My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is the fifth studio album by American hip hop artist Kanye West, released November 22, 2010 on Roc-A-Fella Records. Recording sessions for the album took place primarily at Avex Recording Studio in Honolulu, Hawaii during 2009 to 2010. Production was handled by West and several other record producers, including Jeff Bhasker, The RZA, No I.D., and Mike Dean, among others. Following a hiatus from his music career, West worked on the album through a communal development that involved him and various other musicians and producers contributing collectively to the album's music.
The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 496,000 copies in its first week in the United States. It achieved respectable international charting and produced three singles that attained chart success, including US Billboard hits "Power", "Monster", and "Runaway". Upon its release, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy received general acclaim from music critics, earning praise for its varied musical style, opulent production quality, and West's dichotomous lyrical themes.
Kanye West’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy sashays away with Rolling Stone’s #1 album of the year on their list of the Best Albums of 2010, but the music mag’s toast for this reformed douchebag doesn’t end there. West’s epic track “Runaway” also tops their list of the year’s best singles, and his thumping throwdown jam “Monster”, in which Rick Ross, West, Jay-Z and Nicki Minaj all one-up one another (in that order), comes in at #10.
