Kanye West

[pocketrockets]

Shirley is the real deal..Garbage has been one of my fave for quite sometime

They rock man, their first 3 albums are off the charts, and the last one is quite good...

The guy has a whore for a wife and a direction for a kid. Who cares what the fuck he thinks about anything.

Kanye is a musical genius IMO, but he's an asshole too. Makes him marketable though. He knows what he's doing. You might hate the guy as a person but he's put out some genre-changing albums in addition to being in charge of massive hits over the last 15 years or whatever. When he was quiet and just making beats he wasn't making a ton of money.

You have valid points... I just feel really insulted when he says Beck lacks artistry compared to Beyonce... what a clown, Beck is one of the most versatile and prolific musicians of the last 20 years

I'll leave Kanye and Olive Garden to you Jake.

He's nothing as far as I'm concerned..not surprising you're giving him props

Yeah I'm not entirely sure what he meant by that. Dude talks out of his ass a lot.

Honestly I only thought Beck's album was okay. It's nothing groundbreaking. It sounds like a Moody Blues album. I'd give it to Beck over Beyonce.

Best albums I've heard in the last year:

Reuben and the Dark:

Run the Jewels:

Bleachers:

Ben Marwood:

Jake's OFFICIAL ALBUM OF THE YEAR (that he first heard in 2014-2015 that might have been released in 2013) goes to Ben Marwood. Best album I've heard in a long time.

He and I are both very interested in your opinion on this subject.

Love you RED EYE.

You're sick

 

[Albatross]

Kanye is dirt under Taylor swifts shoes at this point.

 

[pocketrockets]

I'd love to bitchslap him that's for sure

 

[JakeT.]

Kanye has done more for hip hop than anyone over the last 15 years. He's an asshole that's really good at pushing the genre to new heights. Most commercial hip hop is trash. His stuff usually isn't. If that makes me sick then I'm sick.

The guy is a dick with no class but he probably doesn't care. Next year hope he tries something again and someone just cold cocks him. That would also keep him in the news just what he wants. Just think how popular he'd be with a picture of him being carried out of the Grammys on a stretcher. I'd love it!!

I'm not sure about that..really.......

Let's not build a museum or even a statue for him yet Jake. It's like electing Russell Wilson to the Hall of Fame right now.

 

[texansfan]

Hip Hop, lol.

 

[MikeB]

I'm curious what his obsession with Beyoncé is. Ole Kim should get her man in line.

Jay Zee may want to pull him aside and have a word with him also.

Proudly, I couldn't tell you one song that douche bag sings or any article of clothing. Taylor Swift's dad should have whipped his ass 5 years ago (or whenever it was).
