jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy | All Parts Released

[jfkennedy]

What surprised me most is how blatant they were using him for beats

everyone was like “what’s up Kanye got any beats for me” or “don’t forget to send that beat”

not

“hey Kanye how’s it going....How’s the family?”

and he probably on got a chance to rap and get signed because they didn’t want anyone else getting his beats

but Kanye realized all this and played the game until people realized he really could rap and there was a lane for conscience/back pack rap

like that guy said Kanye was the bridge between the two eras streetgangster and backpack to swagger high fashion rap

He’s the gap like Banana Republic and Old Navy

I find it ironic that Kanye spent so much energy trying to get put on writing rhymes, but nowadays has ghost writers.

Ye been had ghost writers from the back pack rap and his first 3 albums

How big was college dropout in Chicago when it dropped


I know it did 700k first week in the United States

It was a huge album nationwide. No one that was around can pretend otherwise. Game changing album

 

[TheDarceKnight]

The documentary is great at showing his struggle but we also have to remember that Kanye was getting PAID for his beats. People talking about “nobody cared. They only wanted his beats”, well that was the POINT. Nobody was “using” Kanye like he was some naive kid; he was getting paid and had platinum plaques to his name. He had to work hard at convincing people at he ultimately succeeded.


But you CANNOT expect people to care about your dreams simply because their YOUR dreams. It takes hard work and dedication, of which Kanye had in spades.

Facts. He was also getting paid like 30-40k per beat on some of his beats in this era. He was getting paid very well, and was well respected.

Without Kim he probably doeent become this big but he would have. Kanye is destined for greatness.I think dude is as normal in a crazy world then we think. Hes just super confident,his own biggest fan which he should be.

 

[B. Pumpaveli]

I really hope we see the MBDTF recording sessions..

They're not in the documentary:

It only mentions the album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy once, barely. The docuseries' main cameraman was not there for that definitive album’s creation, so it’s just not a priority to what “Jeen-Yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy” is actually about.
