Also, his being the single most influential male cultural force in music and fashion over the last half decade doesn't hurt.Popeye_Card wrote:Kanye has a much-deserved bad rep.

I do really dislike the skits on the College Dropout album, in part because of that influence, and also in part because they are [expletive] dumb.bob thrill wrote:Also, his being the single most influential male cultural force in music and fashion over the last half decade doesn't hurt.Popeye_Card wrote:Kanye has a much-deserved bad rep.

I mean, I get what he is saying--you don't need a college education to be successful. But is that really the message you want to pound home to youth?

Re: People who hate Hip Hop Music
All skits in hip hop are dumb. I don't know why they exist and I've hated them since I was 13 and heard the one on Eminem's album where the ICP guys blew each other.

Excellent point. The only ones that are occasionally funny are Wu-Tang skits when they are clearly baked.bob thrill wrote:All skits in hip hop are dumb. I don't know why they exist and I've hated them since I was 13 and heard the one on Eminem's album where the ICP guys blew each other.

That's the one, and you nailed it. I actually heard the song at the Bulls pre-game (clean version), and asked my son what it was.bob thrill wrote:African American Gentlemen In Paris?

99 Problems is another one I like - not so much the music but I think the lyrics are pretty strong.

If by "strong", you mean "STRONGLY DEMEANING TO WOMEN", you are correct.jim wrote:
