Has anyone ever made a chart based on who has been influenced by Ye?

I think it would be cool to see a visualization of the Artists/Albums/Songs that have been influenced by Ye.

If so, I would love to see a link.

he’s got a lot of influences. for instance raf simons on 808s. you got margiela for yeezy clothing especially season 1 alongside raf. michael jackson is another. prince too. portishead for late registration as well as fiona apple. a tribe called quest. biggie. nas. hov. tupac is arguably one of his biggest influences. mase is an influence he said himself he took mase’s flow. alejandro jodorwosky influenced yeezus cos of the holy mountain. phil collins and tears for fears for 808s. helmut lang for his first few yeezy seasons

i’m probably missing a few but that should cover the main ones 🤷🏿

good post

prince might be his biggest influence in general

Lauryn Hill/Prince

Damn this is impressive, especially the Fiona Apple one given he took Jon Brion from her

how could i forget lauryn

ye always reminded me way more of prince but i think ye likes mj more tho

he even said he holds her in higher regards than lauryn

oh s*** i forgot all the stadium rock so s*** like u2 and i’d say daft punk etc influenced graduation. yeezus is all the producers on there like arca hudmo who influenced it. pablo was very influenced by metro and southside the emerging new sounds they got ye to change up the album to make it less futuristic in their words.

I think the question is who Kanye himself has influenced.

Jay-Z
Mase
Dr. Dre
RZA
Prince
J Dilla
Tupac
ATCQ

Scarface

that question overdone and been answered a grillion times

mobb deep influenced mbdtf ye wanted his mixes to be like that

he even hung up a sign during the sessions that said what would mobb deep do

RZA is another one as a producer & the whole backpack crew he use to roll with
