808s & Heartbreak (Kanye West, 2008)
So glad I finally listened to this, it really bridges the gap between Graduation and Fantasy. Up there with his best work and certainly his rawest. I feel like if this had been released after Yeezus it would've been much more warmly received. Kanye eulogizing his mother in a stadium full of people screaming and shouting "I love you Kanye" is maybe his most defining moment.
Choice cuts: Heartless, Amazing, Paranoid
