Graduation was a commercial and critical success, consensus has it as a great album everyone can have opinions in music, but when the vast majority doesn't agree with them I think that's when it's time for you to rethink your opinion.

How is the album with Big Brother, Good Morning, Flashing Lights, I Wonder, Stronger, Good Life, Everything I Am garbage? I'd like to know what about this album is trash?

"Brought in feminine Hip Hop and skirt wearing? Don't get props for that either."

This shyt is dumb and irrelevant :beli:

Kanye also has multiple classic albums, classic songs, Kanye's been relevant for 15 years, the reason KRS is better is because he's a better MC that's it. Why do you have to destroy Kanye, to big up KRS they are both great.

I don't care if it was a commercial or critical success, that's not what defines quality Hip Hop. KRS questioned whether the shyt was even Hip Hop.

I didn't say the album was garbage, I said the album was poor, lyrics are really awful, beats were samey and redundant at this point. Was ok at the time, now it's practically unlistenable. Some good/decent beats but that about it.

No it's not, because were trying to cite his influence in other non music areas, and he don't get props for that.

Kanye doesn't have any classic albums, the only arguable 1 is College Dropout and that's a 4 mic album. But that's the only album that is still good. Kanye had 1 good album, that's a whole year being good, KRS still dope now, that's decades...

They aren't both great to me, that's the point, KRS IS great, Kanye is an artist with some of the worst albums in music history of all time and some of the worst songs, an overrated artist with so much trash in his discography. Good producer, 1 good album and some good songs here and there, that's it, he isn't comparing to KRS.

dude literally called someone delusional and in the next sentence had the nerve to claim K-Rino as one of the greatest artists of all time. thats just sad.
lmao at KRS being better than Kanye - maybe to YouTube commenters but in the real world, kanyes music is galaxies ahead of KRS

K-Rino IS 1 of the greatest artists of all time, again, when it comes down to breaking shyt down it's obvious TO ANYONE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT (this excludes you obviously) that K-Rino is much better than Kanye. KRS IS better than Kanye, and anyone credible would agree, youtube commenters lmao. If this prick doesn't get negged to hell cause of this you motherfukkers lost and this site lost on a whole lol. The fukk you talking about? Lol. KRS in HIP HOP which is the genre we are discussing is leagues above Kanye, not even in the same galaxy, Kanye is Vanilla Ice compared to KRS-One and that's being kind to him. But what would you know? When you are self proclaimed not Hip Hop yourself and you "know your place", yeah know your place, on Kanye's dikk more than Kim and that's it, you're not credible to discuss anything in regards to Hip Hop.

The album is not poor...again the vast majority of individuals like the album you don't because you're a backpacking purist...you have a preconceived notion of what hip hop should be and don't analyze music objectively because of it. You have your niche of what you look like doesn't mean you have to shyt on who other people like.

You just called Frank Ocean and Drake trash as well... :snoop:

To you he has one classic album, if you made a poll how many classics does Kanye have I'm pretty sure more people would vote more than one. The one album you do give props to is probably the 3rd or 4th best in his whole discography to the average listener.

How does he have one of the worst albums and songs in music history :heh:

No, he doesn't have ANY classic albums to me.

You keep talking like the masses define Hip Hop, they don't, those with credibility do.

But even so, KRS got voted to have more classics than Kanye.... That's the real question. We can disagree on it but that's my opinion so.. and a bunch of others too, everything ain't what the masses say, I know many Hip Hop heads that don't think Kanye got any classics, everyone doesn't overrate him like The Coli does. I've never met anyone in real life who has Kanye as their GOAT. Don't agree with that either, people liked College Dropout.

And Yeezus? 808's?.... Got to be up there as some of the worst albums in music.

It obviously isn't undeniable as I'm denying it. It's the music, everything is about the music. If it was pure hatred of Kanye why would I give College Dropout props? Why would I say he has historically been a good producer? I voted him over Alchemist earlier, who I like his beats too. Why would I give props to Devil In A Dress beat? (before I found out he didn't produce it), why would I give props to some other songs he's done in the past? It don't add up, it's just cause I'm not on his dikk like you you equate that with hating. Just I'm not a brainwashed sheep and say my real honest opinions about THE MUSIC.

Basically, someone who has a pre-conceived notion of what hip hop should be, a very conservative hip hop listener.

What makes an album classic in your opinion?

Dudes do that all of the time on here. If you don't suck someone off unconditionally that someone else likes, then you're a hater. You can say " they are really good i like their music but they aren't revolutionary or anything like their fans say" and the homos will come at your neck nh

I don't have a preconceived notion of what Hip Hop should be. I'm really interested to break down this backpacking purist thing lol. What artists do backpacking purists listen too? What album and artists do backpacking purists have as their GOAT album and artist? Or top 5 artist?

Classic album, quality, and timelessness, an album you can play through and it sounds great years later. Because the quality holds up.
