    Because I always feel like people define rappers differently.. like, actual rap skills.

    Kanye’s a great rapper when he’s not rushing out verses the day before his album drops

    As a rapper I don't hold him in very high regards. As an artist and musician I used to think he was amazing. His run was short but sweet to me. Today he's just another reality star who has no clue as to what he's doing and hasn't for MANY years.

    I don't get why people have such a problem with that lol. Judging him purely for his rap 'skills' is different for me than him as an artist overall (production/artistic vision etc..)

    Listened to Yeezus the other day after 3 years. A GOAT album by A GOAT rapper/producer.
    He's deffo the GOAT producer. Dr Dre hasn't done what Kanye has done.

    How many classics? Probably 2. LR and MBDTF
