    Kanye West has the number one album this week:


    The set — which was released on June 1 via G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam Recordings — earned 208,000 equivalent album units in the week ending June 7, according to Nielsen Music, and is the fifth-largest week for an album in 2018. Of Ye’s starting sum, 85,000 were in traditional album sales.

    Album is hot garbage. Daytona and Kids See Ghosts are both incredible so I'd overall chalk 2018 up as a W for Kanye (musically speaking).

    Some song at the end I dig. Can’t remember the title. Possible track 5&6

    Def don't think it's his best, maybe his worst, but hot garbage is too far. This album has some real nice moments.

    I thought it was pretty cringe worthy tbh. Production was fine, just lyrically I felt embarrassed for kanye a bit. Glad someone is enjoying it.

    Edit: I get he is trying to promote some sort of awareness of BH, but tbh his artistic execution in achieving that on this album is so subpar compared to an album like Gossamer.
