I must be the only person alive who doesnt like kanye west.

Kane fo sho, he comes off as a lil cocky muthafucka, but can't deny the dudes skill...

[bicsintegra]

i am not saying kanye is a lyrical genius he isn't but the album was a breath of fresh air in a stale music industry. who writes songs about jesus without sounding corny? remember this is just my opinion but dead prez R.B.G. is an incredible album just no airplay or radio time or videos. i only got it becasue it was at bmg.

I Will def agree with you on that the only thing holding cam down is 1. making up words (hot at times)...."roota toota etc.." and 2. Jim Jones the worst motherfucker to touch a mic since Cruncy Blac.

^kiddin' right?

I sure hope so. T.I. is the only one you listed that I think is worth a shit. I, also, think that Kanye West is a shithole. Later, QD.

t.i. are you serious dude?? LOL that fucker is gonna be right back in Hartsfield 5 years from now. Are we talkin about substance, stayin power?? or are we talkin about the skinniest muthafucka with the biggest mouth? :goodjob: :D

Call him what you will, 2004 was the year of Kane. brought a lot of shit to the game that was lacking. I cant say I like all his shit but you know one song or another you were bumpin ;)

LoL... Yea man I use to hate Cam and Dipset.. But now I find myself bumpin their shit all the damn time.. The thing about Killa is, he definetly isnt a lyrical genius but he is most def. CLEVER WITH HIS WORDS... Diplomats just have a sound of thier own.... If you just listen to their beats you can pretty much tell that its a Diplomats joint..

[NzProjeKt]

Kanye = Good Production & Nothing Else...

Yeahh... well country music is a bit different from what Killa and his squad put out you know ?

I must be the only person alive who doesnt like kanye west.

No,...you're not.

[thinkfast®]

well you know, with all this talk about these guys I havent asked, is this like a grammy list, or a category for some type of award, or just to start shit?? LOL

[green91]

Yeahh... well country music is a bit different from what Killa and his squad put out you know ?

I listen to country, rock, rap, everything. ive listened to rap for years and years.. just because i listen to country also doesnt mean i dont know good rap. i think locking yourself into one music genre is fairly ignorant because you miss out on alot of good music

[quickdodge®]

I know I haven't locked myself into one music genre. I listen to everything but country. I just don't like it. I won't hate on it, but I just don't want to listen to it. Later, QD.

kanye had a good album no he isn't the best lyricist i never said that 'Illmatic' was one of the geatest hip hop albums of all time but it didn't sell 1/3 of doggystyle sales. the albums i listed are albums that i can listen to without having to skip 10 out of the 14-15 tracks on the album. T.I.'s album was good production and lyricly, just my opinion. a lot of people won't like dead prez or de la because they are not MTV rappers and they had no marketing for their albums. but if you ever loved a P.E. album or a mos def, roots, or common album then chances are dead prez will suit you. kiss is one of the best lyricist in the game hands down, but 2004 was a weak year but then again every year since 97 has been pretty much a downslide.

[Sledlude]

de la soul's the grind date is rediculously good... dont forget about mos def's the new danger. and beautiful struggle... all really good albums

[bicsintegra]

i forgot about the beautiful struggle i listened to it so much i forgot it came out in 2004 i have to listen to that again. the last track is amazing.
