Even if you're not a fan of the genre I think it's culturally important and worth the time.
The album was made in 2021 during a very turbulent period in Kanye's life. He was going through a religious transformation at the time and you can really hear it in the album. It's almost like a baptism of hiphop in a strange sort of way. I thought it was really uplifting. It subverted all the archetypes associated with rap and black culture.
