"how c"an" you actually like his music?"

>>72475099
i was addressing the fact that it's a possessive pronoun.

as if the assembly-line music produced by the Kanye West Corporation™ was actually created by him.

>>72475189
Do you think all of that music would exist in any other form without him? Do you think an album like Yeezus would ever exist without him?

>>72475212
>Do you think an album LIKE Yeezus would ever exist without him?

yes. yeezus is an amalgamation of pop cliches that were current at the time

>>72475239
A lot of it is very much a contextual collage of ideas, like the horns on BOTL or the Chief Keef chorus, or the chopped up reggae on Guilt Trip. But that's been highly celebrated in the past, especially in hip hop.

Most of it involved taking those trends and totally deconstructing them and putting them back together in the album's image. It was also really inaccessible for a lot of the mainstream hip hop audience with its really sudden cuts and eccentric choice of sampling. I think its unfair to say anyone at any other time would have made something like Yeezus. Its much more than the sum of its parts.

waaaaaaaaa he ODB'd the grammies 8 years ago waaaaaaaaa

>>72475043
"how" can "you" "actually" like "his" music?

>It was also really inaccessible for a lot of the mainstream hip hop audience
the normiest people i can think of were shitting their pants when that album came out

>I think its unfair to say anyone at any other time would have made something like Yeezus. Its much more than the sum of its parts.
maybe. but i still don't see how anyone could think it's so special. it's manufactured pop that was created to sell to the masses. there's really nothing noteworthy about it.

the only reason why people love him is through the organized bombardment of the constantly reinforced idea that he's good

Music Publications:
>kanye west is great!
>kanye west is great!
>kanye west is great!

Kanye:
>Im great!
>Im great!
>Im great!

General Populace after prolonged exposure to this:
>hmmm.. i think kanye west is great!

it's an echo chamber that may as well be the hypnopaedia conditioning from brave new world

>>72475665
>it's manufactured pop that was created to sell to the masses

wow what an insight, it isn't like this applies to almost every album in existence

>>72475706
or maybe it's because he makes good music, jesus christ get fucking real

>>72475706
when kanye came out in 2003 with college dropot everyone agreed he was great

>>72475043
I don't

>>72475725
>>72475757
cool. have fun letting rich manipulative entrepreneurs shit into your mouth.

>>72475725
the idea of an album was to sell, get off your high horse faggot

>>72475878
no one has ever shit in my mouth, thats disgusting

>>72475878

>>72475878

If all you see when you look at this is a carefully marketed product meant for mass pop consumption, then you're blind and resentful.

>>72475969
i have never heard this opinion in my life

>>72475982
>resentful
