I broke down and bought this (total impulse buy). I've listened through once. After a slow start, I think it's pretty darn good. "Sierra Leone" is a fantastic track, as are "Gold Digger", "Crack Music" and "Roses". Sadly, Jay-Z's short feature on "Sierra Leone" shows just how far Kanye needs to grow lyrically. Jay-Z's 12 or 16 lines are probably the best on the album.
