kanye claims to be a street nikka yet his moms was the head of the english department at a university lol as someone that grew up in public housing i never understand his thinkin i always thought it was dope that he was opposite of the rapper from the projects trope and represented a black excellence type vibe with the whole college dropout narrative

I don't think you listened correctly. He DID NOT say he's a street nikka. In fact, he said the reason why he took on the backpack role was because he wasn't a street nikka like that.

He said he wasn't a backpacker either. He listened to the street shyt. He hung around street nikkaz. He just wasn't active, but he didn't disassociate from them either.

And he contradicted himself by biggin up Dame and shytting on Kweli. they both helped him. the reasons he defends dame are for the same things he got from hanging with Kweli. Opportunity and credibility. Dame gave him the first consideration as an artist and he used Kweli for backpack cred and access to other artists before mainstream rappers was trying to view him as a rapper.

he is a hypocrite

How exactly Kweli "helped" Ye??? Dame SIGNED Ye and springboard his career.

What Talib Kweli ever do for Ye?

Okay, fast forward. So, Blueprint, "H to the Izzo," my first hit single. And I just took that proudly, built relationships with people.
My relationship with Kweli I think was one of the best ones to ever happen to my career as a rapper.

Those are Kanye’s own words from Last Call :yeshrug:

U misheard, he likes to hang around street dudes and likes street shyt. But wasnt a killa so he took the backpack route, but what he really likes is street stuff

So he’s a bigger fraud than people initially thought? Ok.
