Then you must sound like that nikka when you talk or rap.
How was it when The College Dropout came out?

I think people also aren't understanding that College Dropout dropped like two months after Beg For Mercy. So people were still on G Unit heavy even though College Dropout ended up bigger than that album and the G Unit solos that came out that year.
Also, Kanye had an impact on Dip Set's run as he was featured on Cam's "Down and Out" and produced "Dip Set Forever". He was credited with "Down and Out" on production, but later clarified that his cousin Brian Miller produced it.
No rapper was bigger than Kanye in 2004 except 50 and maybe Kast.

Just blaze beats were more popular breh.
O3 bonnie?? All they did was sample Makaveli. That song wasn't poppin like that anyway. They just pushed it extra hard.
"She got a light skinned friend look like Michael Jackson
Got a dark skinned friend look like Michael Jackson"
He was kinda lukewarm at first, but once that line dropped he was put over.
At that very moment, throwback jerseys became obsolete and you needed a closet full of polos.

I think Be is overrated but this is facts. Electric Circus turned off A LOT of people

That's because your dad knew you was a wild nikka and tried to steer you the right way
Doesn't matter whether he rapped or not. We're talking about beats and most of the production Kanye did for other artists, he wasn't even featured on. So I don't know what his rapping had to do with anything.
"03 Bonnie & Clyde" was a wack song IMO, but that's neither here or there. Most singles from major artists get a push, fewer of them actually become huge hits. Again, that's beside the point. People actually liked that song. It was the beginning of Jay/Beyonce songs and fueled the rumors of them being a couple. It helped establish Beyonce outside of Destiny's Child.
Even dismissing "Bonnie & Clyde", Kanye had a lot of beats during that time that were popular. Scarface's "Guess Who's Back", Talib's "Get By", Dip Set's "Champions", Lil' Kim's "Came Back For You" all come to mind.

I was in HS and I was in love with the roc a fella chipmunk sound so I was sold off first listen.
Mayonnaise colored Benz was the coldest line of all time. And whenever we heard an original sample for the first time it was always “This is Ye sample!
“
Also it’s gotta be scrubbed off the internet but does anyone remember Kanye’s first TRL interview and he was humble as shyt and talking about how he’ll never been good enough to be on TRL again. I cannot find it anywhere

I started high school around this time.... there was definitely a lot of hype around College Dropout. I just remember that 50 Cent/G-Unit, Dipset, Sean Paul, Beyonce, Jay-Z pretty much ran radio. Luda too. But College Dropout was definitely anticipated.
He was on the wrong side of history.
