you can't be serious

Remember, Ye wasn't that hood dude...he was pushing those every-day-man normal guy suburban but from a black perspective.

you can't be serious

Family business, hey mama, roses, never let me down, Heard em say..These were all very personal song that went against the grain of what rap was at the moment.. This was the era when G-Unit was popping...Kanye made it popular again to be more personal and realistic on tracks...Come on man, stop the hating for once

that's a different statement from "dude changed the game from how personal his songs were".

Just say: "I related more to his suburban shtick than the hood shtick."

Right. Which is why early Kanye fans were former G-Unit followers and general pop rap fans.

If all you know about rap is G-Unit, you'll think Ye was this personal, realistic rapper. But if you were an actual hip hop fan and listening to more rappers, taking in multiple perspectives, you'll realize that great rappers like Common, Mos Def, Nas (who were all popular in their own right) were already putting personal 'realism' in their music. They just weren't pop. They were hip hop. That's the difference. Kanye was pop.

they kinda went wutang on this

ghostface sample is no coincidence

no hook just awesome random bars

None of those songs were pop...Kanye was making real hiphop tracks that old heads bumped. He didn't make pop music till Graduation and at that time he stopped making personal tracks and started that whole grandiose lifestyle raps... Yes there were other rappers making meaningful music at the time, but they didnt make it to the mainstream like Kanye did..he influenced a generation of kids who only heard what was popping on the radio.

Y'all nikkas are always quick to discredit the dude

 

[New Username]

nikkas only hate Kendrick because of the control verse.

Drake stans on thecoli are anti Kendrick and hate whatever Drake hates

Atlanta wins again

Almost every single from College Dropout was within the Top 15 on Billboard Hot 100 (which is a pop chart by the way). Slow Jamz was the #1 song in the country at one point.

But Ye wasn't pop

Some old heads were bumping Ye but a lot, including me (I was in college when CD dropped) weren't. CD is full of grandiose materialistic and misogynistic raps like all pop rap songs on radio were. You're talking about a guy who owes a large chunk of his career to Jay-Z's cosign, one of the biggest pop rappers of that time.

Y'all nikkas are always quick to discredit the dude

We're quick to point out the reality of what happened vs the Kanye rewrite. Ye is a great pop rapper. One of the best the genre's ever seen. But let's not get it twisted. He was never and will never be a hip hop artist like that. Nas, Common, Wu-Tang, Tribe etc are worlds apart from Ye.

 

[Losttribe]

For Drake and Kendrick supposedly being the best rappers in the game I really cannot think of any memorable guest appearances save control. In my day () the best rapper always had like a two or three year run of great features. Even Ross has better features than those two

I agree

About ross

 

[Shadow King]

Be an idiot brehs

I'm the idiot?

 

[WickedGames]

Oh look, it's WickedLames cockeating another rapper for bars he probably didn't write

Remember yall, this is the same guy who was the biggest Drake stan now he act like he never liked the dude. Now Ye is is "favorite artist" and Kendrick his "favorite rapper"

I know this dude isn't over 18 with his chatty patty dikk hopping

The last time this guy tried to question I'm a Kendrick fan I offered to post pics of kendricks discog in exchange for him to stop posting and stop stalking me on the boards pretty much . He declined. Now he's back to saying I'm faking being a Kendrick fan. Glorious

Probably has mental issues. How can you be on message boards just to abuse people you don't know and post about artists you don't like. Shyts perplexing to me

Oh well, cook on beloved.

 

[HeruDat1]

False.

 

[Easy-E]

Ye my favourite artists and Kendrick my favourite rapper but YE GOT ON HIS RAP SHYTTTTT

Fukk ghostwriter talk, this YEEZUS. Quotbles for days

Textbook case of "guy-with-the-longest-verse-got-the-best-verse" Kanye rapped for 3 mins straight. And he was kinda stumbling all over the place.

 

[Hyperion]

I can't believe I read something so dumb so early in the morning

Probably didn't have his morning coffee.
