. Kanye’s happiest, most hopeful…and PRETTIEST album by a fucking mile. Rich, melodic production that’s confidently sparse when it needs to be and goes widescreen when called for. Few brush strokes, but they’re big, and bright, and have a million colors in them.
