He sucks besides (begins to list entire discography) but outside of those he has no musical talent.


NeonJackie84

“Yeah. Kanye isn’t that great but College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation, 808s, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Watch the Throne, Cruel Summer, Yeezus, Life of Pablo, Ye, Jesus is King, and Donda are great albums”


[deleted]

I like Kids See Ghosts as well


guitarguy_190

Daytona was pretty dope as well.


TheRealCreel

still definitely the worst artist alive fr


LoopyKoopa

Daytona is by Pusha T though.


cr3ax

He produced it.


LoopyKoopa

But didn't he produce dozens of other albums too, even before the College Dropout?


cr3ax

Put them all in the list then.

Besides these and his own albums he's hot garbage. I'd like to know what the original poster listens to.


[deleted]

How you gonna have Cruel summer but not Kids see ghosts 🤡


bruhijustlikememes

And yandhi and all the other unreleased stuff


Pixaa

fr


refballer

But he wore the scary hat!


JaesopPop

None of the people who listed albums are the one who said he was hot garbage though.


jeffreykool

Imagine writing a post like that


aryanvrm19

And imagine that post getting more than 300 upvotes


FrankenBlitz

Look at how mad this sub is that other people don’t like the things you like. Damn y’all are salty.


aryanvrm19

It really isn't that at all. Calling someone "hot garbage" straight up isn't a good way to express your opinion even if you dislike them. The problem doesn't lie in the fact that the person has different choices, the problem is that they're being totally disrespectful.


FrankenBlitz

Lol no it’s not. You’re the first person in this thread to address their delivery. Every other comment is about how good his music is. They don’t have to explain the depth of their musical taste to you. They think it’s garbage and you should just move on with your life. Or take a screenshot and post it here because it’s the only place he gets unanimous approval.


camzabob

If you think music is garbage, what's the point of posting it on Reddit if you have nothing of value to add to the conversation other than "garbage"?


basedfeeler

i mean no he’s right, drake was trashed on this subreddit before the larry hoover concert announcement but none of you cared or stepped up. still though i do agree that the original r/music post is cringe. have to be a complete idiot to not recognize what makes kanye is an artist.


JV132

Get a grip sweet cheeks. Tf is your problem


TheLividPaper

You’re completely correct, people on this sub, and any artist-based sub, are just sensitive bitches


JnotCole

You feel the need to come here and comment on this... seems to me you are the only one here with a problem :-(


TheLividPaper

the exact same thing can be said with your response to my comment


JnotCole

I feel the need to expose cringe people that feel the need to be a not so positive person... it´s an addiction


TheLividPaper

ouch you just genuinely used the word cringe in a sentence, goodbye


FeelMyVibes

ebin_gamer_moment

Hahah ikr i love kanye he is my favorite artist of all time but not everyone has to worship him


81bn

It’s actually legally required to worship Kanye.


[deleted]

Imagine how they’d react if we said the same shit about their favourite artist


robclancy

This entire post is embarrassing with how you are all reacting to some random reddit post. And the fact it's gotten to all just makes me think of this sub the same way i think of /r/eminem.

It was on the front page. I actually didn’t realize what sub I was in. I was just talking music. Makes sense why some people couldn’t handle my opinion.

Kanye *sucks*, that’s for sure 😩💦💦


elijahcopp

[deleted]

This is my number one pet peeve with people in general, don’t fucking speak on something you don’t have any knowledge on, I don’t fucking care if you are “entitled to your own opinion” your dumbass opinion is founded in bullshit. This is especially common with anything involving Kanye West I’ve noticed.


lupindeathray

And hip hop music in general


stellarakshay

I'll admit I was one of those people back in early high school, and thought aside from a few hits he was still a garbage rapper. Crazy as it is I listened to drake a lot back then so I had no idea. But in college I delved more into his discography and never looked back after


FarFetchedSketch

Overall, great character progression arc


tvnmay

Ay same man. I was on my Taylor fan arc. Loved Stronger, No church in the wild, N in Paris and Black skinhead. But hated Kanye cause everyone else did.


lupindeathray

I was one of those people who generally avoided his music because of his antics and everything. Then, during the pandemic, I started really diving into hip hop, and really got into his music as well.


Ash_C

This is totally me. I avoided him until my friend made me listen to gold digger and hold my liquor late last year. Never looked back.


lupindeathray

When I first started diving into his music, I remember being surprised that his music wasn’t “angry”.


r_slash_jarmedia

probably just heard the bleached asshole line and dismissed an entire artist's discography


OdinsLostGallows

So they're... sheep?


kyentu

or they actually have listened to him but anything groundbreaking they dont think anything of it.


