Wiz, I think you, Deth and I have had this exact conversation many times.

 

[Indy]

so when he says or does something stupid, that's the image she and others that don't follow him get from him

 

[TheTNHMaster]

Even if you just look at his music, nobody has changed music more than him in the last decade or so

 

[Black Wizard]

pretty much, I was in the process of typing out how the only times I've ever really seen him he came off like a complete dick

 

[Trevor~]

Kanye likes to make statements like with I Am A God and such but has trouble explaining the meanings and motives behind what he does.

 

[Ovaldinho]

Kanye is tight with me, a mad man but there's a method to the madness ya'know

 

[Black Wizard]

I wouldn't really know how he changed music, I don't follow anything that isn't metal basically

 

[Trevor~]

like if in the album yeezus he had summed up his idea behind that song it would have worked better i think.

 

[TheTNHMaster]

Best example is 808s and Heartbreak, without that we probably wouldn't see artist like Drake as big as they are

 

[Black Wizard]

and yeah Dylan I think we did

 

[Trevor~]

i think Kanye made Hip Hop more for white people which is funny because white people are the one shitting on him all the time now.

 

[Trevor~]

he moved hip hop away from gangster rap

 

[TheTNHMaster]

Well Kanye really put the last nail in the coffin for gangster rap, if that counts as making Hip Hop more "white" then yeah

 

[DylanTM]

So, am I the only one not into rap or metal?

 

[Ovaldinho]

Yeah Kanye opened up laneeeees in rap and I rate that, more variety in music the better, simple as that
