TALK TO THESE NIGGAS

Also a lot of rappers do production in the same way Rick Ruben does production and just dont take credit for it

Why do you need to derail every single thread? You gotta learn how to shut your f***ing mouth sometimes, site is awful when flooded with your stupid ass s***

Just finished first listen, didn’t spoil anything for myself.

What an amazing album

T the GOAT

he finally executed them

More life experiences to write about from a natural standpoint

When you blow up at a young age you stuck in arrested development.

And You can just live life as a human and not being forced to be watched during your biggest developmental years which in itself is jarring to how human beings supposed to live as that inflates your own ego thus affecting the way you view normal activities

Like…say housewrecking as a regular degular thing instead of it being reprehensible

That’s why I specified “rapping” vs. “hip-hop artist”

It’s two different skills, the same way being a vocalist and a “x genre artist” as well

The artist/rapper distinction sucks

They are all artists.

Kirk Franklin too, I'm like aye nigga you gooning and making some Jesus tunes?

confusing grating song

its about his hairstyle? idgi

And for most of Kanye’s career he actually doing the production

Q-Tip really has some of the GOAT 'babies'

Dude put J-Dilla on, inspired P & Kanye heavily etc etc etc
I could go on but those 3 already are such titans

Tyler SUCKS!!!!! F***

Its not just about rapping though, rapping implies a focus on just lyricism or flow

Everybody I just named is a top tier artist even if they dont make beats

I really despise that argument thats like a white mans perception of rap

glo???? wowwww

Not to mention Outkast bonded over being Tribe fans

Q Tip is the God!

Tyler clocking everyone’s tea including himself on take your mask off lol

Just saying, everyone involved says Kendrick was very much the director in how tpab was as far as sounds go.

How?

It’s the same if you argue who’s the better singer/vocalist and who’s the better artist.

Whitney Houston arguably is the greatest vocalist of all time, but I don’t think most people would say she has a better catalog than like a Stevie or Prince for example

Need thought I was dead (bass boosted)

That's real sh*t right there
Word bond, you spitting

Yeah I’m not talking about them as lyricist or rappers

I’m talking about everyone I just named as an overall artist
