It is not often that you come across an albums with so many enjoyable songs. There are very few (if any) songs that could be seen as weak links. After his fantastic debut, The College Dropout, expectations for Late Registration were high. Kanye West did not fail to please. Late Registration shows more maturity than The College Dropout showing Mr West's evolution. Unlike many Hip-Hop albums, Late Registration does not focus on guns and hoes (a downside if this is what you were looking for), this marks a new breed of Hip-Hop.
The subjects of the tracks differ greatly. The album features the hit Diamonds From Sierra Leone and well as the remix featuring Jay Z. As well as featuring general Hip-Hop songs such as Touch the Sky (fantastically using a Curtis Mayfield sample), Kanye speaks of drugs and music in a way that is almost shocking (Crack Music), in addition Kanye shows heart in the songs Hey Mama and Roses. The album shows greatness throughout (as well as humour in the hilarious skits) and in no way does it fail to disappoint. Thank You.
