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.

This thread has made go back and listen to a lot of Nas

If Kanye had Nas lyrical mind and flow it would be game over.

Chance is easily the best rapper on this album

Totally!!! Nas >>>>>>>> Kanye

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

kinda explains the stupid Tidal stuff and the ridiculous marketing he's doing. This whole thing is desperate.

"Have you ever had sex with a pharaoh?/ Put the pussy in a sarcophagus/ Now she claiming that I bruised her oesophagus”

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

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.

Oh trust me, the Kanye fam is large

I'm picturing hundreds of 30 year old white dudes ready to defend Ye's honor.
