The only time he is overrated is by Ye Stans. A new song, Superluva, just leaked and KTT went crazy over it. Its some trash and was unreleased for a reason. I love Yeezus but always admit when he does something wack.

Wow what A comeback.
And yeah he's rightly rated as a producer(one of the greats) and very overrated when it comes to MCing.

He's overrated by some and underrated by some.

I'm not sure there's a dominating over / under final view on him. I will say that I think the praise he gets is valid, and deserved, and I also think he doesn't get enough credit for the amount of artistic visionary and aesthetic context he adds to his music.

Though, I definitely feel he's underrated as a lyricisit.

If Ye is an average rapper, so is Pac. It isnt all about rhyming and punchlines.

And post-rap was a term i used to describe a type of rap that uses more musical and songwriting aspects compared to just beats and lyrics. Dont be ignorant. And up lifted sound? MBDTF is a very dark album...

Oh hey I don't agree with everyone's perceptions of how they view an artist but feel the need to be a worthless contrarion, so I'll just call him overrated.
