In My Mind went Gold, but the album didn't get rave reviews.
What was the innanets view of the album? I wasnt really on like that yet.

Kanye and Pharrell basically crafted this new generation of rappers all about their fashion and vanity...
but Ye is a pop superstar and Pharrell is still just a mega producer...

Because Pharrel decided to not join the Illuminati and now his career is suffering because of it.

In My Mind was wack tho :scusthov:
He should have stuck to singing and not trying to be a rapper

Kanye's albums aren't even comparable to Pharrell's in the first place, part of a solo career is obviously dropping good albums and Pharrell's shyts have all been mediocre. Plus Kanye wanted to prove people wrong more than anything and probably spent more time crafting his rapper skills than Pharrell, and most of Pharrell's hits were on features or on production anyway, Kanye has hits across the board.

Pharrell has been and was always focused on creating lanes and not making any claim to them.