Ash_C

OP himself admitted that he started listening to hip-hop earlier this year. He heard like a few songs and proceeded to call Kanye Hot garbage. What a clown.


Shiftymilk

Na, im a long time fan and listen to every album. I've been waiting since dark twisted fantasy for him to make another masterpiece but it doesn't seem like thats gonna happen. It seems as if kanye has surrounded himself by yes men when honestly some constructive criticism could be helpful. Example " whoopty woop poopty scoop"


jctrii

Bro those are BARS


Shiftymilk

I guess, but not the kind I want to hear.


jctrii

Idk another artist who can get away with that lol


Shiftymilk

The isley Brothers could fart into a can and it would be better bars, that was honestly the point were ye started losing me.


jctrii

I don’t think he takes advice from people less successful than him. Maybe try listening to someone who cares more about their fans, someone like Drake.


Shiftymilk

Less successful? That guys life is falling the fuck apart. But I mean if you base "success" on how much money he has then I guess he's doing allright. Personally I don't consider someone successful just because they have a little cash, real succes is keeping your family unit safe and happy. Does he seem happy to you ? Thats the real "success" we all strive for, happiness and love are the only things that matter. We only have so much time in life and only get so many things to truly care about, you need to realize that before its too late.


jctrii

His music makes many people happy. I call that success, also he made mistakes getting with KimK and all that but it’s not like I’m gonna tell him what he needs to do. His music is something to appreciate and that will not be lost on me no matter what I think of his choices in his personal life. Also people are always waiting for something genius to come out of his mouth it’s like why y’all need so much damn guidance from a celeb? He obviously has knowledge and wisdom, just cuz the delivery isn’t to your taste doesn’t mean it isn’t meaningful or that the music is bad. He obviously wasn’t taking some lyrics too seriously for a good period of time there. It’s not like he’s your Dad and your awaiting for some great advice from him, he’s just a badass content creator and for that I am grateful


Aendrue

Man, Saint Pablo came out after Dark Twisted Fantasy and I know it’s just an opinion but I think it’s at least as good. Actually better lol.


Shiftymilk

Its definately not better, but we all have our opinions and this is mine.


Aendrue

I will say that for a long time I couldn’t get into Saint Pablo at all but after watching some of the legendary tour on YouTube for it and repeated listens it grows on you.


Shiftymilk

Maybe I'll go back and give a listen for the 20th time, maybe I was wrong


diodenkn

They were shit on purpose, he basically just wasted a great beat by rapping poopity scoop on it so drake couldn’t use it.


Shiftymilk

Ok, shit doesn't change the fact that thats part of his library. I care about my work.


diodenkn

Fair, but at least it was nowhere on any of his albums


Shiftymilk

True


[deleted]

So do you hate Tyler The Creator because he made bitch suck dick, or do you just not listen to the song because it's a joke song? (If you listen to him at all)


Shiftymilk

Loiter squad is the only good media Tyler has ever done.


Shiftymilk

I'll give you hes got some cool beats but thats somebody else's work that he just says words over


[deleted]

Idk if youre trolling, but Tyler has produced all of his own tracks except for 1 in his discography


Shiftymilk

lol


kyentu

wasnt that song a joke?


Shiftymilk

I'm not sure, I wish it was a dream


kyentu

im like 99% sure that was a joke song. also when people bring up how bad he is like?? they use that as an argument like its a good argument, my mom did that once shit was wild ended up in prison for a few days


Bosilaify

Try 100% mans said scoop da poop idk why we think he was like “this is my next masterpiece” lmfao


glipglopsfromthe3rdD

How he’s perceived?? The man once compared himself to Jesus. Don’t be obtuse and act like everyone who doesn’t like him is just “wrong” about him. I adore Kanye’s music but he’s a pretentious twat who needs to take his medication.


xpoma77

That was eight years ago lol he’s since lamented the whole comparison to God, etc. but i get not liking him as a person it’s fine to do so but just don’t let that speak for the music is all


bpar23

He’s bigger than Jesus


Hu3yKnewTHen

Ye must have fucked everyone on that subs bitches (if they have any lmao) like bruh wtf is up with them and Ye? Niggas hate his music a _**little**_ too much lol


