So basically the "if i like you, kanye has influenced you and if I dont, he hasnt"

Juice Melly and Keef said they where influenced by Kanye

Travis is still obviously influenced by Kanye

Kanye still influenced the big three Drake Cole Kendrick

90% of op posts and threads are just hate

Pretty sure Keef said his favorite album of all time is 808s

That’s the previous wave of hip hop

Juice is dead. Keef isnt apart of the new era. Hes also irrelevant. Melly might be influenced by kanye but doesnt sound like it at all. Hes clearly more inspired by future and thug. Especially thug. The big three arent apart of this era.

All of you need to stop posting in my thread if you are illiterate

Uzi is one but in regards to his music he’s just another product of Atlanta’s dominance

Travis, chance, uzi, pierre, shake, some of brockhampton, jaden smith, Denzel curry, X(arguable), juice

I see what you mean as far as things going back in a street direction but that’s just things changing, his influence not lasting forever doesn’t kill his achievements and what they did for a time

There are still some more recent artists with more of a Ye blueprint tho like Russ, and anyone with drake influence will count as Ye

Chicagoans respecting Chicagoans

They list Kanye as an inspiration yet they all sound like Young Thug or Future

A lot of people are really slow lol

Wavy santana really truly believes he is intelligent but suffers from the dunning kruger effect quite severely

This is why conversations about influence are trash, someone will say who influenced them but if he doesn’t sound exactly like Ye then it doesn’t count for you. Influence doesn’t have to be a carbon copy

So you’re saying they’re lying?

"Killing" was the wrong word.

So u can only be inspired/influence by one person ?

I'm not saying this at all.

So sby needs to copy ye to be influenced by him

Keef is a influence almost all young artists and Juice still has the #2 song on AM even if he passed away his music is still alive and on the charts

Who are you to say Melly is more influenced by Future when he himself say Kanye is his influence, you’re just trying to push your agenda

then I agree with you there. cant think of any rapper that came out in the last three years that are influenced by Ye.

your right so yeah this new group of rappers seem to be more influenced by Wayne, Thug and future

Wavy has a vendetta against Ye

every rapper is influenced by lil b, directly or indirectly

Na none of today's music would exist without Kanye. He didn't directly influence it, but he influenced the artists who influenced it. His influence just isn't as apparent but it's there. Same with Wayne.

Rap wouldn’t be how it is without 808’s Anazing Heartless Coldest Winter where huge hits

That’s the blueprint for artists like Keef and Speaker Knocker and eventually artists like Durk A Boogie Tecca Rod Wave ect
