I mean to me, without a doubt Ye is the greatest rap artist ever. From him being a great rapper, to the production, the songwriting, the discography is incredible. Everything really, the dudes got it. His flaws are balanced out by where he excels. I guess its sort of a "He exceeds rap" ( I hate saying that) type of thing. He'll never be branded with the greatest rapper of all time title, but he'll be in the conversation for musician.

Kanye undeniably has the best discog of any rapper

Kanye West is the greatest muscian of all time

Kanye West, to begin with, is probably the best rapper in the game at the moment.

In his first three albums, The College Dropout, Late Registration and Graduation he blended soul music and hip hop to create three classic albums. In his 4th album 808s and Heartbreaks, he doesn't rap however his singing conveys so much emotion that it deserves to be mentioned anyway. His latest solo album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is personally

my favourite as I believe it has the best production of any rap album ever and it is lyrically near perfect. It is definitely the best album of the past 10 years and is a masterpiece. With such a discography it is only common sense for Kanye to be at number one and the Goat.



Get Yeezus christ brehs

Greatest producer of all time

Greatest rapper of all time

No1curr, Kanye the GOAT

Kanye West, the GOAT

This whole generation are less talented Kanye babies.

The dude managed to sell plain white t's to suburban kids for over 100 bucks a pop.


GOAT

Goat, op with fax only

That's true, but we ain't talking just being "successful". We're talking about selling out shows and being the biggest and hottest in the game.

Hottest In The Game Cycle Since 1990

2Pac & Big --> Nas ---> Jay ---> Ja Rule ---> 50 Cent ----> Kanye ---> Drake

Is Drake the only major rapper with ghostwriters that doesn't have a classic album?

Kanye - check 3x minimum
Diddy - check 1x
Dr. Dre - check 3x (NWA catalogue)
Snoop Dogg - check 1x
Eazy E - check 1x

Eazy has 3 classics breh

@Yoda

[Cabbage Patch]

idk what you're trying to say but

I just can't imagine them fukking.

[Rigby.]

The general public should have rode with 50

Ride with shytty music over a GOAT for no reason brehs
Make a good album or start dying 50 .

 

[Rigby.]

Ye: First 3 albums and MBDTF are classics

808s and yeezus are some of the most experimental albums ever

No reason to infer we don't need the guy

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

I just can't imagine them fukking.


And are those legwarmers?

looks like they cut holes in the jeans, I guess to be... edgy

this is the fashion icon these 90s babies look up to

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

well he is the GOAT. But, not MC. I doubt anyone will say that.

I just quoted people saying that
you're neg on sight status from now on

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

I'll give it another spin tonight.

did you change your mind?

Kanye brought alot of good things to the game too. I can't blame him for Drake. On College Dropout he did an incredible job of telling his own story. It was totally Hip Hop. He wasn't killing people or selling drugs or gangbanging, but that didn't make it soft. There's 1,000's of nikkas that can rhyme that could have made an album like CD with the same circumstances. Most nikkas that listen to hip hop aren't doing all that violent shyt anyway. Kanye was just one of the first guys to tell his story without feeling the need to add anything that wasn't about his life.

Nah that's totally wrong.
He wasn't the first to talk about these "down to earth" and "every man" type situations.

Backpack Rap is based entirely on that and guys like Little Brother and Danny! as
well as several others were making Hip Hop in that vein when Kanye was popping.
The difference is Kanye had a platform because his sound was hot.

When you've got that sorta major label push you can reach more people but the down side
is people tend to get the idea that you're the "First" or the "Only one" doing something
just because you can reach ears that your peers couldn't hope to.

I remember when I was going to school at HCC and people were doing audio engineering. All of them were on that tip, trying to emulate that sound, rocking backpacks and shyt. Had mad cats on myspace that were emulating 9th Wonder and spitting like Ye, starting to abandon that mixtape flow. Hell Redman did it, Digital Underground did it, Pharcyde did it, ATCQ did it way before Ye did, and they had one hell of a fanbase as well. Ye benefited from that new college crowd that liked indie music as well as hip-hop-right place right time.

Drake never had the makings of a top tier lyricist