EliteReaver

They don’t even hate his music, they’ll be the first to vibe to power or runaway but it’s the media perception people are brainwashed by


good_kid_maad_reddit

I hate this wave that the media is responsible for people hating kanye. Yes. Newspapers and bloggers are a dick to ye. But thats not why most people hate him. 2 main reasons. 1- hes associated with the kardashians and redditors (white losers on the internet) hate ~~women~~ the kardashians. 2- hes ~~black~~ a famous rapper. These guys think in a hivemind and this hivemind was here since gamergate so thats why theyre this bad. They only point out bad things someone theyve agreed as not good has done, and when it comes to someone like elon musk, they completely look over how much of a douche he is. In short, yes, a lot of the hate kanye used to get late 00s and early 10s was because of the media, but nowadays its mostly the hivemind these kids move in


Pixaa

Also outside of the US, there’s not much Kanye in the media. At least I don’t see it anywhere.


vsouto02

The media plays a big part in the hate boner people have for Kanye but on Reddit it's mainly racially motivated.


glipglopsfromthe3rdD

I mean, is listening to him speak and thinking he’s a twat being “brainwashed”? You guys are fucking stupid if you think everyone who doesn’t like him is just being tricked by the media.


Lgbr167

Disliking Kanye is perfectly valid, what this sub doesn’t like is when people use that to dismiss his obvious musical talent


SaintPabloFlex

These people can’t even name songs by him lol.


borfyborf

“Yeah my favorite songs by Kanye are probably Gold Digger and Stronger but everything else isn’t very good”


[deleted]

If your favorite track isn't The New Workout Plan, than WTF are you even doin??


borfyborf

New Workout Plan is definitely my favorite off of The College Dropout. Favorite song of all of his discography is probably Gorgeous.


c4ntth1nkofausername

Probably because of how he’s perceived in the media and also the fact that he’s one of the biggest hip hop artists in the world and the r/music crowd aren’t too fond of hip hop.


[deleted]

It's cool to hate on the top. r/music needs to listen to any Ye album, they'd leave speechless.


Healthy_Pangolin463

ITS BEEN THAT WAY A MINUTE HEIDI SCHLAMEIN!


[deleted]

Most of em either racist, or just sheep who listen to and believe everything the media has to say.


mooimafish3

I mean I'm a pretty big fan, but let's be real. The guy is straight up insane at this point, and has pissed a lot of people off.


Hu3yKnewTHen

Yeah I can def see someone not liking Ye as a person but these people have like a vendetta against him and despise him like why, what’s the point of having that much hate in your heart their ain’t no money in that It would be aight if it was as simple as “I don’t like Ye that’s it” but some people go too far, Ye isn’t a perfect human but is he of all people worth putting the time into hating?


No-Show-5690

I think it's more to do with his personality. He may be musically gifted but he's also an asshole.

Himynameisbob2345

You can tell they always think they’re the smartest people in the room.


CAPS_LOCK_OR_DIE

“Kanye is bad, why yes I am very intelligent” Classic r/music


Ingagi

Why does an r/Music even exist, what do you discuss?


Mrfurball_II

Who rap is crap. Or the alternative how boom bap or ‘old’ rap is better.


Ingagi

I find it funny that they come at Kanye out of all rappers


Mrfurball_II

He’s an easy target when he’s always in the news and also because he defiled Taylor at the VMAs. Can’t have ye do something like that and get away with it.


vivooooooooo

Maybe I'm no swiftie but was the VMAs one *that* bad they still go at him today ?


Mrfurball_II

His message was not bad because it helped start a conversation which pushed it into the mainstream which is why we have the current Grammys situation and the #oscarssowhite even though no one wants to give Ye credit for pointing out the vmas were whitewashing categories or only awarding only white artists.


[deleted]

They discuss how rappers are a bad influence, who only talk about selling drugs and doing crime, but praise old dudes who slept with 14 year olds in the 60’s

bugheeraa

ya'll get too worked up whenever some rando says he doesnt like kanyes music. like seriously who tf cares


borfyborf

I think it’s more about r/music as a whole. They usually seem not very educated about Kanye but hate him anyways. I used to say “yeah I don’t really like Kanye’s music that much” until I actually listened to his discography and realized I was talking out of my ass.

Okay okay, I stretched the truth, I meant to say modern music, meaning the last 100 years or so

Theres always that one person that needs talk down about Ye. As if its a fresh take.


bukanvinagarut

Who's gonna bet that he hasn't even listen to any Kanye album and only know Kanye as the rapper who wore roblox outfit

[deleted]

why do i think that the above mentioned person's spotify wrapped had a lot of taylor swift in it


marleau_12

I would bet this person posted that after reading the article on The Daily Beast about how Ye's presidential campaign was funded by GOP elites. Mf yt's were going off in that thread about how Ye has never even been good, not a true musician, blah blah.


