Even a harsh critic would be hard press to say that Kanye doesn't have classics (College Dropout, Late Registration, and My Dark Twisted Fantasy are classics in my opinion). To say that he doesn't even have one is ridiculous. He's been the most important rap artist in the past 10 years and it's not even close, truly. He's the guy who dared to challenge the popularity of gangster rap and was successful at it. When College Dropout dropped in 2004, the game was changed forever and I doubt I can find someone with an objective mind to tell me much different.
