[MufasaChoppa]

I stopped listening once u said this.....Right off the bat I can tell u never been to a Kanye concert.

fr fr, Yeezus-era Kanye reminds me of prince a lot

Opinions are Opinions but Andre 3000 made his name in a group not from being solo.

If anything Andre 3000 is the Babyface of Hip Hop

I'm not talking about showmanship. I am talking anout overall aura.

What about this is reminiscent of Prince? This is a reach just like Kanye being the Prince of Hip Hop.

This is far more closer than to Prince than Kanye wearing over the top masks:

And Andre has been dressing like this since the 90's.

Andre 3000's credits on The Love Below:

soloist, vocals, background vocals, acoustic and electric guitar, piano, keyboards, tenor sax, programming, producer





^^^ and we're comparing Kanye's, Wayne's, Lil' B's, and Young Thug's to Prince

He'd still be the closest one even without a solo. A lot of the artists being mentioned don't even have an album worth being brought up.

wearing ass-less chaps don't make you closest to Prince, you need the catalogue, 3000 has none


Kanye would be the closet

DJ Quik

Naw... Quik can play multiple instruments, composes music, sometimes wears a perm, and was on the androgynous kick for a while (Rhythm a lism), but he's nowhere near prince. Prince was a trendsetter, and was really left field insofar as his music and especially his image. Quik never quite pushed the envelope as far as he could have/should have. When Quik went back to his whole street look on Balance and Options, he kind of faded back into the background.

dr dre is michael jackson of hip hop..

quik is prince..

remember mike n prince had beef...

mike even set prince up to fail in from of their idol james brown...mike showed his ass dancing n shi....then call prince out knowing damn well prince cant do none of that... prince came thru the crowd on his body guard like a pharoah..got on stage n let a baby simba roar out..damn near fell off the stage afterwards

mike wanted prince to be on bad the single...prince saw the lyrics was your but is mine...

snoop and xzibit to quik n dre is like charlie and eddie to prince n mike...they know everything about the 2 n the beefs...n the lowkey shyt they have said n done..

remember mike n will.i.am went to a prince show in vegas...prince spotted mike...had his guitar with em and

will said mike was upset and said prince a bully...

now out of all the muhfukkas listed in this thread..

quik the only muhfukka in here..that will spot dr dre..n stand over him..or in the area like he did eiht at the source awards..

hell might get off the stage..and shyt on dre in front of the entire audience..

both quik n prince fukked themselves comerically with profile n warner bro issues...

also...prince n mike were lowkey jealous of one another..but were fans...prince showed his respect...when mike died..

but nobody knows the real reason prince n rick james had plex..rick james died i dont recall prince even speakin on rick..

rick n prince were the eiht n quik of their timebeef wise...nobody know why eiht flipped on quik..when his best friend was a blood n part of cmw...and the song eiht claim quik dissed em on wasnt even a diss...so nobody knows the real reason death wish was made..

jus like nobody knows why rick was pourin henny on quik or slappin em up on tour...

I would say Andre 3 stacks and Thugger is definately molding himself to try and be that. Thugger took this gender bending shyt to another level moreso than Andre for Hip Hop's taste.
