So someone made a Yeezus Christmas Parody and it's fucking amazing holy shit.

    I'm In It (The Chimney)

Just...amazing.

Anyways it's break and the greatest day of the year for some of you people but it's pretty much just Wednesday for me. Younger me (6-7) used to straight up hate Christmas when Ramadan didn't line up with it because it was on the lunar calendar. I had even less of a censor than I do now so I got into trouble for it whenever I felt people were bothering me asking "what did you get for Christmas". Nothing, damn, gah.

Luckily I've grown out of that and can kinda appreciate the mood it puts people in, but I still get a little uneasy this time of year.

Oh well. Three weeks off before school starts back up and then I have a huge project at work that I'm excited about. And I have a feeling I'll like my classes more next semester too. Till then it's videogames and movies that I need to catch up on (sorry insom). And meetin up with friends when they're done with this holiday thing that you guys are super into.

I look forward to listening to this, I've been listening to Yeezus this past week quite a lot. It's my first Kanye foray. There are aspects I really dig, mostly I love how humble he is.

Sweet

    Yeezus

Wait shit no-

I would listen chronologically:

The College Dropout (2004)

Late Registration (2005)

Graduation (2007)

808s & Heartbreak (2008)

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010)

Watch the Throne (2011)

Yeezus (2013)

Honestly you could probably skip Watch the Throne too

^ Right on all counts. Not a diehard Kanye fan by any means but he's one of those artists where the evolution matters and enjoyment of earlier albums may be impacted if you've heard later ones.

Watch the Throne, whatever else it may be, is amazing pump up/fuck shit up music.
