Clothing:
Fabrixquare - the lowest rung
Acne - higher level yet, still lacking in certain traits

All involve making clothes, but one obviously commands more attention

You can do this with music, painting, etc
Any art, you will be able to see that there are artists who have a passion for it and who seek the heights it has to offer
Artists are about creation and creation is god

When he says he wants to make " dope" things he is saying he wants his art to command attention and to reach levels that he and his fans can feel in see towards

There's two large groups of people.

The ones who don't listen to his songs and just read about him. What they're fed is shit like the Taylor Swift incident, the names of his album, all the outbursts and crazy shit the paps and media love to relay. They fall for that image like lemmings and oust themselves as the hypocrites they are. Note how celebs are always being criticized yet incessantly followed? Every article about them always has comments deploring them, talking shit about their actions, yet those comments follow their articles everywhere. People use celebrities as an outlet for their own holier-than-thou attitude, this includes the retards who hop across Justin Bieber telling everybody how much they hate Bieber. It makes them feel big to talk shit about someone famous, so suppose themselves as superior persons to someone who is rich and famous.

Then look at how fucking ironic it is for Kanye to pull that god complex and have people criticize that. He's embodying the worst of their hypocrisy, and they criticize him. It's so fucking obvious that only the retards, aka you, would fall for such shit. The second group is the ones who actually listen to his songs and realize this very message in them.

>> No.7046092

>>7046074

As soon as you call yourself a genius, you betray a total lack of understanding of that word.

I don't think he is stupid, and I do think there is some profundity behind what he says but his vocabulary is so bad it is hard to take him seriously.

He's still very gifted and intent on always reaching new aesthetic heights which keeps his music fresh (not necessarily good) and different.

You have to respect him if you think about it objectively for what he's done in his life through his own entrepreneurship but I also feel sorry for him. You can tell he's not really right in the head with how he's shaking and how desperate he sounds. Desperate might not even be the right word. More like emphatic but also insecure.

False dichotomy is when you assert a disjunction that you erroneously think is exhaustive. Like when you say, "there are two kinds of people out there"

There are people that like Kanye's music but don't like or don't buy into his public persona.

There are people that respect what he is doing publicly that don't like rap.

There are a whole lot of people in between those two polar opinions you listed.

>strawman

The first group you described are so obviously brainless and incapable of critical thinking that there is no point even discussing them. This is by no means a majority view and their opinions are so easy to dismiss the fact that you had to build up something so easy to knockdown shows that you're not comfortable dealing with a more challenging criticism.


>pop psychology

"He's embodying the worst of their hypocrisy, and they criticize him"

This kind of entry-level wikipedia psychoanalysis is so trivial that it is completely uninteresting. It also gets the matter backwards. Not anyone can just put on a "god complex" and then have people this pissed off let alone get as much attention. He gets attention primarily because he is very innovative and musically gifted, which puts extreme pressure and scrutiny on him, which then leads him to act out in these ways and causes people to criticize him. His "god complex" does not exist in a vacuum.

Mos Def did "New Slaves" in '99 with "Mr. Nigga"

Celebrities have been claiming they are bigger than jesus since the Beatles.

What is actually interesting is his influence on the rap genre through the unprecedented level of production and attention to detail he puts into his albums. He is always striving to reach a new aesthetic level, both in his image and his music, and should be appreciated on that level.

Pop music is just entertainment. I'm really glad in excists but I still kind of sucks that Nicki Minaj or Kim Kardashian has hundred million die hard fans who would lick the dog crap from her soles, but no one knows who say Norman Borlaug is.

>he's just kind of pontificating to the audience
i can understand this in a lot of ways, and it's one of the reasons why i really like Kanye outside of his music.
he may come off as arrogant, but look at what he's doing. he isn't doing a canned interview, with no substance like 90% of talk show guests. he isn't simply out to plug a product (even if that's what got him air time), he is out to make a difference.
he goes on TV and speaks his mind, even if his mind is full of shit (which i actually don't think it is). even though he is completely concerned with his image, he wants people to know who he really is.

you can hear it in his lyrics, because even when they aren't great, they are how he really feels. they are what's bothering him, and what's on his mind.

i know Kanye isn't a great writer, but his lyrics do communicate a lot of emotion. you don't need to break them apart to understand them.
i actually like that it feels like he hasn't put much thought in them sometimes. it seems more raw and honest.

I agree, in an interview with Travis Scott (GOOD Music signee) he mentioned that working on Yeezus, Kanye said fuck lyrics its more about the energy now. You could already see that progression with his use of a vocorder in the end of Runaway that was used to make him sound like a crying guitar. MC Ride isn't particularly lyrical either which is why combined with the dark sound people think Black skinhead is a ripoff

Nas is one of the GOAT

Lupe is very good lyrically and overall, but isn't pop so he'll probably never get huge.

Eminem is God-tier when he is angry, but now he's too happy and it made him soft.

Macklemore is a better lyricist even though I don't really care for him.

Pusha T and Malice (Clipse) are both better lyrically

Kendrick Lamar is better lyrically as well

I like Kanye, I love his music whether it is such lyrical or not...but he needs to take it easy. I mean, not everything you talk about has to be "so deep" and "wow insightful." Sometimes you gotta just lower your intellect and act stupid, it can be fun. I think since he labeled himself a genius, he thinks that he needs to keep that persona, and always look smarter and better when he is in front of the camera. And yeah, he is being watched by everyone so he wants to appear as a genius, but really some of the best interviews are when people let go and be hilarious and stupid, but allowing their persona and their jokes reflect their intelligence without having to prove it.

eminem can write a few good tracks but then you realize the other three quarters of songs off any given album are him whining about being white and trying to be edgy

macklemore is a huge shitlord making millions off of singing about anticonsumerism

clipse is great, but lyrical? its coke rap and pharell beats, come the fuck on. my name is my name was disappointing
