I do agree though that Kanye is overhyped as a producer just because he is the only one producing in that style at the moment, and I don't believe that Kanye is the best producer in the music business or anything like that. But his new album is still great.

But Kany is being credited with branching out, and encorporating different musical genres into his own. When he branches out fully, and can make a full-fledged album of a complete other genre, then you get that name of pioneering cross-genres, as he is being called by many publications.

It's a great record, sure, but do I think he will forever change the soundscape of music on the path he is now? No.

I agree with you on this, I do think the media has put him in a high pedestal that most likely he does not deserve. I do believe it is a good album though.

9.5 on pitchfork :eek:

This is a good album. I bought it yesterday, I like it a lot but I don't think this is SO great. I'll be back after some more listens...

I haven't heard "College dropout" yet.

i agree here. even though the kanye west style is good, it is also temporary. i dont really see much of a difference kanye has right now that puff daddy had in the 90s. they are both one-trick ponies to me. puff samples completely 80s songs..kanye's samples and speeds up 70s R&B tunes.

we'll eventually get sick of it after a while.

for publications calling him the 'great producer' he is proves how dead the industry really is.

meanwhile Jay Dee continues to make kick ass hip-hop and 'still' nobody listens.

so when are the next 'beatles' coming to save our listening?
