Kanye's "Yeezus" leaks

[NewChief]

I know we have some HUGE 'Ye fans here on CP (I'm looking at you, bald bearded white dudes), so I thought I'd post the link to the leaked stream:

So far, I think neither his fans nor his detractors will be disappointed.

Oh good lord, no. Rap is freaking amazing right now.

**** no it isn't. When you have guys like Kanye, 2 Chainz, Lil Wayne, Drake and guys like that as the main thing it just isn't. There are some great ones out there right now, but they have been at it for 10-15 years.

The ASAP crew is promising as hell.
Black Hippie is badass.
OddFuture is great.
Danny Brown is awesome.

Those are relatively mainstream acts as well. If you get into underground stuff it gets even more interesting. Hiphop has become respected and respectable. The artists engaging in it are like 3rd generation, and they're smart as hell with their production. They're pushing the envelope. I'm old school. Met the Geto Boys. Saw MC Breed in concert. Saw ****ing Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer. Loved all that shit. Got into the whole Tribe/Native Tongues movement as well. Was listening to Life is Too Short in 8th grade.

I think rap is as good as it's ever been right now.

I'm going to respectfully disagree. I think it is significantly weaker mainly because of the guys I listed. There are some very talented MC's and some very talented producers, but those guys have been around for over 10 years. Just my humble opinion.

Did you listen to Kendrick Lamar's album last year? Have you listened to Chance the Rapper? Amazing 20 year old phenom that sort of encapsulates, to me, where rap is heading. Smart ass prep school type kids who have a huge musical vocabulary (he wears ****ing Grateful Dead shirts and tie dye and such) on which to draw. Here, listen to it free:

I did listen to Kendrick Lamar, it was ok, it didn't do much for me. I'll check this other one out.

But I should agree:

2Chainz and WakaFlaka and all of that stuff is ridiculous. I think it's funny and entertaining, but it's not "art."

You could make the same argument for literally any genre.

All you gotta do is switch the Lil Wayne, 2Chainz, etc for shitty big name artists in whatever genre you want to talk about.

J Cole's album is pretty boring. Good concepts, but boring. His first album was better.

[AphexPhin]

just streamed it. Terrible. Easily his worst album. He is normally great but fame has gone to his head.

Ahh no. 2Chainz doesn't/can't rap.

Neither does Kanye.

Uhh, two of these are not like the other two. Drake has one of the tightest flows of any rapper out there, mainstream or otherwise, and Kanye' s career could be considered a mega-success off his first 3 albums alone.

Anyway, thanks for the link. I fear my favorite Kanye days are over and he's slowly been slipping into insanity ( or something, idk ) since his mom died. If I could get another Graduation, I'd be good to go.
