    Producers may still be trying to emulate Dre's big budget sound
    Hov would still be Hov, but Kanye's impact on the back half of his catalogue would be missed
    Gansta rap may still be relevant
    50 Cent's career post-Curtis may have went differently
    40 and Drake would have never made it past 2007
    Toronto would not be the hotbed it is today
    Pusha T would still be Pusha T of the Clipse
    Common's best album to date wouldn't exist
    J. Cole would not exist in his current form, if at all
    Super collaborations (ex. Swagga Like Us) may not have existed
    Rap tours would not have the production quality they currently have
    Auto-tune would forever be a gimmick
    Hip-hop would lose its greatest visionary of all time

    The major difference would be that albums would still be the works of one artist, with some producers to help him.
    Kanye popularized the concept of making an album with 20-30 persons.

    That would be a major difference in the music industry
