Kanye (through mostly his own devices) feels like he has been erased from the discussions

[Hov]

Because I could've sworn in the 2000s & even 2010s, a Ye release was a bigger cultural moment than Kendrick or Drake

And through mostly his own antics, and a TikTok generation, it's like the story is he barely existed while Drake was just on top of the planet while Kendrick was there in the shadows waiting for his moment

And yes Drake was nuclear and Dot won awards and had dope ass albums and movements (hes my favorite) but...

I just feel like Ye was the biggest most influential artist by far, especially for him to be so dismissed or not talked about. Like, Taylor Swifts incident was big because it was Ye, not because it was Taylor lol

Did he get RayJ/Kim'd by the culture/world (pun slightly intended)

KoonYe said “Slavery was a choice”

No other people would still do all this effort to bypass and redeem someone that betrayed their ppl like this.

The Ancestors survived slavery for us to even be here.

That KOON just made music and sold some COTDAMN sneakers. Get tf up.

The racial low self esteem we have is DISGUSTING to watch.

 

[beejus]

He did it to himself.

It's a mix of a lot of different things. Obviously the Alex Jones/alt right swing from 2017~ was a bad look. Saying you love Hitler and he should be forgiven because you're Christian is obviously going to get taken out of context. Especially when you been questioning the jewish connections.

Borderline stalking your ex.

Having your new girl give you bjs in public is a bad look.

You got fat.

Your last 3 albums have been extremely disappointing.

What do you expect really.

I remember the hype on The Coli leading up the release of Yeezus in 2013 No solo album he released after Yeezus buzz wise came close to that 2013 album.


Blood on the leaves and Bound still today is




Kanye has or had a HUGE CAC/Asian fanbase so him being a c00n isn't why he's overlooked. Lil Wayne is just as big of a c00n and is still loved by Black ppl.

 

[No Hook]

Once upon a time I had Kanye in my top 20. When I found out he had writers, I had to take him off

I think that plus his antics were a real detriment for him especially for pure hip hop heads

Oh and now you have multiple sexual assault allegations.

Yeah it's not looking great.

That right there did him in….. had he never said that bullshyt black folks would have still given him grace.. shyt they still do it for Lauren Hill and she ain’t put out an album since 1998

If Kanye kept putting out dope music on the level or even close to the level he was with his first few albums I'd be able to put aside his antics a little more. But being an idiot AND putting out very subpar music on top of it? I'm out

I never cared too much that he had writers because I thought of him as a producer first. But definitely the alt right antics turned me off. Not to mention most of his music after tlop (with a few exceptions) has been slowly getting worse and worse.

And i just think he’s not worth defending.

I actually like Donda and JIK for what its worth, obviously it's all been a step down since TLOP but Donda II which never even got a real release, and the two Ty$ collab albums have been really bad. He even just used AI to put his voice over Ty's vocals on the last one.

 

[Jx2]

We don’t care anymore. People move on real quick when you’re an emboldened piece of shyt all the time.

 

[Pseudo]

More worryingly is Jay. I know the Volume albums haven't aged well production wise but the kids absolutely hate him for some reason

 

[Finesse]

The music started sucking. Ppl were still rocking with him till after TLOP. He was doing all the crazy shyt then too.


Pablo was the last hurrah, after that, thats when he really went off the deep end with the Jesus is King ish

 

[Sir Richard Spirit]

Kanye is one of the biggest artists on the planet still. He’s just doesn’t have a machine behind him at the moment.
