Hip Hop Heads
 
Whats your take on Kanye? He's critically acclaimed, but I'm curious as to what people who listen to more than mainstream rap/hip-hop think of him.

I listen to some underground hip hop/old school stuff and I honestly never gave a crap about him. He isn't terrible, I just don't care enough to go deeper based on most of the stuff I heard that he put out.

He is a crazy talented producer and a decent rapper. From time to time he has great lines. A lot of people talk like he is the greatest ever, but I'd say far from even top 20.

Through The Wire is my favorite Kanye song. The new Kanye doesn't appeal to me at all

Rap from the heart. I am a big fan of Kanye, he raps from the heart and allows it to be an open book.

Hasn't had a good song since Through the Wire imo.

Talented.

The Naitch 09-17-2010 10:28 PM

he comes off as too whiney

I listen to pretty much every level of hip hop (ie both underground and mainstream) and he is, "imo", the best producer in the history of hip hop (except for maybe Madlib). He's not as bad of a rapper as people make him out to be...he's got some clever puns and punchlines that only he could pull off and some that are so horribly stupid that I actually love them.

Most any song on any of his albums could be a single, and I keep finding gems that I hadn't given a second thought to before.

Favorites: Can't Tell Me Nothing, We Don't Dare, Head 'Em Say, Crack Music, Good Friday, Gone, Amazing

We all self conscious, Kanye just the first to admit it.

FakeLaser 09-19-2010 08:38 PM

He's good.

OssMan 09-19-2010 10:05 PM

I dislike him a lot
