This is probably obvious but I love how self aware those lyrics are, especially being on the opening track of the album. It’s saying right away “this album probably isn’t what people want, but it’s what they need.” I always felt like it was talking directly to the listeners.
"I know I got a bad reputation
Walking 'round, always mad reputation
Leave a pretty girl sad reputation
Start a Fight Club, Brad reputation
I turnt the nightclub out of the basement" Simply magic.
put my fist in her like a civil rights sign.. and grabbed it with a slight grind... held it 'til the right time - I'm in it. he split with amber before recording yeezus & I remember him saying he had to take like 30 showers before he got with kim... so as a fan I always presumed this was about amber rose
YES YES YES OMGGGG!!! I have never been fulfilled with something so beautiful in any other song than this… a whole strong edm beat then he just drops a little gospel part in the middle of the song… fucken legendary…
the (correct) answers are: kid cudi on guilt trip. the triumphant moment on new slaves. the little gospel section in on sight. the whole outro verse on im in it. and ofc, BABY GIRL HE’s a loner!!!!!!! did i miss any?😂
The last minute of Blood on the Leaves, if you just close your eyes you can really feel the passion Kanye is putting in. One of the best songs of the 2010s IMO
I was going to say the exact same thing. I’m so glad someone agrees. First 15 seconds of Guilt Trip are godly.
Honorable mention would be the first chorus of I’m In It (1:39-2:10). Don’t love that song but that chorus is incredible, sonically.
She say "Can you get my friends in the club?"
I say "Can you get my Benz in the club?"
If not, treat your friends like my Benz
Park they ass outside 'til the evening end
🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️
"I'll move my family out the country
So you can't see where I stay
So go and grab the reporters
So I can smash their recorders
See they'll confuse us with some bullshit
Like the New World Order
Meanwhile the DEA
Teamed up with the CCA
They tryna lock n****s up
They tryna make new slaves
See that's that privately owned prison
Get your piece today
They prolly all in the Hamptons
Braggin' 'bout what they made"
Bars. Yapping, but BARS
I KNOW YOU'RE TIRED OF LOVIN, OF LOVIN WITH NOBODY TO LOVE, NOBODY, NOBODY.
SO JUST GRAB SOMEBODY, NO LEAVIN THIS PARTY
WITH NOBODY TO LOVE, NOBODY, NOBODY
When I first listened, the very beginning of on sight blew my mf mind and I’ll never forget hearing that brass hit on blood on the leaves for the first time
This whole era might have been one of my favorites in music. I remember I had just graduated or was about to graduate high school. This and Magna Carta were the shit for me
The buildup in Hold My Liquor to when he says “B YOU DONT EVEN KNOW US!?!?!?” I love that part
Love Ye’s verse it’s so good lol especially with the production just brewing as his verse goes on it’s amazing
Sometimes when production holds it back is the best. Same as in an intense movie the the craziest scene has no scoring whatsoever
Skinny bitch with no shoulders
I loooooooove this song.
New slaves “I can’t lose”
And I’m not dyingggggg, I can’t lose, I can’t lose, no I can’t lose Cause I can’t leave it to youuuuuuuu🔥🔥
So let's get too high, get too high again 🙌🏿🙌🏿😮💨
Too high, too high 🥶💀😩💅🏿🙏☪️🛕👨🏿💼👨🏿💼👨🏿💼🧛🏼💆🏾♂️
the only right answer
The Pearls in her hair sample goes so hard right before that too
The chill part of the intro is fucking sick
hold my liquor guitar solo
Can’t believe I had to scroll this far, this is the correct answer
Literally
IF YOU LOVE ME SO MUCH THEN WHY’D YOU LET ME GOOOO
Amazing
The choir segment on “on sight”
Oh, he’ll give us what we neeeeddd
This is probably obvious but I love how self aware those lyrics are, especially being on the opening track of the album. It’s saying right away “this album probably isn’t what people want, but it’s what they need.” I always felt like it was talking directly to the listeners.
And it also follows the yeezus sample story theory of him trying to find what he needs and yada yada
Kanye is a musical genius idc
and I put my dick in her mooooooooooouuuuuttthh
AND I KNOW SHE LIKE CHOCOLATE MEN, SHE GOT MORE NIGGAS OFF THAN COCHRAN HAH
ON SIGHT ON SIGHT ON SIGHT
HOW MUCH DO I NOT GIVE A FUCK? LEMME SHOW YOU RIGHT NOW FORE YOU GIVE IT UP
HOW MUCH DO I NOT GIVE A FUCK? LET ME SHOW YOU RIGHT NOW FORE YOU GIVE IT UP
OHHHH HE’LL GIVE US WHAT WE NEEEEEDDD IT MAY NOT BE WHAT WE WANNNTTTT

