Best Songs Off Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
"Runaway" literally broke my scale, due to the fact that it is one of my favorite songs of all time. The lyrics are very sincere; most people will not admit that they are "a*******" and that they "always find something wrong". I felt like I could really relate to Kanye, as I feel like a constant critic also.
On the other hand, the instrumental was perfect, due to its pure simplicity. From the initial piano playing at the beginning of the song to the violins at the end of the song, the beat was outstanding. It could have not been any better.
If I had to change one thing about this song, I would probably shorten the length of the outro. Even though I enjoyed it, I did feel like it dragged on for quite a while, and the song would be better if it was a little shorter.
No doubt or question this is Kanye's best songs on the album, maybe one of his greatest songs. The fact that he can make an outro 3:00 long, the length of one of his top songs "Jesus Walks", while still feeling like the end of the songs says something about how Kanye is a master at creating masterpeices
This is one of Kanye's deepest songs. This should definitely be number 1
Genuine and beautiful song with an amazing outro.
In my opinion, the best song on here. Better than Runaway, which was a bit overlong and repetitive. Nice conscious lyrics and very grandiose beat.
Great beat and great lyricism with great flow! What more could you want?
I absolutly hate Nicki Minaj but I have to admit she carried the song good job.
Nicki Minaj makes the song
Kanye's best verse ever
It took hundreds of hours and I can tell. So much production and features but somehow not overproduced. A massive hit and sounds amazing.
Best Kanye West song of the 2010s, it was great collaboration with Rihanna and Kid Cudi.
One of the greatest beats ever and some emotion on display from Mr. West in the verses.
Second best Kanye song ever! How is monster ahead of this?
His most underrated song
Perhaps one of the greatest album openers of all time. Mesmerizing vocals, and it sets up the album so well. It's beautiful.
One of the greatest album openers of all time
One of the best openers ever
The amazing sample coupled with Cudi's hauntingly beautiful hook and deep lyrics cement this in my mind as one of the greatest
Underrated. Clearly underrated. Old style song that deserve to be higher on that list.
Cyhi is amazing... So underrated, Pusha is good tier as well. Jay has an amazing verse as well that isn't far behind those two, and Kanye takes the bottom spot even though his verse is still great
Production is top notch and guitar solo is insane but not Mike deans best (hold my liquor wins that). Lyricism is meh so that brings it down a bit.
Best soul-sampled Kanye beat he's ever made. Also one of the best songs on this album, after runaway, monster, dark fantasy, and power.
This song is amazing in every way. Rick Ross's verse is the best of his career.
Severely underrated, but every song on this album is brilliant
One of his most emotional. I know many don't like the Chris rock outro or maybe find it funny. My perspective is that it's sad since the Kanye lyrics beforehand are him hearing a guy on the other end of the phone talking to his girlfriend like that, showing him being cheated on. That's one of the saddest most depressing feelings ever and I relate heavily. Apart from that ending, the song itself is very depressing for those who have been in toxic relationships.
So melodically powerful and extremely sad at the same time.
Underrated track
Best song ever
The best song
Goes very well with the actual song, I wish they were fused together
