No matter how much it bothers you that Kanye has ghost writers and producers, you are a hypocrite if you trash Kanye for it but still think that Dr. Dre's "2001" is a classic album

Nobody compares Dr. Dre to nas, or jay, or pac, or Michael Jackson for that matter. 2001 can be called a "classic" while putting Dre and his role and more importantly his placement as an MC/artist in the proper context. This is not what is going on with kanye.

No-one runs around callin Dre one of the GOAT emcees and he never ever proclaims that he's even a good rapper...nikkas know Dre's role and he lets it be known..problem is this nikka Ye acts like he wants to be mentioned wit the GOATS of this rap shyt..and it's really a new day n age where nikkas just don't give a fukk about rhymes no more...this rap shyt is done...

And also..for the nikkas sayin Ye writes and the other nikkas bounce ideas...no..it's the other way around...the other nikkas write for the most part and Ye bounces the ideas and the shyt he wants to say...he's not doing majority of the writing...

I don't follow Hip Hop very closely anymore so I guess I didn't realize that people were trying to say Kanye was a GOAT MC. I don't know why anyone would say that.

I always assumed that the argument that he was a GOAT ARTIST....in which case, having co-producers and co-writers doesn't go against that claim. All that matters is the finished product and if it is better than other work in the grand scheme of things.

Even being one of the pitchfork-reading-indie-rock-listening-cacs that most people claim overrate Kanye, I don't even think he has ever topped Graduation, that is his peak to me. 808s is wack, MBDTF is overrated, and I don't think Yeezus is going to be any better than an 8/10 once I get a few days to digest it.

Nah he's been/being debated right along with cat's like jay/nas, not only on the boards by but in the reviews.

Some Douchebag said:
"Yeezus is the appropriate title for such a masterful piece of work. This isn’t music, this is high end art. On Yeezus, Kanye West proves to be godly. With this album, Kanye ascends into the Parthenon of music gods transcending god’s son (Nas) and the god MC (Jay) of his own genre. Amen."

:snoop:

"nah see you gotta listen to it with your left ear to the speaker to catch it right, it's piccaso, it's audio cubism" :skip:

And i'm not trying to beat a dead horse, I wish it was another release so the people who don't like it can move on, and everybody else could continue to jerk each other off. People sitting around waiting to make yeezus threads just to complain are just as bad as these "make sure your headphones are in 3/4 of an inch" ass nikkas.
