Kanye's catalog is GOAT

kanye hahahaha

Kanye's catalog is GOAT

808 and yeezus though .. the only good thing about 808 is the production tbh ..

If he drops another wack album like yeezus you won't be talking about his catalogue anymore. Sorry, when he drops another wack album

I didn't like yeezus but it will probbly be "considered" as a great album since it's one of the most critically acclaimed albums of the last few years

and it grew on a lot of kanye fans, a lot of think it may be his best album

do you even know about the album ? .. there are many more like these shitty projects that get acclaim for being projects that "sound" different than what people normally want within a genre.

yeah I know about it, it's a storytelling album from the UK... one of my favorite albums but I didn't know it was acclaimed

Chris, a gawd

[Just Silver]

Fuck kanye

Scarface is the best artist on his list.

I always wonder if people are afraid to put personal favorites in the top ten/top 5 to escape criticism, though. It's easy to put guys like Jay, Biggie, 'Pac, Rakim, 'Face etc on their list. So, I always like when someone puts a guy like Kanye or whoever in their list. He's not even in my top 30, but I appreciate people being honest about their taste.

Too many people feel they'll be questioned and mocked if they put anyone outside the box on their list. That's why I appreciated Em's top ten in Til I collapse. Lots of people who he personally loves, not just conventional wisdom greats everyone must love or they aren't a "real" hip hop head.

kanye hahahaha
