Genius.
Yeah, as much of a dikk as Ye is, that doesn't take away from his music. I'm going to have to agree with the OP.
lames actually posted 50 and em like they matter in 2014 
I agree. I don't think anyone can have a solid argument against Ye being the best ALL AROUND hip hop artist since the mid 00's.
Agreed. He's the most important rap artist of the past decade, for sure. And when you factor in that he more or less reinvents himself for every album 
People can harp about his ghostwriters and ghostproducers all they want. But those people make things special with Kanye. Ye's got vision that's just about unparalleled from any producer (who I can think of, anyway?) that has come out since he has. And every album he makes is an event in one way or another - it always moves the culture. And when you look at most of the rappers to drop since him, many of them have linear musical ancestry to Kanye. Dude even had Jay jacking his steez for inspiration
I've personally liked Kendrick more since 2011, but since 2004, yeah that's Kanye's spot

We're still waiting for people to demonstrate some selections from artists they believe to be on Ye's caliber, production/self-release discography wise...
I don't know how long we're gonna wait... but i think we'll be seeing racing unicorns and teleportation abilities before we do.
Pound for pound. Grand champ.
The man works harder than any other dude in the business... and he has the product to back it up.
It's obvious he's been laying low - you can see an exemplary masterpiece in the works for his upcoming lp.
Quote me on that... he's not giving us Yeezus squared. That you can bet.
If you put your faith in Ye, everything's gonna be...

Yeah.
Kanye is really important to hiphop rather you like it or not 
Kanye has been the greatest rapper of all time since 2004

Well when the direction of hip-hop is heading into a feminine path it's really hard to disagree or refute your statement.
