Kanye West's music...

[JulesMaximus]

Or is it just me? I kind of like the song 'Stronger' off his latest album.

That's ok. He has great production, ok skill, and doesn't rap about guns, gangs, or other stupidness. Kanye is closer to more "conscious" MC's like Common and Mos Def. Now, middle age white dudes listening to GANGSTER rap are just pathetic.

Do you mean stuff like 50 Cent or old school Ice Cube?

Being able to understand what he says helps.

His newest album is actually pretty good. There's alot of crap out there right now...and there has been for a few years now. My favorite track off his new album is probably Homecoming.

I was listening to his album today and just thought to myself...the lyrics and beats are pretty good...but his flow is average is at best. Now having said all that...I still think Kanye is an idiot.

I was really disappointed by his newest album. I thought his first two were much more solid in terms of beats and lyrics. IMO the best reason to buy this album is so that 50 will stop releasing solo albums.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here, but I think you might be a Daft Punk fan too!

You know hip hop is dying when you hear a track called "My girl gotta girlfriend" on the radio.

The hook in Stronger is a sample from a Daft Punk song.
