    I see where you're coming from.. But I think it's time. Can I tell you a secret? The other day there was a little slip up. I was driving, and then a song called "0-100" came on.

    Keep this between us, I enjoyed it!! And I felt so bad about it that I had to reevaluate my whole relationship with Yeezus. Idk, Now I feel it's best for the both of us if I move on

    Dare Iz A Darkside is a classic, Whut? Thee Album and Muddy Waters are very good too.

    I know what you're doing, just saying, because I can't really think of a bad Kanye beat except from the couple of beats that've been already mentioned, yeah

    I've liked your opinions in the past, so i just might take this into consideration. But i'll let you know right now - Idk if i can commit. It's just Redman has never worked with Kanye, so it is hard to take him as a legitimate artist.

    Yeah he honestly doesn't have much/if any production where i'm like "this is boring" or "this is un-listenable turn it off" I would say he does have a lot of production where i feel it's just sorta average. Like, IMO, i'll hear some of his beats and just be like "yeah it's kanye production" but it sounds good. just good though, nothing amazing.

    I'd say that a lot of other big name producers have put out some beats that are fucken trash, like worse than lunch money tier trash. Doubt there are many producers that are as consistent as Kanye.


    "numbers on the board beat is trash"
    you put your speakers on the highest volume right now, play the song and then tell me that s---. probably listened to it off your iphone speakers or something just as h--- if you think its trash.

    Lunch Money tho... :wth:Honestly think Ye went a little too far trying to make something "different"

    Problem with Yeezus/Numbers On The Board/Lunch Money is that they are or contain great beats but they're REALLY left field and I find it silly when dudes say that they're bad because they're "too different"

    Like that proves its not for you. Don't trash the music, go listen to whoever you like and quit bothering the guys who like avant-garde s---, f---in' plebs

    d---, just looked it up and you're right. Still one of Kanye's worst songs though.

    Lunch Money and Numbers on the Board are both bangers, f--- yall on about.

    That beat be did for Chief Keef on Nobody was a throwaway if I've ever heard one.
    Kanye's bad beats are the ones lazily sampled.
    Oh, and Madlib/Dilla/Preem never relied on having a team behind them as often.

    Only made the Mac one before my computer died on me. :sad1:

    I think it was intentionally jarring, if you look at the rest of the project its like that, I think it's Keef's new thing. And I don't mind it tbh

    Kanye nowadays got everyone and their mom co-producing anything he raps/croons over so I try not to mention the newer material. From his beginnings of ghost producing for D-Dot till 808s he's had an incredible level of consistency.
