A solid 8/10.
It has great, famous tracks like Runaway, Devil In a New Dress, POWER and All Of The Lights, I highly recommend this for Kanye fans that want an authentic experience when listening to this album.

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing !!!
Personally before I purchase an album, I listen to it on YouTube to make sure that I liked the song.I have always been a big fan of Kanye West since falling in love with his 'College Dropout album' so I knew that I wouldn't be disappointed with this album. The production of this record is fantastic and you can tell that a lot of time and effort has been placed in this.Here is a track by track review of the album to give you a little insight:1. Dark Fantasy - Love the intro and the chorus as the voices harmonise beautifully. You initially think that it will be a slow song but when the bass kicks in and Kanye starts, you know that this is going to be a typical head-nodder. Good start to the album 7/102. Gorgeous - This song is a grower. At first I didn't see what the fuss was all about but Kanye, Kid Cudi and Raekwon all bring something to the song but it is an album filler at best 6/103. Power - Love this song. Love the darkness infused with electronica and it is easy to get quite hypnotised with this song, impossible to refuse its beats. Love Dwele's voice and input and the last minute and a half is my favourite part 9/104. All of the Lights (Interlude) - Only one word could describe this - beautiful. The strings on the instrumental is gorgeous and I wish it would never end. I must have repeated this about 10 times when I first heard this. Sends me chills whenever I hear it and people may only think of it as 1 minute and 2 second interlude that has been placed there as a filler, but the inclusion of it on the official All Of The Lights video shows its importance. LOVE LOVE LOVE 10/105. All Of The Lights - Great song but the inclusion of all of those people (10 in total !) seems to go to waste - they could've been utilized more effectively. But nonetheless, great song with great production. Especially love Kid Cudi's part 8/106. Monster - Monster basically describes itself. MONSTER. From the haunting instrumental to the eccentric verse of Nicki Minaj. Rick Ross has limited contribution but should get more. Love this song 9/107. So Appalled - It's ok i suppose, pretty much an album filler to be honest 5/108. Devil In a New Dress - Love the flow of this song and both Kanye and Rick Ross shine 9/109. Runaway - Yet again another grower - a bit lengthy but a lovely song with a haunting instrumental 8/1010. Hell of a Life - As a bit of a rock fan, I was happy to hear that it has an influence to the production of this song. Good album filler 7/1011. Blame Game - The first time I heard this song, I instantly fell in love ! From the production to John Legend's soulful tones to Kanye's raw poetic lyrics to Chris Rock's fantastic section towards the end of the song, I cannot describe how beautiful and honest this masterpiece. I love the simplicity of the production and the sample of Aphex Twin's Avril 14th. This song has easily elevated itself into my list of favourite songs. Easily 10/1012. Lost in the World - Not really a big fan of this. Bit of an album filler. 6/1013. Who will Survive in America - Good outro to the album even though I feel like it was lacking something 6/10An overall rating of 7.6/10 is an official rating of the album track's based on averaging out the above reviews but i believe that the album flows very well so I would instantly boost that to a 8/10I was a bit late on the bandwagon so when it came to purchasing it, it was only £3.89 (with free delivery) which I was very happy with, especially given the quality of the album.I would definitely recommend buying this album as you will not regret it and you can't really complain at a price like that !Enjoy and I hope this review was helpful :)

one of the best albums that i listened to
as a kanye fan, this is perhaps one of the best albums that he ever made. sometimes kanye’s music helps me go through tough times and it can also motivate me.however, my only complaint for this isn’t related to the audio but for the case. i kind of expected the 3 panel case version with the poster, but this isn’t that much of a problem

Great special edition - Goosebumps
...Wouldn't exactly call it a limited edition though since they're still producing these 10 years later but still special.One of the best albums, if not THE best hip-hop album of the 2010's. I've got so much love for Kanye based on his limitless talent - he truly is one of the greatest artist of our lifetimes with an absolutely insane understanding of musical techniques. I think most people don't care to try and understand that this goes far beyond the music itself - the melting of fact and feeling, love and hate, happy and sad - duality and emotion which Ye seems to be able to paint a perfectly balanced yet vivid picture of using his chosen canvas of personal, social and societal reactivity and reflection, meanwhile never forgetting the most ancient of harmonic rules that predates all popular music, and bringing it up-to-date with celebrity culture by personifying and addressing society's bloodthirsty appetite for entertainment and consumption (in my opinion he goes on to illustrate this better in "Yeezus" - I think he discovered the amazing impact of the subtle or extremely distinctive comparison of feelings through the music).This is just scratching the surface of the harmonic association that Ye uses to make the audience feel emotionally connected to the feeling of the music and the tonality of the composition in the wider context of himself as en ego-driven entity, while simultaneously singing about the most absurd, abhorrent or mundane things... what does a minor note played over a happy lyric mean? Distaste? Disregard? morbid fascination? How does he make us feel so close, yet so far away from him personally? The emotional connection? The celebrity driven disconnect? The perspective of the lyrics? He never sings "to" you, it's always "at" you - it's always in the context of someone else: his partner(s), Jay-Z, the media, governments, art, fame, even his own thoughts... I keep discovering tiny nuances of Ye's personality on old tracks that I listen to and it throws through a loop trying to figure out what it all means - Hopefully I get there in the end :)

Album as described. Great price. Only complaint is delivery time (2 days after schedule). Overall very good

Great vinyl
Because of the 3 vinyls it has incredible sound, but sometimes gets annoying to flip every 2 or so songs.

A obra prima do Kanye
O melhor disco da carreira do Kanye, sem dúvida alguma.Essa edição ainda contém o pôster e as gravuras que podem ser alteradas na caixa, como um quadro.O som é excelente, as faixas Power, All Of The Lights e Lost In The World, que foram alguns dos singles são espetaculares.Ainda bem que pude aproveitar no limite do meu antigo som, visto que vou ter que trocar meu toca-discos em breve, para ter o maior aproveitamento desse disco.
