RZA was a huge influence on Kanye and pretty much everyone that came after him (RZA), but I don't think Kanye and RZAs beats sound anytihng alike. I haven't read this thread, just something I felt like saying.

Sparky 06-11-2012 08:45 PM

Nah rza actually created some of the beats for him.

They def dont sound anything a like. This thread made me look at the kanye west production discography page and i gotta admit they'res only like 4 or 5 songs on it i actually like listening to, all of them from the past couple years.

mainest612 06-14-2012 01:52 PM

Do yourself a favor and listen to everyone of Kanye's albums. They're all great.

Surell 06-26-2012 12:19 AM

Don't let me catch Any One of you talking down Mercy.

CGderek 07-06-2012 02:06 AM

olaoluwakiwms 07-12-2012 11:34 AM

Petroley 07-13-2012 06:30 AM

I don`t like him at all.

Norg 07-14-2012 01:08 AM

SGR 07-14-2012 06:06 AM

Would you guys consider Kanye's debut as a must have album?

No. I recently spent some time giving his whole discography a shot and I wouldn't consider anything he's done to be must-have.

I think "Late Registration" is more of a must have.

I finally get it. Janzoon must be a Taylor Swift fan.

well would you say you liked any of it?

I can see if you don't find his stuff special (especially considering how alot of stuff released today takes on alot of things Kanye does) but if I may ask did you at least find some of the music enjoyable, like without the hype on it's own merits?

Not really. I liked the song "Roses" off of Late Registration, mostly because of the lyrics, but that was about it. Aside from that, everything else was just kind of there. Very little stood out for me. Every once in a while there might be a little glimmer of something interesting but it never seemed to develop into anything worthwhile.

TheStatic17 08-19-2012 05:00 AM

I disagree with Janszoon, I love Kanye but tha tis simply a matter of opinion and I don't want to start a fight. I agree with him that "Roses" is one of his best although Late Registration is almost completely auto tune. I really dig his other songs though.

Sparky 08-19-2012 04:11 PM

I watched an interview and apparently he only started writing his own material with MBDTF

Goofle 08-19-2012 05:04 PM

I was wondering how his lyrics seemed to be getting progressively worse.

Surell 08-28-2012 01:25 PM

If you look at the composition credits on Dark Fantasy though, it never goes to him.

Norg 09-03-2012 01:15 AM

OOOOOOO OOOO OOKKAAAYYYYY SWERVE !!!
i dont know why but arabic samples allways get me LOL

Mercy (Explicit) - YouTube

Soulflower 09-11-2012 05:16 PM

He use to be such a great artist.... I dont know what happened. It seemed after his mom passed his been acting strange and now that his BF with Jay Z is music has been pure trash.

I thought it was supposed to be some reggae song they sampled. Either way, that song was too hot.

I don't remember hardly any autotune in LR.

Sparky 10-08-2012 02:50 PM

Kanye makes some infectious noise.


I'll take this over ghost-written, "conscious", BORING, kanye any day.

so lucky his going out with kim kardashioan

Not at all. Sure, she's nice to look at, but she's as dull as a door. She has no depth to her. Nothing but her expensive cars and clothes and copious amounts of money. Would I nail her though? Absolutely. She's ****ing hot.

FX4Rick 10-14-2012 11:42 AM

I wasn't a fan until I heard My Dark Twisted Fantasy. Top to bottom, I love that album. Kanye cracks me up, too. His lyrics will have you scratching your head, like in Niggas in Paris - his whole verse makes no sense at all, but I LOVE it! I want to have dinner with him sometime to pick his brain......

wenwen 10-17-2012 02:32 AM

good song of him

Meh, we don't actually know that. Her spoiled rich girl persona could be something she does for TV. There could be a whole other side to her we'd never know unless we knew her personally.

Sparky 10-17-2012 04:02 PM

i saw the sex tape and her personality was neither profound nor interesting. Alas i could not bear to watch it in its entirety.

Zcard 10-17-2012 07:07 PM

Love him, hence the avatar.

holloway 10-18-2012 11:01 PM

Kanye is an artist when it comes to rapping and lyrical work. Just pieces it together. As for him being weak on the mic, yeah okay..

catsandmusic 01-28-2013 08:50 PM

Thoughts on Kanye West?
 
My personal favorite album is My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but Late Registration is a close second. :wave:

catsandmusic 01-28-2013 09:20 PM

i think his production is extremely good, and i really enjoy his rapping as well.
