Kanye done lost his motherfucking mind?!

[Unkle Fleak]

i wonder if kanye could figure out how to resize an image to use as a signature on slap without it taking up the whole page.

It’s impossible

PS

Kanye lost his mind well before March 31, 2025 when this thread began.

I know but the goober is like that orange turd, always throwing a fit and whining no one gives a shit about him because of whatever contrived reasons. Keep Hocking your garbage somewhere else, anyone who's got a garbage personality should do us all a favor maybe not exist anymore.

Let's put it this way before he lost his marbles he could have had anything and probably could still, from his Nazi rhetoric or klan garbage to some dumbass would say oh he's trolling or whatever lame excuse to say he's an artist. Frankly this kook can go fuck himself back to whatever hole he's came out of. I wouldn't give a shit no thoughts about it.

[fruits, nuts, + seeds:)]

you made the thread so im not convinced

His last good rant was the "How Sway?".  Everything has been mid since.

lol, yea you can tell that was when he was over his love for backpack hip hop. I love it when Sway told him he wasn't the one to turn up on

Kanye has always sucked.

this!

He hasn’t always sucked as an artist, the first three albums are undeniable imo. But those albums are all fuelled by the same massive inferiority complex - yeah dude we get it, dropping out of college was really a cool move (not something you feel upset or ashamed about at all). Sadly, after adding fame and a Kardashian or two into the mix that complex took over.

It’s very hard for modern hip hopers to impress me. Everyone else is just copying each other’s ideas hoping Kanye is gay and unhappy. It’s just the way it is
Anyone who says differently doesn’t have eyes and ears
Yep Kanye wishes he could be as free and awesome as Tyler but he’s trapt

[close]

Kayne was at one point as free and awesome as tyler.  I sort of don't like Tylers new stuff either...the odd future stuff was lighting in a bottle dope.  Earl the sweatshirt IMO was probably the best MC to come out that group and his new album with alchemist is pretty good

Im old but I like some of these new kid producer/ rappers.  Duke Deuce is from the south but has that early Dr Dre vibe but for new kids

[close]

I feel both their best works are outside hip hop. I think I relate to Tyler more because he speaks some of the language I grew up in

But hip-hop as a whole, I feel like it’s frozen in the mainstream. And both these people are too old to be groundbreaking in street culture

Not sure if you're aware but that's been one of Kendrick Lamar's main points over the past year. It seems to be the chief reason he went after Drake so hard.

lol don't get me started on Drake, I knew some musicians ~2008/9 and back then the word about Drake was he had ghost writers. Could never get myself to listen to anything he made up to this day, had a girlfriend who liked his shit and i couldn't stand his music (she loved Odd Future tho). When his first beef with meek mill popped off I was shocked at how many people didn't know he doesn't write his own music.   The same commercial audience that let kayne run allowed Drake to fly

Why do people who are so loved desire to be hated?

I guess you're someone like Kanye who has a huge circle of dickriders who probably don't offer much in the way of genuine, earnest interaction, then maybe the hate he receives is perceived by him as more authentic than who he's surrounded by

Disclaimer: no defense of Kanye, I am one of his haters, but to be fair, it must be a lonely life being rich and famous and it looks to have completely consumed him

I think part of his fame is part of the reason why Kanye’s mom got the plastic surgery that ended up killing her …she said she would go to these events and all of the older women had work done and she felt she needed to do the same if she was running around with ye…it was in that genius doc.   I also hate how he acts out but feel really bad about the circumstances around his moms death, it was really because of his fame and greed

It's the human condition man. We always want we don't / can't have, and sometimes this means we destroy everything to get it. Like that bit in The Simpsons where Maggie has a ball.

BTW Kanye used to be cool, but what. the. fuck. His music has done a complete 180 and is beyond ass now. Y'know he uses an AI version of his voice in a lot of tracks? He recorded some of 'Ye' on his iPhone, self admittedly. From 'five beats a day for three summers' to AI trash. Money printing right wing bullshit again. We should've seen the writing on the wall when he started wearing a MAGA hat. I knew he was just using it, like you guys say, but it really does show a lack of integrity which he used to possess.

I could talk about this for hours but I'll stop there haha.

Do we care if he recorded on his iPhone? 

I know people were weirdly upset when Madlib said he programmed Bandana on an iPad but I never understood why.

Honestly, it's not as much of a biting indictment as the AI shit, but I think it's indicative of a change of character. Kanye used to be the kind of guy to fall asleep at the studio, but somewhere along the way he stopped caring, and it really, really shows.

Bandana is one of my favourite albums, but I've gotta say Freddie carries some of those stock beats. 'Situations' from that album I think really exemplifies this point. That beat is straight ass but Gibbs totally kills it.

hip hop purists can be as bad as core skateboarders...I went to an event in SF and Madlib was headlining as a DJ, people hated it and boo'd him...

I used to hang out with Mr. Dibia$e

 and on the ride home that night madlib was boo'd we were saying how much we liked it and people were trippin

AI doesnt surprise me given his Warhol approach to producing anyway.  I read a story, not sure how true it is, around the time of MBDTF/WTT era when he was recording out in Hawaii that the pizza guy came through with a delivery and while he was there, Kanye was asking him for feedback/input on whatever track they were working on.  Not sure how true it is but if you look at the liner notes for his tracks from this time there are 10+ people on a given track.

Bandana was good but Piñata is my absolute favorite album of the last 10 years.  I dont think Madlib has any bad beats but I do think he ruins tracks when he puts long ass skits/samples at the beginning/end of a track.  Gibbs flow on Situations makes that song what it is youre right
