#KANYE WEST MY BEAUTIFUL DARK TWISTED FANTASY DRAWING SERIES#
To help market the album, West released free songs through his weekly GOOD Fridays series and four singles – " Power", " Runaway", " Monster", and " All of the Lights" – all of which were top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100. Guest vocalists on the album include Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Bon Iver, Jay-Z, Pusha T, Rick Ross, Kid Cudi, John Legend, Elton John and Raekwon. Thematically, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy explores West's status as a celebrity, consumer culture, race, and the idealism of the American Dream. Critical commentaries note the resulting music's maximalist aesthetic and opulent production style that utilizes various elements from West's previous work, including soul, pop, baroque, electro, and symphonic sounds, as well as progressive rock influences.
The album was produced primarily by West, alongside a variety of high-profile producers such as Mike Dean, No I.D., Jeff Bhasker, RZA, S1, Bink, and DJ Frank E. Additional recording sessions took place at Glenwood Place Studios in Burbank, California, and at Electric Lady Studios and Platinum Sound Studios in New York City.
Retreating to a self-imposed exile in Hawaii in 2009, he recorded the album at Honolulu's Avex Studio in a communal environment involving numerous contributing musicians. It was released on November 22, 2010, by Def Jam Recordings and Roc-A-Fella Records following a period of public controversy for West. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is the fifth studio album by American rapper and producer Kanye West.
