Basically the album theme is explained on the cover and the title. It's about Kanye's struggle with keeping a balance between a Christian family life and the superstar lifestyle that's why it says which/one on the cover and why there's a photo of a family as well as a model with a big booty, why there's a gospel sermon immediately followed by a song with lyrics like "I wish my dick had a gopro" abs why he's talking about bleached assholes on a track called Father Stretch My Hands which samples a gospel song. It's all about the duality. But the themes of the album also represent the 3 Pablos (Saint Pablo, Pablo Picasso and Pablo Escobar) whose different characteristics Kanye identifys with

I'm kinda fortunate to discover the likes of Kanye, Tyler, Kendrick and the Weeknd at the "middle" of their carrers (around 2014-2016). Fortunate because I'm able to appreciate the old shit they've done but also experience their growth as the years go by
TLOP is a retelling of Saint Paul's journey from sinner to saint. The album is divided into three acts, Pablo Escobar, Pablo Picasso, and Saint Paul. This is then obviously paralleled by Kanye's journey from abrasive celebrity to family man.
broo thank you for doing this 🙏🏽 i’ve been waiting for this album since it’s my favorite kanye album , great reaction love the content keep this up , had to sub and leave a like after this, much love bro you’ll make it
Ever since i came across this album on my brother's xbox back in middleschool, always been my favorite of his. That was my first real introduction to kanye and I hadn't heard anything like it at all.
Kanye 2049 isnt a real kanye album, its fan made using other kanye songs. kanye didnt make it, but its popular in the kanye fandom. might spoil other albums if you listen to it first
also on Pt.2, it samples Desiigners "Panda", which is obviously a famous song in its own right, but the timing was pretty weird. At the time kanye sampled it, it wasn't really popular, and for most people was first heard from kanye, and then after that, desiigners version blew up as its own song
thank you for the info!🙏🏾 ill probably have to do any other albums first before 2049 then, and yeah that is strange isnt it, so possibly because of Kanye’s Pt. 2 it got Panda more noticed?
There are many hints in the music and the production and this is a condensed version of Kanye himself as a Bipolar gemini. U can check out Bob The Poppop’s reaction on this and I agree with his understanding of what’s going on in this album.
That's Max B on the interlude calling from prison he's a new york street rapper that was know as the "wavy one" cause he was so wavy lol, and surfers ride waves so people started calling him the silver surfer
