I'm done, there's plenty of other good music out there. Go to hell, Kanye.

Kanye and his music have always been shit.
Never was a fan, and at some point I realized I liked their songs far more without the lyrics. I understand their music has a huge legacy, but I just don't see it. Give me DOOM every time.
Weak-ass flow could never hold a candle to DOOM (rip).
Or Posdnous.
Or J-live.
Or Black Thought.
Or Pharoah Monch.
Or Grand Pubah.
Or Chubb Rock.
Or Masta Ace.
Or... ...the point is I could fucking go on here for a bit and not run out of talent that not only eclipses Kanye, but precedes him and will outlast the relative dryer lint he's contributed to our shared culture. He's garbage.
Mmmmmgar.... mmmmmbhaaauge.
Dunno, dark twisted fantasy is a banger of an album. Can't listen to it now due to the artist's recent actions, but it's genuinely a good album. Fuck Kanye and his enablement of fascism, there's no need to pretend that he never did anything cool - as if that would make his actions any less terrible.
That's just wrong. If you want to hate on him for this Nazi shit, I'll absolutely agree with you, but saying his music is bad is objectively incorrect. He has made the best albums ever.
It's subjective. Remember that not everyone shares the same opinion 🙂
truth be told, when I first saw Kanye's name on a music video, I thought it was a typo for Kayne lol
I take issue with you calling a subjective art form shit.
Like we can agree something isn’t for you, but calling something subjective shit is just silly really.
P.S. Fuck Kanye.
Edit: Anyone care to enlighten me as to where I am mistaken here? So I can learn.
You're wrong because you're being needlessly obtuse.
There's no reason to addend "in my opinion" to the end of what are clearly and obviously inherently subjective topics.
It wasn't a blanket statement until you decided to disingenuously disregard the implied non-subtle subtext.
I've always hated this shit. "One Directions sucks" "Well that's just your opinion!" No fucking shit, what the fuck else would it be??
I do apologise. I sometimes struggle with what people say and trying not to think literal about it. I will try and do better.
I would ask that you do the same, as calling me disingenuous isn’t quite right as it was a misunderstanding of language on my part.
Fair criticism, and fair to call me on it. I apologize for the unnecessary ire I injected and wrongfully targeted at you. Cheers.
Thank you and I appreciate you taking the time to reply and apologise.
you didnt make a mistake. kanye made great music, but hes a shitty person. if everybody stopped listening to music made by shitty people there'd be a lot less music in the world. led zeppelin were pedos (at least page was for sure) and they are still revered to this day as rock gods. just seems hypocritical to me
Thanks. I do think it is acceptable to separate the art from the artist.
Not calling the whole art form shit, just his.
Then what, aside from excrement, can you call shit.
Again. That’s subjective my guy.
I don’t really like Kanye, well runaway slaps hard.
I don’t like Wagner but to call him shit would be silly too. Some people don’t like Beethoven, is he shit?
You've answered your own question. Art is subjective. Fuck you and fuck Beethoven.
You have me worried, what has Ludwig done?!
Then I think it would have been better if OP kept their opinions on music out of it and condemned the dude for being a literal Nazi or added imo.
Fuck me fine, but don’t come at Beethoven like that. I’ll fight you for my dawg.
His late String Quartets are musical perfection. As are Symphonies No. 3/5/7/9.
Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
See how this works?
I have address above that I sometimes struggle with not taking the literal meaning of what someone is saying and tried to explain how I will work on this in the future.
Please don’t attribute to malice what can be explained away by a mistake.