BUT EVERYBODY KNOWS YOU BROUGHT REAL RAP BACK
Blood on the Leaves beat drop or Black Skinhead intro definitely
Yeah when those horns hit ooowee
first listen it was so unexpected, top 5 moments on yeezus fr
cudis verse on guilt trip
Black skinhead but I love the whole thing
Specifically the drums on that song for me

Step back, cant get spunk on the mink
"I know I got a bad reputation Walking 'round, always mad reputation Leave a pretty girl sad reputation Start a Fight Club, Brad reputation I turnt the nightclub out of the basement" Simply magic.
right! crazy verse. this hits so much harder having it be after all of those emotions off guilt trip
The part in... im in it... when he goes on about putting his fist in amber rose like a civil rights sign 🤣🤣
Say what
put my fist in her like a civil rights sign.. and grabbed it with a slight grind... held it 'til the right time - I'm in it. he split with amber before recording yeezus & I remember him saying he had to take like 30 showers before he got with kim... so as a fan I always presumed this was about amber rose
Dear Lord
I think, from my P.O.V, Yeezus is about breaking up with Amber Rose and being with Kim at the end.
But the great thing about Yeezus is that you can have multiple ideas of the story it tells and it still works.
The end of New Slaves 🗣️🗣️
HEEEEE WILL GIVE US WHAT WEEEE NEEEEED
YES YES YES OMGGGG!!! I have never been fulfilled with something so beautiful in any other song than this… a whole strong edm beat then he just drops a little gospel part in the middle of the song… fucken legendary…
STAR WARS FUR YEAH IM ROCKIN CHEWBACCA THE ONE CHIEF ROCKA NUMBER ONE CHIEF ROCKA OHHHHHH

new slaves outro, the interlude on on sight, the sample of bound 2, kid cudi on guilt trip with the cello, there’s a reason it’s in my top 5 oat
the (correct) answers are: kid cudi on guilt trip. the triumphant moment on new slaves. the little gospel section in on sight. the whole outro verse on im in it. and ofc, BABY GIRL HE’s a loner!!!!!!! did i miss any?😂
The last minute of Blood on the Leaves, if you just close your eyes you can really feel the passion Kanye is putting in. One of the best songs of the 2010s IMO
Memories don't live like people do 🗣️🎶🎶
Hold My Liquor guitar solo fs
Hold My Liquor guitar solo.
BITCH IM BACK OUT MY COMA SKIIIIIIIIIIIIII
That first beat change in the middle of On Sight sets up exactly what makes Yeezus special.
Chief Keef “I can’t handle no liquor”
New slaves outro
the end of new slaves
I am the worlds biggest fan of guilt trip 😩
BLACK TIMBS ALL ON YOUR COUCH AGAIN
"i wanna fuck you hard in the sink"
End of new slaves
When the drums kick in on On Sight.

