Is it himself? Is it his life? Is it an album about his life? Basically, the music here and Kanye West's personal life are pretty inseparable on this album. On here, he puts both his strengths and his flaws on display, and it kind of makes me wonder what his beautiful dark twisted fantasy is. The reason it's hard to ignore context on this LP is because Kanye's favorite thing to rap about is. But the more I listen to Twisted Fantasy, the more I kind of came to realize that that position is total and utter bullshit, not because Kanye's gaffes are so unforgivable that we need to scrutinize this album, using everything he says, that's not the case. It's a very similar argument I made when I reviewed M.I.A's last album. Before listening to this album, I had all this stuff just running through my head, things I would say to kind of preface this review, stuff like 'Hey, you know, stuff at the VMA's, the Today Show interviеw, the Katrina/Bush debacle, all thе media gaffes, and all that stuff' that's just context, man, it's not important.
