As I read the above letter to kanye "Selfish" by Slum Villiage came in SIRIUS sattelite radio television thingy, A track produced by Kanye with no..NO sped up vocals, just straight up production where Kanye spits on the second verse and KILLS the track, the best verse I've heard in a long time might I add. That song alone discredits everything in the above letter to Kanye. Props to Kanye for being in demand and slaying the rap game in front of and behind the mic, keep doin ya thing.
Last Call is prolly my fav from the album
Dear Kanye West I hate to say this , but I hate you.
P.S. I'm not being a hater
What I can't understand, is how it's possible to dislike Jay-Z and still be a Kanye fan.. As a rapper, Kanye is Jay-Z light, but with production skills as well..Not to mention, Jay-Z albums often have some of the same vibe as CG..
Aside from the skits, I only skipped that track with Luda, the rest got major play.
A "light" Jay-Z? Are you serious. They're completely different. What makes Kanye stand out is that he's relateable. While he does have some typical Hip Hop content from time to time, he usually spits shit people can be like "Oh yea, I did that..." Most rappers talk about pushing crack, pushing Bentleys(which Kanye does, too), Pimping and various other things I don't do. Kanye may not be complex, but he's a VERY good emcee. You don't gotta be Chino XL to be considered a dope emcee. Kanye comes with dope lines, great hooks, good concepts and just an overall genuine vibe. He(along with 9th Wonder) is bringing back that Golden Era feel, without over doing it. Hands down, College Dropout is the best album of the year, I don't see how it's not. Aside from the skits, I only skipped that track with Luda, the rest got major play.
Oh ok, so any rapper who comes with good hooks and dope lines is Jay-Z light? LMAO.Listen to their content. Kanye talks about his being self concious, his family, his accident, getting girls, Jesus, school, working 9 to 5, social issues, etc. Jay-Z is more on some random player shit. He talks about hustling in the street, sometimes he'll get introspective, for the most part it's just generic studio thug music.
