Since Kanye West has already established himself as the greatest hip hop artist ever,
what does he have left to do to establish himself as the greatest music artist ever? He's one of the most influential artists there is and his six albums are six of the greatest albums ever released.
What more will it take? 1 more great classic album? 2 more? 3 more? Or do you not even think he is in the realm of achieving that status? |

as for the question at hand, banana asks a decent one so i will give my $0.02
he will probably only ever be appreciated by hip hop fans and african-americans. white america has decided to hate this guy for reasons they should hate Charlie Sheen, or name a rock star, but since he's real dark and real angry and he has the tenacity to actually say things that make white people think that racism isn't over (but of course kanye is the real racist) he's the worst person in the entire universe and is summarily rejected as being talentless, rejecting any possibility that he's doing even good things -- let alone, great, incredible, or taking hip hop to new places. if i was a research professor i would set up a study to see how much they'd like kanye beats with eminem rapping on them compared to the same beats with kanye rapping on them i bet they'd all be like OMGZ EMINEMZ AMAZORING AND STURFS AN KANEY JUST STEAL SONGS AND SUCK AT RAPS |

he's pretty much already achieved GOAT status... that was the purpose of dark twisted fantasy, to cement that. and anything else will probably me more of an artistic endeavor, like yeezus. or of course his collabs.
and yeah it sucks a lot of people know him as the crazy black dude but lets be honest, he does it to himself. a good artist does not a good personality make |

Besides the fact that the stuff I don't like from outkast is still way out there in experiment land so deserving of respect Roots did this for sure, i don't really think tribe went crazy places with music. maybe with rhyme but |

A Tribe Called quest arguably set the template for the Roots and jazz rap in general. So they even though they weren't as experimental as the Roots they were innovators and the Roots probably owe a lot to them.

The Roots are fantastic and easily one of the top tier live acts that you can see.

Even though I have a lot of respect for Yeezus and found it really interesting to listen to I have no desire to listen to any more than that first time.

Well that's fucking crazy because I've listened to that album more than any other album in the past year. It has so much replay value seeing as there is not a bad song on the album and it runs through pretty quickly so you can listen to it in one go easily just like The King of Limbs.

Rap isn't even close to being my favorite genre of music. I go through long phases where I don't listen to it at all. I come back to it every now and then.
