[Deleted member 107398]

We aint getting a new album or single in 2014... mark my words.

Posted by me 11/3/2014. Only got a few more weeks to prove me wrong 'Ye... .

Pull a ninjahood and put that SN up for deletion if neither happens

Theophilus "Vibes" Album is not talked about enough. Beautiful album. Kanye was the executive producer.

To say kanye is the most influential rapper would be essentially saying he is the best rapper.

Kanye has NEVER been the best rapper.

Let me preface my statements again by consistently saying I'm a huge kanye fan and have always been. Ever since people were questioning his sexuality for rocking pink polo's.

A lot of you guys put kanye on an extremely high pedestal because he put you on Jordan retros and had a hard to acquire Nike sneaker. I'm gonna need you guys to get a grip on reality

Kanye>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>spidey

The devastating, extensive trove of leaked documents from the recent hack on entertainment company Sony's servers has thus far revealed details both charmingly hilarious and, well, not-so-funny—and the juicy tidbits keep on coming. The Daily Beast reports on an email dug up from August 4 of this year between Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman Amy Pascal and Elon Rutberg, Kanye West's creative director, to discuss an ambitious feature-length film involving Kanye in some way, shape, or form.

"I supervise all of Kanye's film and media projects, and we have a major film project coming up that involves both cinematic and technological innovation, so I naturally thought Sony and wanted to reach out," Rutberg wrote in the email. "We premiered a multi-screen cinema experience to great response at Cannes 2012, and are looking to take the storytelling to the next level with a feature length film, shot for an immersive cinema experience."

Another email dated August 7 of this year between film producer James Weaver, actor Seth Rogen, director Evan Goldberg, and Pascal details a planned cameo from Kanye in a Christmas Eve-themed film due next year that's set to star Rogen and Joseph Gordon-Levitt and directed by Jonathan Levine (who previously directed the Rogen and JGL-starring 2011 film 50/50). "We'll have an XMAS tease for 2015," Pascal claimed. "We have a specific idea to attach to THE INTERVIEW that will crush. Seth, Joe, and [Anthony] Mackie reenacting the scene from BIG on the floor piano at FAO Schwartz with KANYE WEST. It's ******* awesome."

Not music news but Apparently Ye is really trying to get a project of his Greenlit.

What makes kanye the most influential? Kanye is a prominent rapper correct? Yet everyone in here that quoted my post have overwhelmingly agreed that kanye is not the best rapper right now nor was he ever. So if he isn't the best at his craft, how/why is he so influential? What did he influence? Is he influential because you guys didn't know Air Jordan 6's look good with flannel? I'm gonna need you guys to get a grip on reality. This is the reason kanye is making all this left field *** music and is waiting tons of time between albums because he wants to sew givenchy shirts with Roberto Tisci. Y'all got him so gassed

Fam I'm serious. Why do we always have to prematurely coronate people. Let 'ye have his time then when it's all said and done we rank him.

And yes kanye said him and Don C are not only the reason we wear retro air Jordan's, but are also the reason Nike releases them so often

 

[str8drop]

Nah I see what you saying and I agree

I was talking about being serious about him really putting everybody on retro's

Agreed. SUPER HOT Line and the song is just not getting old to me.

I think you have some valid points, but to come in to the kanye thread and be downplaying his accomplishments and influence is just hating really, typing up paragraphs. Go make some moves of your own, rather then critiquing what others do or what they have done.

"To whoever think their words affect me is too stupid and if you can do it better than me then you do it." -KW.

 

[illphillip]

Go make some moves of your own, rather then critique others.

It's a message board fam. We're here for discussion and no one is above criticism.

That's life.

Doesn't mean people ain't making their own moves.

Plenty of people in my field are making moves and some of them don't always agree with what I do or how I do it. And they're entitled to their opinions.

And I don't view it as "hating". Which is just an awfully inappropriately overused slang term.

Doesn't bother me any. Nor should anything we're saying about Kanye bother you. Especially if some of the points are "valid".

I'm not criticizing kanye but more so criticizing his fanbase for being so one track minded when it comes to kanye. All I simply asked was "what makes kanye the most influential?" and have yet to receive an answer....

He was rapping about different **** in a time where it wasn't so popular to do so. And one could say his production.

Hey we're all entitled to an opinion right, it didn't bother me, the man doesn't pay my bills, i just thought he was being unfairly undermined for what he has accomplished in his field is all. |I but a lot of things get lost in translation via text conversations, if that's the case I apologise.

Repped, this is so true. One glance over at the kanyetothe forums will confirm this :x

For my opinion on the answer to your question.

Tbh I think, his influence actually spurred from his ability to go against the grain with his subject matter along with his way of thinking, at a time when all "rappers" were gangsters, wore baggy clothes and rapped about shooting their guns killing people, selling narcotics. not to say that Kanye did not do this.

He stood up and said I will talk about my emotions, my dreams, pain and struggle given to you with my ambitions for a better life. All the while wearing something he couldn't pronounce he wasn't afraid to say what he thought.

He did push the envelope and evolve from this and took the genre/rap game to new places, redefining it, he used his initiative to remove himself from that stereotypical box he was expected to be in and took that risk of being who he wanted to be and wearing what he wanted to wear and doing what he wanted to do, risky but ultimately becoming a innovator and a leader over a follower in his respective field, it worked for him and that opened the doors for a lot of these new indie etc rappers/artist you see today.

Overrated yes maybe so. But he did make moves that changed the scene as we know it. Very witty lyrics, catchy hooks/flow, sublime production. He is a genuinely talented and creative human being, with a nice eye for fashion, all of this is let down by a arrogant, immature, ignorant, obnoxious ego.

It's all perception.
