Who is he modern Bowie?

*the

Unironically Kanye
I don't even like Kanye a whole lot and love Bowie, but really who else could it be?

Good but overrated to hell and back
Lot of stake put into his aesthetic
His personal life is often more dramatic than his music
His success is largely due to collaboration with other musicians


It's kanye

Kanye Omari West

Kanye without a doubt

>>73498971
>>73499028

but Kanye made a good album

Kanye, objectively speaking.
>Fashion icon
>Produced a couple cheesy albums at the start of his career
>Created a string of experimental pop albums to mass critical acclaim
>Proceeded to make nothing but totally uninteresting pop that rides off his name

When Kanye dies we'll get another good album out of him.

Possibly Harry Styles, many have said his new album has a Bowie vibe to it.

It doesn't matter how good their discogs are, they are both fundamentally pop artists that hipsters worship because they look and sound slightly different than what plays on the radio. Luckily, we only got 29 more years until Kanye releases his next bearable album, and then some other faggot is going to become the icon of the generation.

Waiting for Kanye's Glass Spider Tour

I kind of agree (except for the last point, fuck off Pablo was very decent), but you forgot to mention the key similarity which is how Kanye keeps changing his style just like Bowie did.
Only thing that kind of breaks the "modern Bowie" is how normies generally disslike Kanye while Bowie was really well liked: an icon of individuality and (sort of) self expressive rebellion.

The idea of a Kanye Blackstar excites, terrifies, and saddens me.

Holy shit, Kanye confirmed for new Bowie

>>73500222
I'd say he's just now entering his 80's phase

Not that a modern Bowie would follow the steps of the classic Bowie

>>73500113
Have you even heard Sign of Times by Harry Styles? It's good.

The Young Thugger of course
