Genuinely a bit curious: did other people refuse to vote for Yeezus on principled grounds, or is it just that everyone else hasn't spent the last ten years going around singing "In a French-ass restaurant, hurry up with my damn croissants!" and "When I parked my Range Rover, slightly scratched your Corolla" to themselves?

I've never been a Yeezy fan tbh, which you could probably guess by my playlist above

Listened to that Prefab Sprout album Crimson/Red again this morning. By god it's good

I dunno, I'm definitely not familiar with most of his catalogue either but I think Yeezus is by a long way the most industrial album he ever released, the one-two opening punch of I Am A God and Black Skinhead is just fantastically abrasive:

I'll have a listen
