A decent "pop" hip-hop album
This will be short but sweet. So much hip-hop today, almost all of it is garbage. There is an overflow of so-called rap artist in todays music market, and hip-hop is being destroyed. Even though Kayne West is more in the "pop" areana of hip-hop, this album is pretty enjoyable and catchy. Kayne doesnt lay down wanna be gangster tracks here, so he gets bonus points just for that. The sampling of some of the songs is done well, and the lyrical content of the album is solid. Perfect? No, Solid, Yes, and worth a listen even for non-hip hop fans or those as myself who mostly like oldschool (almost everything up to 2002, then after, most everything sucks) might enjoy some of the catchy tracks
Overall Grade- B-

I think Kanaye just graduated to where the big boys play
Kanaye West Graduation is the first cd of his I have ever bought or even wanted to buy as his release approached I was looking past his effort to a man who had held my attention for several years 50 cent . So I picked up 50's effort first and while not as strong as his first efforts I felt it was still a solid effort but as I heard more of Kanaye's effort stronger, welcome to the goodlife and flashing lights really moved me to purchase this cd . Seems to me Kanaye kinda reinvented himself and atleast to me put out a better product . I would say he narrowly edged out Jay-Z for best rap cd of 2007 . Kanaye spits inpressivly and beats are strong while bring in T-Pain for good life appears to have been brillent . Go out and get Graduation

Mr West does it again
Ok lets get one thing straight, Kanye is one of the best out there. Since coming on the scene with College dropeout he hasn't stoped. Kanye is one of the only artists to get better with time. Graduation is easily Kanye's best album to date. Every track on this disc is a classic. When I first heard drunkin hot girls, I couldn't believe it. Had to rewind it several times. I hate all the people that say Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive. Haha, lets get one thing straight Jay-z is and will always be the greatest, case closed. Kanye deserves all the good things that come to him. On this album once again he invites you into his world. You hold your breath on every line he says. Lyrically Kanye isnt the best, but damn this man is creative. I love Kanye, I love what he bodies. Sure he is cocky, but lets face it he can be. Thank you Kanye for releasing another hip hop classic. Thank you Kanye for all you do for Hip Hop.

Thnx Fr Th Mmrs
26th October 2007, Dubai Media City! Try imagine The Beatles' concert in the 60s, Bob Marley's in the 70s or Michael Jackson's in the 80s. I never had an NBA ticket for a Chicago game in the mid 90s... but this time, the dream came true! I bowed in the presence of Greatness; Kanye West! Well, lost my assets there but the tragic accident could not prevent me from spitting "Jesus Walks". I felt like Zachary up in that tree, above the agitated crowd eager to attend his graduation...

"BEAT" me into submission, MASSA KANYE
Finally a rapper I feel comfortable with, as a white college student. Most rap doesn't speak to me but if you put some cutesy animals on your cover instead of rims and hoes, NOW you got me. He's like SCI-FI and you know that's what we white boys are into. He may not have much street cred but whatever, everyone knows if you want to make it big , you have to sell to white kids, and KANYE IS GOD. Scratch that-chck-a-chck-a whck, BIGGER than god. I was amazed when I went to his concert and he said, "We don't need another white person as president, we need a black person." It's so cool how he simplified politics down to black and white like that. He is the greatest artist alive and ALL you haterz are just jealous you can't flow like him, or however you quantify the vocal prowess of "rappers" these old school days. ......ihatemyself
