In a recent Instagram Q&amp;A session, Rock reaffirmed his affection for the album. When probed about his preferred album, Rock emphatically declared, &#8220;My favorite Kanye West album is My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy&#8221;.

In the midst of the passionate praise for &#8216;My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,&#8217; a contingent of fans stood their ground, ardently championing &#8216;College Dropout&#8217; and &#8216;Graduation&#8217; as the true gems in Ye&#8217;s musical treasure chest.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
While Rock&#8217;s fervent endorsement of &#8216;My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy&#8217; received widespread admiration, a faction of fans could not help but raise their eyebrows. They playfully poked fun at Rock&#8217;s comparison to Michael Jackson&#8217;s timeless classic &#8216;Thriller&#8217;. Further, pointing out the humorous irony of his &#8220;MK Ultra blonde hair phase.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Some fans dissected Rock&#8217;s admiration. A distinct faction playfully suggested that the comedian&#8217;s presence on one of the album&#8217;s tracks might tint his praise with a hint of bias. The essence of objectivity was questioned by those who jokingly argued that when one is a part of the masterpiece, loving it wholeheartedly becomes an unwritten rule.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
Because he is in that album and Kanye made him work like crazy

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Rock&#8217;s camaraderie with Ye added an intriguing layer to this debate. Further, highlighting the intriguing dynamics of friendship, art, and musical expression. Yet, amidst the jest and playful banter, one thing remained unassailable— the album&#8217;s enduring impact in the world of music and its undeniable place in the hearts of fans worldwide.