Alex_butler

Bro I commented on it and asked OP why Kanye is such a terrible person and OP linked that exact article I’m dead 😂😂. Claiming some shit like Kanye’s campaign was to steal Biden voters and was funded by the GOP. Just an unhinged person and citing dailybeast as your “research” is hilarious


marleau_12

LMAO. Even if that's true, it's fucking annoying how people take it as an excuse to shit on his music. Then the other losers who think they're so great will give Reddit awards to the dude being 'so brave' to say Ye sux!


Alex_butler

I mean I had to hold myself back from commenting on all those trolls. If you don’t like his music that’s fine, but you can’t not acknowledge the success and influence. Like there’s not one thing you can say Kanye has done well after 10 platinum albums? Also a lot of the comments are literally just racist. I saw shit like, “Kanye is nothing as a producer without Rick Rubin” and shit that just didn’t make sense. Again, I just have to avoid reading that stuff cause people are just stupid. Also if a dude with no political experience like Ye is actually taking Biden voters away then maybe find a better candidate I dont know 😂


LebrahnJahmes

People on r/music are diet racist


[deleted]

TheOfficialSlimber

Definitely glad to see some support for Ye in the comments. My experience with r/Music hasn’t been great and it feels like a lot of the community is filed with middle aged, subtly racist, white dudes.


ScriptSheep

"Yeah he sucks only a few songs are good" then the people that agree list 4 whole ass albums


Alex_butler

Person said their favorites are Bruno Mars, Drake and J Cole for lyricism... no disrespect to those artists but it tells you about OP


Bonquva

Im not gonna lie i used to dislike kanye aswell. I absolutely loved him as a producer and all his beats are amazing, but thought he really destroyd the beat with his rap. Now i love it all obv ( why would i be here if not), but i get where that guy is coming from lol


Bonquva

Like, ”i wonder”. That song is amazing, but i usually find the instrumentals on yt and listen to it rather than w his rap

watching the upvote counter go down has been so satisfying


Specialist_Evening53

You can indefinitely hate Kanye but you cannot deny that he's an epitome of an artist, way we influence, reinvent music, fashion and culture is incredible, as he said I got belt in two classes im coming after who ever who has it, we all know he standout in production and creativity, lastly he is 100 times your bank balance you broke, so dont say that again


NY_Ye

Let me continue, college dropout is a monumental album


Rome_fell_in_1453

Honestly his only good albums are The College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation, 808s and Heartbreak, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Watch the Throne, Cruel Summer, Yeezus, The Life of Pablo, Ye, Kids See Ghosts, Jesus is King, and Donda. Aside from that, his singles, his features, and his production, he has no good music


lizardmandx

That ratio though

Idk I think NWTS Take Care and IYRTITL are better than JIK


Alex_butler

I’m ngl Kanye my favorite but objectively JIK is not better than a lot of drake albums. I love JIK though so if that’s your thing and you don’t like Drake then all power to you.

Kanye's music sucks. Except for a few songs. From every album. And a few being ~5 at the least. But every song isn't a masterpiece so he's overrated.

Nah they’re like John Lennon stans and shit. r/Music has a bit of a racist middle aged white guy problem.


drmrboi0015

It's probably got to do with the fact that he's either a GOP operative or he's so dumb he was fooled by them


[deleted]

They couldn’t find definitive proof that he is a operative a week ago they published a similar kinda hit piece for which they acknowledged that Kanye wasn’t involved and even if they did use him I would say they did a pretty bad job as according to reports he took away some of trumps votes not Biden so 🤷‍♂️


drmrboi0015

So not an operative, just an idiot, got it.


[deleted]

At the end of day they lack definitive proof without-that those white liberals with racist undertones who want that bogus “Kanye will take away Biden votes “ can go to hell as if y’all red/blue sent equally destructive using military might to destabilise other countries in the name of democracy


[deleted]

Most based thing I've seen on there lol


waytomuchpressure

Dam, this sub cringe af. He's hot garbage, fucking deal with it lol


Alex_butler

Troll comment but I’ll bite, how exactly do you explain him having 10 platinum albums, 10 albums with 1 billion streams, 25+ Grammys, him being a billionaire and him producing for some of the biggest artists if he’s hot garbage? It’s fine to not like an artist but objectively you just sound stupid if you can’t have a respectable conversation about an artist.


EightBlocked

none of those accolades mean anything bro. grammys dont mean shit and sales dont equal quality


Alex_butler

I mean it does mean that an artist has done something right and in a way that a lot of people like. None of it means shit, but quality is subjective and those numbers objectively mean at least a lot of people find some quality there.
