The ONLY Kanye West Thread (lyrics, hip-hop, rap, great song)

Kanye West is pretty good at what he does... I know that a lot of people have a problem with his method of sampling because he does tend to take large chunks of other songs. But he makes good use of them.

I think that the Daft Punk sample he's taken for Stronger sounds better in that context than it did in the original song, actually.

Graduation is a great album. He owned 50 cent with curtis

i hate that with rap there is a "Flavor of the week" i dont see him going too much further in the rap game

He's the biggest name in rap, and doesn't show any signs of slowing down.

Yeah, I can see him sticking around for a lot longer, even if he's just in the background as a producer.