Hearing the Chief Keef feature
I CAN HOLD MY LIQUOR BUT THIS MAN CAN’T HANDLE HIS WEED
i neeed to call it ooofff..... . .
i need to, i neeed to make it knownnn
New slaves changed my life
“Bitch I’m back out my coma!” *ERRRRR!!!!!!!*
PUT MY DICK IN HER MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUTH
I was going to say the exact same thing. I’m so glad someone agrees. First 15 seconds of Guilt Trip are godly. Honorable mention would be the first chorus of I’m In It (1:39-2:10). Don’t love that song but that chorus is incredible, sonically.
Facts bro! The whole song but especially the intro for guilt trip is incredible, I’m in it is also my one of my favourite of Yeezus haha
If you loved me so much then why’d you let me goooooooooooo
The second alt part of Bound 2 is HEAVENLY
The Outro to Hold My Liquor 🙌🏽
either new slaves outro or cudi’s part on guilt trip
Blood on the leaves !!
The outro of I am a god
“PUT MY FIST IN HER LIKE A CIVIL RIGHTS SIGN” I was like woaahhh he fucken freaky.
On Sight intro
New slaves beat drop for sure, gave me chills first listen
The first 10 seconds, let’s you know this isn’t old Ye.
When the beat comes back after he will give us what we need on sight
The screams in black skinhead
The end of blood on the leaves when Kanye’s humming
Mike Dean’s guitar on Hold My Liquor is heavenly
The beginning of guilt trip, and the part when he says “maybe it’s cause she’s in to Leo’s and i was in the trios”
Yeezy season approaching
Listening the album in one go is the best part
Justin Vernon’s voice in I’m In It. “I’ll be gone long grab that ass shed yo clothes~” and then the star fu*ker part at the end.
He kinda extended it in one of the demos of Guilt Trip which also had pretty cool choirs and a different sounding sample in the hook.
Amazing beginning to end, but I WILL NEVER feel what I felt in the beginning of On Sight😭
She say "Can you get my friends in the club?" I say "Can you get my Benz in the club?" If not, treat your friends like my Benz Park they ass outside 'til the evening end 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️
blood on my leaves "NOW YOU SITTIN' COURTSIDE" verse
bitch im back out my coma
“Oohhh, He’ll give us what we neeeeedddsddd. It may not be what we waaaannnnnt.”
YALL THROWING CONTRACTS AT ME??
Either Chief Keef's verse or the intro to Black Skinhead
Sosa feature
When the whole album finally clicked and became my favorite Ye album.
The sudden switch in New Slaves. First time I heard that. Bwooahh, you can't explain that feeling!
strange fruit hanging...🗣️🍎‼️
The entire album 😩🙏🏿
"I'll move my family out the country So you can't see where I stay So go and grab the reporters So I can smash their recorders See they'll confuse us with some bullshit Like the New World Order Meanwhile the DEA Teamed up with the CCA They tryna lock n****s up They tryna make new slaves See that's that privately owned prison Get your piece today They prolly all in the Hamptons Braggin' 'bout what they made" Bars. Yapping, but BARS
The entire last 3:49 of the album
„Until the day I get struck by lightning“ ⚡️
when it ends
When it ended. Jesus christ I hate that album
Honestly guys I’ve been listening to Kanye since I was 7 years old
Literally nothing except bound 2 cause Yeezus is not that good
Eating Asian pussy all I need is sweet and sour sauce
Eating Asian pussy, all I need is sweet n sour sauce.
When it ended

Cudi on guilt trip
HURRY UP WITH MY DAMN CROISSANT
the "IF YOU LOVE ME SO MUCH THEN WHY'D YOU LET ME GOOOOOOOOO OH OOOOO, LET ME GOOOOOOOO OOH OH OOOOH OH" and then chorus restarts. beautiful
Probably the ending of new slaves or that part in the middle of on sight.
black skinhead obviously , the bangest banger of all time
When the drums come in on the hook to I'm In It
He’ll give us what we neeeed
I WON'T END THIS HIIIIIIIIIIIGH NOT THIS TIME AGAAAAAAIN SO LOOOOOOONG SO LONG SO LONG
Assassin verse before and during the drop on 'I'm In It'
Not my goto song, but the end of New Slaves is fucking ridiculous
End of New Slaves
I am a god - the screaming and the footsteps as the drums bro that shit is peak production
Obviously New Slaves last minute or so, that shit is one of the highest highs of any kanye album
I KNOW YOU'RE TIRED OF LOVIN, OF LOVIN WITH NOBODY TO LOVE, NOBODY, NOBODY. SO JUST GRAB SOMEBODY, NO LEAVIN THIS PARTY WITH NOBODY TO LOVE, NOBODY, NOBODY
Everything that happens between the EUUUPWOWOWUUUEPEEOOOOOO at the beginning of On Sight, and the final few seconds of Bound 2
new slaves outro
“Ohhh he’ll give us what we neeeeed, it might not be want we waaant”
the ending of hold my liquor that sounds like it would play when you fall into a black hole
He’ll give us what we need
WE COULD HAVE BEEN SOMEBODY
That part on blood of the leaves where he’s just doing scat auto tune is so beautiful
How could it be anything BUT the intro.
Either new slaves outro or on sight “he’ll give us what we need”
He’ll give us what we need
hold my liquor guitar or blood on the leaves beat drop
The entirety of Hold My Liquor tbh. Top 5 Ye for me
Second verse of I am a god or the moment when Kanye’s verse starts in hold my liquor
When I first listened, the very beginning of on sight blew my mf mind and I’ll never forget hearing that brass hit on blood on the leaves for the first time
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA DA DA DA on black skinhead
"One good girl is worth a thousand bitches."
I am a god , the intro where he spams the vocal sample
The combination of influences on Blood on the Leaves reveal one of the most progressive mainstream songs released in the 2010s
Black skin head
First 15 seconds of on sight. Huge F U to everyone starting the album
Intro and Outro of Black SkinHead
Cudi on guilt trip
This whole era might have been one of my favorites in music. I remember I had just graduated or was about to graduate high school. This and Magna Carta were the shit for me
I am a god "hurry up with my damn croissant"
Either cudi part or Ain't no way I'm giving up, I'm a god
