Who do you consider the artistic geniuses of our time to be?

[KiD WavE]

The way Kanye puts together an album is so perfect to me.

I gotta agree Kanye is a musical genius ... not the best rapper but that doesnt matter all that much within his music

 

[FLORIDA BOI]

Do athletes count as artists? If so, Lionel Messi

Mr. Illmatic,NaSty NaS Escobar:naswon:

 

[stealthbomber]

only person i consider is Kanye West and Tupac

everybody else was great but those two are by far imo

n when you think about it they both represent two totally different styles of successful black men

both are/were/is at the top of their game as well as dictatin what the game does/needs/wants

this + pharrell

 

[VerbalIntercourse]

RZA and Havoc (mobb deep) change the musical landscape forever.

Their sound became the sound of Hip-hop to me at least.
