What is TRShady's opinion on Kanye West?

[momentsgolden]

I love his music. One of, if not THE best discographies in hip-hop. I just really have a problem with his use of ghostwriters/ ghostproducers. Think about some of his most iconic works

Jesus Walks- apparently written by Rhymesayers.
808 and Heartbreak- largely written by Kid Cudi
Power- did not even find the sample. Just added some music to an already done beat.
Some of MBDTF Cruel Summer- Cypha tha Prince and Pusha T writing for him.

Yes, it makes for good music but we dont respect Dr Dre as a rapper do we?

[EG.]

He's a great songwriter, has very well-rounded lyrical skills, awesome flow/voice/delivery, amazing discography, obviously an amazing producer, and has been the best Hip-Hop artist in the past 8 years. He's my 4th favorite rapper.

Somewhere along these lines

he's my favorite artist

Ye's worst song >>>>>>>> Big Sean's whole career... haha what does blu think of that now?

I think Kanye is great, I think a lot of you just don't like him because of his personality but his music is great.
He's a hypocrite, and an ass but there is no denying that Kanye's music is great. But I have to admit his music is at a decline as of late, but still good

I hate on him a lot around here but I actually like him just don't think he's amazing.

I don't think most of this is true. It's rumoured that he had help writing Jesus Walks, and Kid Cudi Co-wrote some of 808's. They both put a lot of work into that project. Not sure where you're getting the MBDTF stuff though or the ghostproducer rumour.


I love Kanye West. He's my favourite rap artist and has the best discography in rap imo. MBDTF is a tied with CD as his best album imo.

@Geno, that means he didn't write anything, but that doesn't make it not his work. He made it in his head.

In the Kanye West interview / deleted scenes with Ice T from his movie The Art of Rap, he said he has never written anything down for his 1st 4 albums, but on MBDTF he "really wrote it"

Maybe it is true.

Nah he just means that he just went into the booth rapped whatever was in his head.. Jay-Z says he does that as well. Hate when he says he does that though, highly doubt it's true lol. He HAD to write some stuff down.

I think most people would agree that Kanye is a great artist. I think most people would agree that his die-hard fans are stupid, obnoxious assholes too. I guess some associate Kanye with his batshit insane fans, and therefore they hate him too.

[ShadysDisciple]

Overrated producer, shitty lyricist, horrible human being, ignorant when it comes to politics, his mom was a ugly as shit that had surgery and his dumbass son killed her, If Martin Luther King were alive he would of slapped this ***** some sense, he fucked up a doors sample cause he is a classless piece of garbage, cult leader, dude has no swag wears the ugliest clothing I ever seen in my life overall a disgusting human being.

Weren't you in love with Kanye like... a week ago?

[Blu]

Hahahaha, sorry guys, I meant to say that the OP is TR's general opinion on Kanye (which was supposed to be a joke).

Guess you all mistook that for my opinion (which is completely inaccurate).

[Mahmoud48]

kanye is the best artist to ever walk this earth

[Solace]

I like Kanye, not a huge fan or anything but he's tight.
