Fans of Kanye West clapback at a music publication for naming his album on number one as the worst album made by genius artists

“This is a horrible take man”- Fans Call Out Publication for Ranking Kanye West’s ‘Ye’ As the #1 Genuinely Horrible Album of All Time

A music-based publication has given out a verdict in their worst album list, and
fans are not happy. While everyone has their own views when it comes to music,
there are some creations known to be good ones. One such creation was an album
by Kanye West. Though he was been drawing a lot of flak lately for his
controversial comments, fans as well as fellow artists appreciate his musical
genius.

Music-based publications often give out lists of the top best music/ albums.
While they often split fans over the list, a recent list by Rolling Stones
[https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/horrible-albums-by-brilliant-artists-1234672895/kanye-west-60-1234674969/]
seems to have united everyone against them. They ranked his 2018 album Ye as the
worst one. Why? “Because it marks the beginning of the most disastrous artistic
and personal collapse,” explained the magazine. They even marked his Jesus is
King song as the lowest moment in his career. 

When Rap TV reported the new list and Ye’s album being featured in it,
twitterati decided to take a stand. Undoubtedely, has sent questionable things
in recent times, but should his opinions overshadow his musical genius? His fans
do not seem to think so.

FANS ARE CRITICIZING A PUBLICATION FOR RANKING A KANYE WEST ALBUM IN A LIST OF
THE MOST HORRIBLE ALBUMS

There are several factors that decide on a good album. Profits, views, music,
and presentation are some of the main ones. But what happens when music is
ranked based on the musician’s personal opinions? The twitterati erupt in
opposition. That is what happened when the Rolling Stones ranked Kanye West’s
Donda Ye album number one in their list of “50 Genuinely Horrible Albums by
Brillant Artists.”

Fans were quick to dismiss the list, calling it a “horrible take.” While some
called the magazine out for the list, others pointed out specific tracks from
the album that, according to them, are iconic.

People who loved the Ye album quickly called out the list, claiming that it had
some amazing songs. Another fan pointed wondered how they could rank it like
that after listening to the album’s song list ‘Wouldn’t Leave’, ‘Violent
Crimes’, and ‘Ghost Town’. While one fan feels that the magazine has ranked him
low for his controversial statements during interviews, without listening to his
music.



The Ye album was released in June 2018 by G.O.O.D music and distributed by Def
Jam. It topped 2018’s Billboard top 200 List and was critically acclaimed.
Meanwhile, the magazine ended its explanation by claiming that Ye has made music
less vital due to his controversies.
