So apparently this is "Kanye West's dream team"

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

wow @ havoc.

 

[dre]

cool, eclectic list...but would've been better with a little Pusha T/Rhymefest/Consequence in there

not saying a lot

but a little.

 

[msa13]

Whatever happened to Miri Ben Ari?

 

[Doin2Much Williams]

Whatever happened to Maleek Yoosef?

 

[Big Mel]

Interesting that Mike Dean's rap-a-lot history isn't mentioned

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

Whatever happened to making music in groups smaller than 20

 

[noumena]

All this talent and he/they still couldn't make a good album

Cheers ye

50 fukking people for an album.
I mean really at what point does it not become ridiculous ?
Hell, I'd argue that more than 10 or 15 is serving to work against you and not for you.

If you need session musicians go for it.
If you need another pair of ears or an additional producer go for it.
If you want to feature multiple rappers or singers go for it.

If you're completely and utterly bankrupt of ideas and you're looking for someone
else to write your shyt. then it might be time for you to sit down

At least in Dr. Dre's defense on compton he helped to give a platform to a lot
of new younger talent and in that light it was similar to his previous albums The Chronic and 2001.

I mean really all those chefs in the kitchen just so Kanye can deliver a double cheeseburger instead
of filet mignon.

Aside from Fest, Pusha and Cons contributed. They're just not listed.

That list includes engineers and people responsible for things like string arrangement.

You've got to figure Kanye's main skill is vision and taste. His developmental music skills are rapping, singing, writing, sampler & drum machine. Even then he gets people to help him with all 5 of those. Then he's got people for keys. People for strings. Engineers and such.

An Arcade Fire album or a Mike Jackson album would have many people contributing to them too.

 

[Ronald]

the MBDTF team >>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[Capo Dei Capi]

Kanye is done musically

Stop comparing this nikka to MJ. Not in the same stratosphere. Creatively. Talent wise or anything.
