Everything was clicking on this album; the beats were amazing, the vocals were great, the writing was outstanding, but mostly it was a sound that was unusual and new: a boyband rapping.

Donda was an interesting listen, I'm going to be honest. At first I was thrown off and didn't like, but I gave it another chance. And another. And then after 4 listens it went from a 2/10 to an 7/10 for me. What kind of holds this album back though are fillers. This album would have been a 10/10 for me if it didn't have so many fillers. Songs like Remote Control, Tell The Vision and the Part 2's were just unnecessary. Also you can't have people cussing on your record then bleep it off because it's not the christian way. Maybe releasing an explicit version would bring my overall appreciation of this LP up. My favorite tracks are Jail, Hurricane, Praise God, Off The Grid, Ok Ok, 24, Moon, Jesus Lord, Pure Souls and Come To Life.
