    Em when he's at his best is one of the best ever man. Also he has done a lot of garbage but he's (for better or worse) the most unique rapper OAT.

    Ya the trend of music critics disparaging Kanye’s music because of his outside actions is disingenuous and lame at best, shitlib racism at worst. This dorky white guy’s thinly veiled attempt here leans towards the latter.

    I don’t even care for those 3 albums either, but Jesus is King would be a better choice and could easily be picked apart musically. Saying Ye and Donda are on that level is silly.

    It’s always interesting to see people’s different perspectives. ye isn’t the best album but I enjoyed it quite a bit when it came out. Jesus Is King is mediocre but there are some beautiful sounds on there… same with Donda. I think the rapping on ye is pretty alright. Jesus Is King and Donda is where most of his rapping became low effort freestyles

    Surprisingly I almost agree. Kanye has a few very strong nominees for this one...

    I guess someone had to take the bullet at #1 and Kanye is a more worthy target.
