So just as a rap producer as a statement thats already huge. As a producer you should get the uniqueness of that. It adds to the coheision as we explore the dark parts of Kanyes ego.
Then the songs all flow together as a whole quick 40 minute perfect album. Every track is entertaining and original and extreme and rewarding. There is no filler track. Not one.
There is a line that goes through that makes each song sound better than it does on its own. The pace and energies are very meticulously placed and designed.

It gives it a very potent humanity when all those come together as a reflexion of our own ego and the human condition.

How can one construct something if they cannot deconstruct it.
