Re: Kanye West
I'm kind of obsessed with "bonus tracks" section after "Wolves". Really interesting transition/contrast.

I wish I still had my leak from two weeks ago. I'll have to replace it on iTunes next week.

Re: Kanye West
It's not really that simple. Obviously Kanyes skills as a producer are off the charts but Nas destroys him lyrically. Kanye makes me laugh once in a while but that's pretty much it when it comes to his skills lyrically.

Re: Kanye West
I actually try not to think too much about the chasm that exists between what a song like Runaway is musically compared to what it is lyrically. It makes me too angry.

Re: Kanye West
Are we glossing over the fact that Kanye said he's $53 million dollars in debt?

It's like the Cosby stuff. It doesn't surprise you and you just shrug and move on.

Re: Kanye West
Lol Nas's lyrics are basic shit compared to Kanye's. Don't get me wrong, I love Nas, but these are different levels of ability.

Re: Kanye West
Don't be biased LV. You know you and maybe a few other weirdly obsessed Kanye fans are the only ones who feel that way.

Like I told trag, pulling out-of-context lines is misleading. And doesn't prove anything.

Re: Kanye West
Yeah, you can do the same thing with Nas. But for real: you are the only person on earth who thinks Kanye West is on the same level as Nas lyrically.
