I liked the album, it sounds really different to what US artists usually do. It´s not original in any way though, since i felt it was inspired a lot in m-flo and other japanese musicians (Kanye actually recorded with Verbal from m-flo and Teriyaki Boys, so it´s not a conspiracy theory)
It is very clear that inspiration for all the latest Hip Pop originated from 8 bit. Since garbage artists forgot how to elevate your mind with rhymes...
@PsycheE: Copious amounts of autotuning and bitcrushing does not 8-bit make. BUT, Hip Hop HAS certainly taken a hit in the last 15 years or so. Of course, honorable men may differ.

It's actually growing on me. I thought Kanye's other albums were stupendous and I'm trying to give this one it's due course.

I'm intrigued....can you give me some more specific examples??
I'm a huge Teriyaki Boyz fan, and have been to four m-flo concerts....and I am yet to make the connection.
