A lot of people hate Kanye. Personally, I respect the guy. He's another one of the very few artists today who not only pretty much exclusively write their own material, but produce it too. Sure, his lyrics might not be particularly good (hell, they bad, man), but his mixing is top notch and there aren't that many producers in hip-hop today with either his style or his panache. In the end, the choice is simple: you either tolerate mainstream rap, or you don't. If you do, then you gotta have some respect for Kanye, because he's a head and shoulders above most of the competition.

I don't particularly like his music, but he knows how to survive in the world of mainstream hip-hop and profit from it. Good for him.

Kanye West tends to piss you off a lot less if you're not sitting in your room bombarded my MySpace News.

I love everything he puts out, I don't buy anything but I enjoy him quite a bit.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

He pisses me off as a person, but I wouldn't want him dead, because then he woudn't be able to make more music, and I like his music a lot.

Definatley. Check out Graduation last, It's a lot more overdone, with less actually good tracks.
