I agree with OP.
Future, Uzi, Travis, Gunna, Thug... all these rappers got a chance to drive s*** into the dust afterwards.
lol
You know what OP I agree but I think that These dudes aren’t rapping, they’re yelping like dogs, mewling like kittens, and drenching their voices in auto tune and after effects like the make up that paints the faces of the women they idolize in their videos and lyrics. Kanye West comes in with Yeezus and throws away everything the culture had been building up to with that point. Suddenly all these left field artists start taking over and Kendrick makes an album that is without a doubt one of the most important cultural masterpieces of the century for black rights in To Pimp a Butterfly. An album on which Kendrick himself states that the people will eventually riot in the streets because of the racial injustice going on still. An album that should be viewed as a cornerstone that captures the emotion of the ongoing world today. And yet it gets ignored because Birdman found some new young boys to spend unnatural amounts of time with. Because Kanye decides to tear down everything he worked towards and herald in a new age of artists that make A$AP Rocky look more Jay Z than Cam’Ron.
first album then
eh i don't see it tbh. kanye has always leaned into what's trendy (look at the features on his albums) but he tweaks it for the most part. plus the sound he went for on yeezus wasn't exactly trendy which is why his less dedicated fans started to claim he fell off and the record got more love from "internet rap" fans
"Because Kanye decides to tear down everything he worked towards and herald in a new age of artists that make A$AP Rocky look more Jay Z than Cam’Ron."
Where on earth are you getting this from
Love how the excuse for Yeezus being trash is it being "left field"
Did you even read or understand any of the arguments in OP
let me say this yezzus is first time kanye was chasing trend not creating it
still the best ye album
What bout graduation and 808s and arguably college dropout
