To begin with, this is NOT an album review. There are plenty of those around this cyber world that we dwell in to feast your eyes upon. However, this can be simply attributed to being a testimony to the ever-growing efforts of the man we know as Kanye West and his "Dark Twisted Fantasy." Simply put, the album where sexual desires, phoenixes crashing and rising, dreams of marrying porn stars, disconnections with society, aggression towards the media, and tributes to Michael Jackson provide as the makeup to a fantasy that has become reality through the theater of Kanye West's mind.
This perhaps may be one of the most ambitious albums in Hip-Hop history. The attraction and thrill ride known as "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" is an epic and grandiose look into the mind of one of the most controversial figures of the decade.
Has West managed to change the sound of Hip-Hop once again? Who knows? That is yet to be determined. However, his past history has proven that he has been definitely been an incredible force in the Hip-Hop culture as far as music and fashion goes. All the bells and whistles do not matter though. What does matter is his current achievement. "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" is quite possibly the most anticipated album of 2010. In due time, we will see if the hype of the critics and the media apply. This post may not have much focus and may be considered a meaningless rant, but believe what you desire. It can't be denied that Kanye West is back in true form. And with his library of albums, which include "The College Dropout," "Late Registration," "Graduation," the controversial "808's and Heartbreak," and now Dark Twisted Fantasy, West is sure to go down as one of the greatest Hip-Hop artists of all-time.
