iTunes Review
College Dropout poses ethical questions about living poor and wanting (and achieving) more. ("I'll Fly Away," "Spaceship," and "All Falls Down" are prime examples.) There are moments of fierce determination on "Through the Wire" and "Never Let Me Down" that give the record additional lift. The Chicago producer aimed the magnifying glass inward to reveal a bifurcation of expectations as "the first nigga with a Benz and a backpack." On "Graduation Day," a voice chastises him for not making songs for the kids. "Jesus Walks" asks pointed questions about the role of religion in music. And West does this with a magician's sleight-of-hand, a generous amount of sweetener, and a cheetah's ear for hooks. Overhyped? Nah, College Dropout deserved every Grammy award it won and more.

Amazing!!!!! For real.
by RaeRaeLokFor anyone who thinks Kanye West is racist, one phrase sums you up "you're a dumbass." He honors real talent which Taylor Swift doesn't have!!! At all. All she sings about is shappy teen love triangles. We have enough of that cookiecutter uninspired crap on the radio. Kanye just tells it like it is!
So many great tracks on this album. Don't listen to the hater Taylor tremor bopper fans!
