bunch of coli heads will denounce Kanye cause that's the cool thing to do on these forums and they love old hip hop too much
dude pushed the genre forward in terms of musicality and progressive music for over a decade, made tons of hot tracks with virtually everyone who is anyone in the industry, reinvented himself and his music for every single album, has tons of awards, recognition, plaques, you name it, for his contributions to music. he forwarded the genre and contributed a ton to the culture. he helped expand hip hops palette.
songs like blood on the leaves, devil in a new dress, all falls down, jesus walks, good life, etc are timeless
he's pretentious and married Kim K so these dudes wanna judge the quality of his music off of that for some reason. idk why but whatever
