Dr. Dre shifted or helped shift the sound scape of Hip Hop a couple of times. He's even the producer that pretty much gave Kanye life as a Hip Hop producer. Where would Ye be if he hadn't sampled the drums from "Xxplosive" on "This Can't Be Life"?
Beats By Dre are far more influential than anything that Kanye has done in the fashion world. Many buy Beats as a fashion statement more so than using them as headphones. There's even athletes endorsing them. From laptops (HP) to cell phones to the Chrysler, they all have Beats.
Dr. Dre is far more influential as a producer than Kanye West.
Who cares if Dre is older and who is checking for him? The point is that he's spearheaded more timeless music.
You are citing "Kush" and "I Need A Doctor" when "I Need A Doctor" is bigger than any song Kanye has released since. The duet with Paul McCartney isn't even bigger.
This dude came through wearing polos and tight fit clothing in the baggy jeans era...Nobody dresses in oversized sh!t anymore
That and the sneakers put him neck and neck with Dre
This class of new school rappers ....Drake, Cole, Wale, Sean, Gambino are sons of Ye
I care just like any hiphop head should care.... He's been holding Detox over the past decade because he's scared to flop
Dre is done....Kanye is still active and out there taking risks with music and fashion
That doesn't mean Dre sucks or is better than Kanye ....They are neck and neck
Kanye is younger and has the chance to overtake him in this next decade though
Did you forget that "N!ggas in Paris" was released in 2011 too ? Dre had Em and Skylar Grey on that and it still sold 1 mill less
Almost forgot.........name any rapper to duet with a freaking Beatle
