This is the first Kanye album I’ve heard, was memed into it as a psychologist. It’s bad, but crazy. The lyrics are shit, but he never had good lyrics. He alternates chest beating and talking about his swag, wife wearing no panties, but then nitrous fucked him up, his therapist can’t handle him, his kids think he’s not sane and there’s jews lurking at every corner… Real enviable shit right there. Then it’s Hitler, Jesus, Kanye like a schizo moussaka. There’s next to no bars, rhymes are not landing and have to be propped up with a “unh nigga”, rapping too fast for the beat as if it’s about to unspool forever, the cloying autotuned voice that might as well be AI-generated for how synthetic it sounds, just abysmal all round. Songs are like a minute and a half but they blow their load instrumentally in the first 20 seconds. The beats are generic and démodé, kind of noughties style with too many layers of strings and whatnot.
It’s clear mental illness. It’s like stumbling on a weird SoundCloud or YouTube channel with <100 views, where the person is going through a psychotic break. Someone needs to get him off the nitrous and in a hospital; he can probably afford the kind of place that isn’t One Flew Over the Cookoo’s Nest.

That’s because it probably is.
Kanye released four good albums and then coasted until he killed his mom. We’re just seeing the end of a long spiral.
Arguably 7.
And yes, his money allowed the surgery but its not like he forced her into it.
