I've just listened to this cd and I have to say I'm pretty impressed. I dont know much about hip-hop but this sounds and feels great! Kanye West dropped out of college and pursued his dream. That is because Kanye's particular path/pursuits do not require college study at this point and time in his life and he sings about his dreams, and it makes you think about the possibilities, the roads that lead you to your destiny. I reckon West is one of the very few rappers around that have a message, a good message that inspires people through their talent. I highly recommend it!!!! any comments?
Did you know, he was in a car accedent and had his jaw wired shut. He had to spit through the phone to finish his record. He tells you about it on the song. Through The Wire!! This is one my favourite album and Kanye is one my favourite rappers.
i like the fact that he's cocky about his music. it's pretty good from what i've heard, at least in comparison to other mainstream hip hop.
what songs, have yu heard. He has a right to be cocky about his music, his music has re-started the chicago hip-hop scene. Common has come back and new sensation such as Lupe Fiasco. He doesnt rhyme about being shot, he rhymes about stuff that matters to him and speaks his mind.
