I think Kanye has reach the frightening point in every artist's career where he really has nothing left to say. He's achieved the success, he has the trophy wife and is living the life he always dreamed of.

Fortunately, he has a legion of fans who will take anything he creates and label it genius, so he can keep pumping out lackluster albums until he's no longer "cool".

And Drake is kinda guaranteed a Rap legend. This entire decade is all him. Lols. He will be known as the rapper of this generation. The crossover appeal, the hits, the everything.

It has been proven that he uses ghostwriters. He will never be a legend, he'll have the same legacy as Milli Vanilli.

[G.U.Y. Gaga]

I like most Kanye albums

But Yeezus sucks

that era made me love him
its my fave bc of nostalgia tbh

I still use Flashing Lights & Good Life from it. I'd say it was his most popular era radio-wise. When I was younger I used to hear his hits all the time.

Ultralight Beam is ofc the best song on TLOP

You're confused with Nicki.

kanye needs another 808/Grad type of era

omg imagine if he retired after dropping MBDTF. legend status confirmed

MBDTF will always be my favorite. That album is grandiose and maximalism done RIGHT.

Graduation is very solid, hit after hit, mainstream Hip-Hop with great lyrics.

I've always loved Yeezus and it'll always be #3 regardless.

808s and CD switch places with me all the time, depending on my mood. 808s doesn't have a Slow Jamz or a New Workout Plan or a Through the Wire, but if my ***** is acting up and I pop in Coldest Winter > it pushes up 808s a rank, but again, CD is better on a normal day.

LR is EXCELLENT, and it's only this low because it's my least favorite to listen through all the way.

I think Kanye has always done a great job at this, but at what point does maximalism turn into something overcooked?

808's isn't even a personal favorite of mine, but the impact it had on the genre makes it deserving of all it's praise.

same thing with Jay-Z
he really has nothing left to say
that's what i can't hate MC...HG all that much

but Drake for some reason peaked with Take Care

I go back to Yeezus more because it aged well, it's one of his most sonically cohesive works, and it has Hold My Liquor, Blood On The Leaves & Black Skinhead.

808 is his 4 with hits

[ToLove]

I would totally continue stanning for FLAKE if he didn't pander so hard to social media. I can just picture him in the recording studio looking up statistics on college students a la Adobey and what they're currently into so that he could revolve as many potential hashtag catchphrases as he can for his next track.

Nicki doesn't use ghost writers (her ex-***** was credited on the **** he was a part of), and she'll easily be considered a Rap icon since she's no other woman has been able to touch her in 7 years.

the outro

[slw84]

Yeah Kanye is a legend. That's one of the main reasons why he can get away with being how he is because at his worst his music is good but 97% of the time it's exceptional

I wonder if future generations will have Beyonces, Britneys, Pinks, Adeles or Kanyes, Jayz, Drake's, Eminems, Adeles

Gaga is an undeniable icon but she does remind me of the cyndi laupers, xtina's and demi's of their generation where they should be in line for such an accolade as a legend of their generation but they just made too many missteps along the way

!
I've always said Take Care is his best album and it still is. I don't think he peaked creatively, but he hasn't been saying much of anything with his last two projects

Yeezus > MBDTF > LR > TCD = Graduation = 808s = TLOP

I get what you mean in reference to MBDTF, but it's really done right. It's not as forced as some of the tracks on WTT, for example.

Ugh you're such an ODH (Obsessed Drake Hater). Not his fault he's the new Beatles and everything he touches is a hit + he controls media like no other artist.

You need to take it up with the public.
