Andre 3000 can actually rap and sing well though...

For as much shit as people talk about Kanye and how many "L's he has," there seems to be a new thread about him every day.

Kanye Wins

All he does is compare himself.

If he's so great why does he always have to user others as a reference for his greatness.

Why is he just not... HIM.

He also needs to make more revolutionary music before thinking he's Walt Disney or Steve Jobs lmao. Outside of creative production (woooow, lmao), where the fuck are his conceptual moments of brilliance?... some contrived metaphor about him being from another planet over him interrupting some slut at an awards show? Really! That's it? :laughing:

There is no lyrical, or conceptual or thematic WOWs or showstopping moments. And I'm a Kanye fan. But he just makes GOOD music, not groundbreaking or revolutionary or truly exciting music IMO.

not in this case. Yeezus was polarising at first because people were reading SO much into it. They were making it better than it was. Basically, all the Yeezus fans were suffering from a rapgenius type of syndrome.

Now he is exposing himself as a materialistic bitter man.

Just read that only 4500 out of 19 000 seats got filled for his latest show.
Another L for Kanye
Bet his fan base are getting sick of the dude and his pointless rants.

No just no, first I have hard time with anyone saying they are at Pac's level, not necessarily just because of the talent he possessed but because of his impact on unmatched status as an Icon in rap. As for Andre, Kanye is not even close. At the top of his game Andre is one of the most creative and dopest lyricist to ever grace Rap. Kane will never reach that lyrical status in my opinion.
