    Dark Fantasy by Ye

    It's time to get higher—much, much higher. High into the clouds where we dissect the music of Ye. And in this particular cloud, we pick apart every single line, sample, and interpolation on the epic opening track Dark Fantasy. There are more lyrical tidbits here than food at Thanksgiving dinner.
