m02stpWas speaking of peak Kanye. The Kanye that made Jay Z’s beats. Pay attention.
He definitely carried him through BP3- WTT, on top of that Hov and Bey bit Ye’s high art aesthetic HARD, and they’re still riding it to this day (ex: mchg, apeshit video)

I was watching an interview with stand up comedian Bill Burr about his role in the show Breaking Bad. When he was praised by the audience for his performance (especially for having no previous acting credits), he humbly explained that you could literally put ANYONE in a show with that perfect of a script and it would make them look good. The show itself was so good that it made inexperienced actors look like geniuses.
I question whether or not Jay Z would be half the rap legend he is today if it weren’t for Kanye’s beats. Similar to Burr, you could put the s***tiest rapper on something so perfect (a Kanye beat for example) and it would make him look like a king.
Conversely, put any Jay Z verse on, say, a very basic, flat, underground hip hop beat and it just wouldn’t hit the same.
What do you guys think? We all know Kanye carried Jay Z through the latter part of his career, but exactly how much? What would Jay’s rap career looked like if Kanye never existed?
No he’s not. I am not a big jay fan but he is very good at rapping. Maybe you don’t like his style but he’s still great
Maybe I agree that he’s not as good as some say but that’s just my opinion. I also personally think Kanye our raps Jay Z in WTT pretty much every track. Kanye outdid Jay Z in my view but that doesn’t mean Jay z isn’t a good rapper it just means Kanye can out do himself

you gotta be a special breed of to say that.
Jay legitimately has 4 classics (RD Bp1, Black Album, 444) and Volume 1-3 are dope, One half of Classic WTT and American Gangster is fire. Kills a bunch of guest verses - Nov 27, 2019
What about the R Kelly albums
