Kanye "Ye" West

I really liked his last album actually, and hope to get this one...I think gold digger is great Jamie Foxx's vocals are superb.
 
^agreed.

my favorite track is "roses" he mentions amerie's one thing... very awesome.

i personally think he's a stroke of genius diorling,

i know he can be arrogant, but i mean who wouldn't be with all that fame and fortune?
 
Besides, Kanye has worked his *** out..he's been producing for so long..But only after College Dropout people have been loving/hating him.
 
He's opening for U2 this Fall. Kind of curious to see how he is live. Saw him and Jay Z perform at the Awards a couple of weeks back (on the television, of course), and he sounded good.

yeah...Kanye's been around for a lot longer than most people realize or know about and was responsible for Jay-Z classics in the early 00's like "This Can't Be Life" and his work on The Blueprint.

I don't mind arrogance coming from people like Kanye or Jay-Z though, it seems warranted as they have the talent/personality to back it up. I still root for Kanye, it seems he was the underdog not too long ago.

I can never forget at the VMA after show he was polishing his shoes so everyone could see, and when he though the camera wasnt looking he stopped then started again after he realized the camera was still shooting. Hilarious. His shoes were last season Gucci..

It could be worse, Diorling..He could be wearing the DOUBLE-C CHANEL LOGO NECKLACE that resembles the hood ornament from Karls car! :innocent:
 
Saw West open up last night... he was okay live... seems to pull as much energy from the audience as possible. But it was a bit of a turn-off to see him turning on and turning off the jukebox on a table behind him. Meh.
 
Sorry you despise him soo much Diorling :rolleyes: .

I like Kanye. He is a breathe of long needed fresh air. His sense of style is cool. His lyrics are witty and smooth.
 
I don't mind him, really. But I do have to comment that while his lyrics are witty, and some are good, they aren't smooth in my book... live it just seemed like some of his lines lacked flow... but could just be me. :rolleyes:

Agreed.

And is there anyway we can ban the Katrina phrase that he made so popular?:innocent:
 
I like him. The subject matter of his songs, his beats, his sense of style. His lyrics are strong, but they're always one line that makes the whole phrase falter.

There was a review in Now Magazine in Toronto saying that all he does is cater to the black man and the variety of troubles that they encounter. Come to think about it, a person who would write the lyrics for "Diamonds" think differently from someone afflicted with the company of a "Gold Digger." Whatever he says in his songs might just reflect a certain voice of his community and might not actually be his own. I mean, that's what a lot of artists do. So Fabulyss, chances are that he actually cares about women.

He's also a camera wh*re, which ruins his genius side.

He also went to art shcool. If anyone has any pictures of his sketches I will love you forever.

But he's more intelligent than 50 Cent. We should give him that. I also kinda wanna sleep with him too.

Oh, right...everybody else is doing it, let's perpetuate it! :rolleyes: Also, just because someone comments on politics and world affairs...doesn't mean they're intelligent!
 
No. He's reflecting what other people are thinking.

You're making me cry with the rolleyes smiley.

And misogyny and people assuming bad things about certain groups is a reality. What will not talking about it do to help solve the problem?

I really can't stand the way he dresses, it's nothing new. It's new for a rapper, but not new in general. Yes, it looks nice but I dont consider him a fashion savant like many do.

There is a boy at my school that looks JUST like Kanye, he has possibly the worst personality. He thought he mattered cause he looked like Kanye...Poor thing (he smelled like popcorn too)

I hate his new song too. All he does is sample music, didnt PDiddle get in trouble because of that?

Kanye West is a moron. He is just like Diddy back when he was Puff Daddy. I see no talent. All practically mysogynistic, or even when he has a decent message going he has to be tacky.

He doesn't use samples in all of his songs, if you actually listened to any of them, you'd know this

Let me qoute dear Kanye...
"there always be haters, that's the way it is, hater n*****, marry hater bit****, and have hater kids"
You are one of those haters, :)..
I mean really, who the eff cares if his Gucci shoes were LAST SEASON! LIKE OMG, that's such a crime. If he likes it, it shouldn't matter what season it's from.

EXACTLY!! :flower: Karma!!
 
last season, this season who the hell cares.
shouldn t it be all bout his craft since he s an artist?? i saw a rerun of Oprah yesterday and he was on it.
she told him that people say he s arrogant, he said that if he didn t promote himself who will and since he knows he does a good job, there s nothin with saying the truth.
totally agree
