Topic: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

I think the answer must be Yes.  I am very sad to say so because Kanye West seemed a fresh new talent in hiphop, he has FLOW!  But he is just a troublemaker and I think he likes the drama of being an iconoclast more than his message being heard, even.  That bit he did robbing the mike and making Mike Meyers look like shit during the Katrina Benefit...Kanye, buy a full-page ad or something, that was NOT about YOU, you know, it was about homeless people in the world's biggest open sewer getting dry clothes and food.  And lately he did some gig and it was obvious the man spends too much time looping his stuff through a computer.  That melodious crooning on the CD is not Kayne West.  He's like Snoop Dogg, he experiments so hard he forgot that he's a champ when he just comes from the heart.

I think Kanye West needs to step down for a year.

Maybe he could fmod here, but then Nolio would have to change his name again.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

wait..what's the charge?

Kanye's one of the best artists out there...

This is the thing I like about him: He doesn't give a [Purple Monkey's butt cheeks] about what anyone thinks of him, he does music because he wants to..not because he wants to please

a lot of people say he fell off in his latest album but he's just talking about what he feels he needs to express and it's a great album if you listen to all the songs and put them together...

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

just shoot him along with any other rap artist, just line em up and let the bullets fly!

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

Mike Meyers > Kanye x 10...000

What are you smoking, Gladiator? Kanye's one of the best artists out there because he doesn't care what anyone thinks of him? That's all he cares about--what YOU think of him so you'll buy his junk. He's convinced YOU he doesn't care what anyone thinks. So YOU buy his record. He doesn't care that everyone but you (his target audience) knows that all he cares about his selling his ignorant ass rhymes. I'm young enough to know what he's got out there and it's [   ]in' awful. I enjoy rap. I enjoy hip hop. I enjoy R&B. I do not enjoy Kanye. Ignorant lyrics just encourage ignorance in the populace. And that, my friends, is evil.

Spot on Fanc. Conscious hip hop is the way to go. Check out Critical Condition by People Under the Stairs, it's a new really good song about this same thing.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

I'd be terrified to try any hip hop suggested by IC players.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

Fanc, it seems to me that you have a habit of accepting ignorance out of caution.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

Kayne West is a pompous tit. His music isn't all that great, it's average at best, it's all been done before (Timbaland for example). His ego on the other hand is terrible enough to not invite him to any decent music festival tongue. I give him 2 years!

The guitar just tickles your ears towards the end, and the begginging's got a nice groove, also kinda like his clothing and the long hair, the bowl hat hehe.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

I know... but for him it's new... and it's not quite bad.

This forum is stupid.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

As long as he doesn't pee on people he's ok with me

Not many people know this, but I own the first radio in Springfield. Not much on the air then, just Edison reciting the alphabet over and over. "A" he'd say; then "B." "C" would usually follow...

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

I don't care if I'm not okay by you >=|

This forum is stupid.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

I think Kanye West was a joke when he was born. My dog has got more musical ability than him. Yeah his ego is too big. He should be role model. I don't personally like his "music" but others listen to it so he should be decent about it.

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

lol Muppet, his music isn't that bad as you say it is, it's just not really as special people claim it is tongue

Re: Has Kanye West Gone Too Far?

Perhaps that is a more holistic view, but there is so little talent and content in my belief, that I think it's an insult to many musicians.
