he is a big part lol

We just got two different definitions then

I remember liking that one mixtape that had the lime green cover

If the song was PARTYNEXTDOOR featuring Drake would it have went #1

Technically yeah but everyone knows it went #1 because of Carti

But if Ye didn't take the song then Ye wouldn't have a number one song on his mid ass album???

i disagree. Drake built his brand through being liked by everyone. Kanye has a strong dedicated fanbase because he was the highest quality pop star since MJ/Prince i'd go back further but don't want to deal with the controversy

people will pay attention to Kanye's musical output for the rest of his life. At some point releasing music will become a detriment to Drake's in the same way it currently is for Cardi B

that's fair. my point was that Rich the Kid was able to rap a coherent, real verse and that helped the song. Countless rappers could have, but RtK fulfilled that role

edit: Kanye tried to "Carnival"-ize Like Dat and it sucked because no one rapped well on it. had someone come in before kanye and rapped well people would have been more accepting of his terrible bars

that’s not what songwriting is about lol

great choice. what's your favorite RtK tapes? who else do you want to work with?

let’s be honest, ye wouldn’t have a top 20 hit without RTK

i think it's the other way around

No. The PND reference track is cringe. Especially with drake’s weird “listen to me because I’m older” line

Bruh probably offa pill or sum 😅

What? I’ve never even listened to that sing

kanye stans sputtering in here lmao

“okay sure, some people don’t listen to Carnival for kanye.. but it’s NOT because of RTK either, it’s uhhhh… the other guys that Kanye made sing RTK’s parts with him. definitely not Carti either, i don’t even know any lyrics from his verse

what’s that? youtube metrics show people skip kanye verse after the guitar and go straight to the carti verse? wow, i’m hearing this for the first time.”

Everyone in any industry is going to claim as much credit as they can. I'm sure the 4th best starter on an NBA finals team thinks he was a major reason why they won. Even the bench players think that.

Rich the Kid claiming Carnival is much less absurd than acting like Post-Graduation Kanye is singlehandedly responsible for all the great music he dropped after that.

Somewhere around there is where Kanye started to become a brand.

Carnival is dogshit
Vultures is dogshit
Rich the kid is dogshit

i remember when vultures dropped because all the dumbest people i knew on instagram posted themselves listening to it.

I've never seen that before or after

also Carnival was a day 1 hit, they posted that song in particular. but guess it's only a hit cuz of tik tok

rich the kid isn't dogshit. the man in your avi would disagree with you.

We’re talking about what caused the song to go #1

It definitely was not Rich the Kid’s writing

The man in my avi signed like 20 dogshit artists

YouTube metrics also show absolutely nobody listens to RTK’s verse
